8 Months...a little late

So yes, I have a lot to catch up on - one of those things being that B turned 8 months while Aunty Em and Jonas were here visiting last week! It was also Avie's 2 month mark - so we had fun comparing them! Here's what B's doing at 8 months...mostly for my remembrance - I know this isn't earth-shattering!!

- B eats baby food just ok - sometimes she doesn't care. Her favs are green beans, green peas, sweet potatoes, anything with apple in it, doesn't love puffs yet - she chews them and spits them out!

- She loves to sit on the floor and play with anything that isn't a baby toy (remote, cell phone, shoes, paper)

- She LOVES the toy her Nanny and Pa Pa got her where she can walk all around the house and bump into my legs!

- She learned to crawl this month and crawls all over the place! She particularly loves the furniture where the TV boxes are, and my basket of yarn...which can get messy.

- She loves Elle - she tries to crawl towards her but Elle is too fast - she has scared Elle with the walking toy thing (by running into her legs) so Elle pretty much runs whenever B gets that look in her eyes.

- She says "ma-ma" a lot - but I still don't think she knows what it means...she's working on "da-da" but right now it sounds like "ni-ni"

- She does ok in the car seat - not as good as she use to - but she's pretty tolerant of my errands :)

- She wears 9-12 mo clothing depending on the brand, she's in size 3 diapers.

- I think she weighs around 22 pounds and I have no idea how tall she is but it seems to be kind of tall

- She LOVES her bath - she could spend hours in the little ducky that is her bath tub (thank you Grimms!)

- She is a very happy baby - she giggles a ton and loves attention - she is smiling more at strangers and absolutely LOVES it when daddy comes home. She grins so big and wants to go see him (even with his nasty scrubs on!)

Here are a couple of 8 mo pics...
