Eight months old

Last Thursday you turned 8 months old. The time is going by so fast I am afraid to blink and miss something. You still attempt crawling, mostly scoot backwards or when you do plunge forward you fall on your face and get frustrated. You LOVE your mommy & me classes, so much that you are enrolled in two separate ones and mommy can't figure out which one you like most. You are generally a happy baby, but easily switch to a temperamental little lady. You enjoy your jumper, sitting on the carpet, laughing at the puppy patches, being held, baby wearing, being outside, eating anything (except green beans and peas) . You started soy formula again today, fingers crossed we don't run into any issues again. Your hair is getting long, you're still a Blondie with blue eyes. You are in 18 months clothes and weigh 22.25 pounds and 28 inches tall. You hate getting changed, taking naps, when food is taken away, being in your stroller, and anyone not paying 100% attention to you. You have brought such joy into mommy & daddy's lives. I look at you and all your accomplishments and I could cry at the beauty your father and I have created. We are so lucky to call you our daughter and grateful for every memory you bring into our hearts. Happy 8 months Deborah jean Alexander
