8 months

Time is just going by faster everyday it seems! Our little diva has quite the temper at times, especially when you take her out of the bath tub (she can play in there for hours) and when you take her "toys" away. I use the term toys, but really it could be anything....a grocery sack, hanger, cell phone, remote, chip bag.....why do we even buy toys???

Just after turning seven months Addy really got into getting on all fours and rocking, but hasn't quite mastered the crawling yet. She does somewhat of an army crawl or rolls to get to what she wants. As much as I am ready for it, I know once it happens things will have to change in our house and I will wish she wasn't already crawling.

She has tried lots of food this month....Sweet Potatoes, Green beans, Squash, Carrots (and I'm sure there are others, but I can barely remember what she ate yesterday let alone a month ago). I gave her a few Puffs the other day, but she didn't seem to interested. She had a hard time getting them in her mouth. They were in her palm and she tried to stick her whole fist in her mouth. Maybe in a few weeks they will be more exciting.

Not many big firsts this month. We did make a trip to Dallas to see the fam, and my mom came up for a few days to see us. She did attend her first wedding reception and made it till 9:30 before she passed out.

She's still doing great with therapy, and is progressing well!

She is definitely not a happy camper when she is left alone. She sees you walk out, immediately boo-hoos and then you walk back in and she starts laughing. This child is spoiled I tell ya!

She goes down between 7-8 most night and wakes up about 7:00 or 7:30.  She normally takes about a 1.5-2 hour morning nap and a 2-3 hour afternoon nap. Taking 6 ounces at each bottle(lately has started playing with her bottle towards the end and is such a wiggle worm) She is still in 3-6 month clothes, but is definitely ready to move up to 6-9 months....Mommy is trying hard to keep her in these summer clothes since most of what she has in 9 months is Fallish and its still to warm for those. Moving her up to size 3 diapers once we run out of these last few 2's!

I am guessing she is right around 16.5 pounds or so!
