8 Months

I tried hard to do this before our big road trip, but it didn't happen. Then our computer wasn't working the entire time in Texas. We got back Monday night and had the computer fixed yesterday. So here we are at 8 1/2 months instead of 8. However, this was written at 8 months so surely that counts for somewhat on time!!! Lots to share later.

For now, here are a few new things the girl is up to.

- loves to play with toys
- use your finger to explore new and old things
- threw up for the first time thanks to the flu
- your face tells it all, there is no mystery
- extremely expressive hands and feet (moving and twirling)
- pretty much down to 4 breastfeeds a day
- you always eat dinner but rarely food throughout the rest of the day
- take 2-3 naps a day
- go down at night around 6ish and get up between 6-7 am
- you play with your tongue
- you want to crawl, but mostly you scoot backwards
- starting to be very verbal
- you haven't added a ton to your eating list, spinach, prunes, peas, green beans, oatmeal (which you don't like), yogurt (same), and a little bit of this and that of what we are eating. we can add a little banana to most things and you will eat it.
- you don't like to be in a room alone
- your top tooth on the side popped out kind of out of no where (makes #3)
- spent your last 2 days of being 7 months old on a road trip to New Mexico and Texas
- you are finally back on the same nap schedule as Cap
- almost always sleep on me for the entire Sunday morning gatherings
- you smile and give goo goo eyes to most people but do NOT want them touching you
- Cap is still the best at making you laugh
- you like to swing
- you like to be outside

I think her legs are stuck this way! She might be sitting too much:)

Most of the pics were a little more like this one! I kind of like it.

Enjoy,
