8 months

Mommy is so behind.  You have been 8 months since the 22nd and I am just now getting around to writing your update.  You are so close to crawling that we keep expecting you to do it any day now.  You get up on your hands and knees and rock back and forth like you're winding up to go.  However, when you do go, you just flop forward and crawl around on your stomach.

One of your favorite activities right now is to tip over the recycling box and go through all the papers and cardboard.  You love paper and there's always something new in that box every time you tip it over.  I let you play until you start eating the paper, then I have to take it away.  I'm sorry, but you really can't eat paper.

Your favorite toys are the rubber beaded teethers.  You have three different ones and love them all.  You almost always have one in your hand and you take them everywhere with you.  You hold on tight to them and won't let go.  When trying to change your clothes, I have learned to get you to switch hands because it is almost impossible to pry one from your hand.

Right now your favorite food seems to be pears.  You also like sweet potatoes and peaches.  You did not like squash!  You also love to drink water from mommy's cups.

You had your first trip to the pumpkin patch and you had so much fun.  You were looking all over the place at the people and the pumpkins.  It was so fun to see you enjoying it all.



We moved you into your own room and you are sleeping much better now.  I only have to nurse you once or twice instead of 5 times!  I miss having you in the room with me, but I do enjoy the extra sleep.

I love you so much baby girl and will try to do better at keeping up with documenting all your achievements.

*I forgot to mention that you have your first tooth now =)
