Continuing the habit of celebrating your months in new countries, you see out your eighth month in France.
It is a month during which you've desperately tried to crawl. It started by you pushing yourself forward from sitting onto your tummy, and for the first few weeks you actually moved backwards! Eventually you got the direction right, but it is still just a shuffle around the living room floor. Staying on all fours is still just that bit too difficult!
Another new development is you shaking your head vigorously from left to right, most of the time with the widest possible smile! This little action clearly makes you very happy.
Solid food is now well established, to the point where you don't need any breastfeeding during the day anymore. Night time is still where the problem lies though, and the good progress we've made in Finale over the summer holiday is all but gone!
Then, on the 28th August, we notice first sign of a little tooth! This is a big event as it follows months of furious dribbling and of course speculation about when the first appearance will be. Could it be that it is because of this that the night time routine has gone backwards?
