8 months

So much has happened and so fast with you. You've got two teeth and are working on your third one. Now you crawl everywhere. Even when we're outside you crawl off the blanket onto the concrete and keep going. You've got knees of steel. ;-) In the last month you've conquered pulling up. You are into everything. You have reminded me, yet again, that silence is bad. Usually if I don't hear from you or your sister tattling on you your into something bad. You still love putting shoes in your mouth when I walk into the kitchen. I walk around the corner, you throw the shoe down and crawl as fast as possible to get away. You love eating. You're doing great with finger foods. You eat so much more than your sister did. Dad and me have a hard time knowing when to add more food because we're not used to this appetite compared to Sophie. You're really getting into all the things your sister does. You so badly want to be doing the same things she does. She's so good at bringing the activities down to your level. Just today you tried feeding a baby doll. You were too fast at moving to capture a picture of it. Mom's almost done with her masters and you girls have been great since I can't devote as much time with you as I'd like. Just a few more months and you'll be one and mommy will soon be done. You're amazing smile is still so contagious. You make every day brighter!!
