You are such a happy little girl, and are already such your own person.
What's life like for you as an 8-month-old?
Well, you chew on just about everything, as your teeth are all trying to pop through all at once:
You've quickly gone from no teeth,
to two teeth...
to now three teeth!
You clap! (and LOVE to clap!)
You stand up wherever, and however, you can. Sometimes you get very creative in how you try to get to standing, too!
And sometimes you try standing during night or nap time. One night you were crying and crying away in your crib and we finally went in and found that you were "stuck" standing up!
And one nap time, your Mom came in and found you sleeping like this:
Was that a "fell asleep standing up and slid down?" Who knows?
You also LOVE your big brother. You play with him, you goof around with him, you LAUGH at his jokes. This is the best.
Oh, and, new as of last Thursday: you're officially crawling...when you want to! No need to roll where you want to go any more.
Oh, and now, since I took too long to write this post, you're trying to walk too! You can do it pretty well with some hand-holding, and you're even starting to use the walker!
You LOVE pulling on hair (whether it's mine or Pops' or our friend Oliver's or your brother's). Nothing will make you squeal quite like pulling someone else's hair!
You are now into FEEDING YOURSELF some finger foods! And you do it pretty well. But the dogs are ever hopeful that you'll toss them some. You're also very vocal too! A trait that really comes out when we sit down to eat.
Your sleep is really day to day...sometimes you sleep well. But now that you're cutting tooth #4, sleep is back to being pretty hard to come by.
You WAVE to your Mommy and Daddy, and light up when we enter a room.
You LOVE the baby in the mirror, and are even more fascinated by other real babies!
You are a cuddler. You are a giggler. You're a busy little girl, with busy little feet and legs. You are fearless (crawling straight for the sprinkler!)
You are a rock star.
You are love.
You are 8 months old!
