Our girl is 8 months old and boy is she getting to be a handful! She is so funny and keeps us entertained. Here are some highlights about her at 8 months:
Is very close to crawling-she will put one hand forward, one knee and then stop. However, she rolls everywhere and finds a way to get where she wants to go.
She stands with her legs straightened and hands on the floor.
She loves,loves her brother-she smiles and laughs at him all the time.
She loves to have silky blankets on her when she sleeps-she rubs anything silky on her face.
She has a deep belly laugh and when she laughs it is so sweet!
She is still not an adventurous eater-only likes sweet potatoes, green beans,applesauce, oatmeal and blueberries. She no longer cares for prunes and doesn't like trying new things.
She likes to ride around the kitchen in her walker while I cook supper.
Tries to figure things out-she will investigate things by holding them and examining them closely.
Starting to have some stranger anxiety. She is aware when we leave a room and will let us know when she doesn't like it!
Sits up very well and can go from laying down to sitting up on her own.
Says "dada" all the time and talks to herself.
Loves music and dancing! Will start jumping and moving when she hears music.
Madison and Peyton had their pictures made on Sunday with their cousins. They came out great! We are so excited for Christmas this year and can't wait! Here are a few samples of the pictures:
