8 Months!

Our baby girl is 8 months old!  Honestly this past month is the first month that has gone by slow.  I actually had to look in her baby book to make sure I didn't forget 7 months!!!! Haha!





Baby girl is all over the place!  She is so quick it's hard to keep up with her because she is sooooo busy busy busy!  She pulls up on anything she can reach, whether it's a table, window seal, or your leg!  She can stand by herself for a short little bit and she can do it for a longer period of time with each passing day.  She is absolutely amazing!



Loving some Disney Jr  (Thankfully this TV is now mounted on the wall!)


2nd time in the pack-n-play...trying to get out already!

She is such a talkative little girl and we adore hearing her sweet voice.  She is so hard to get to laugh.  Of course she giggles all the time but that true belly laugh is still hard to pull out of her.  They best at that is Daddy for sure.  :)

Her new thing is shaking her head "No".  Ironically it's normally on point.  I ask her if she wants more food and she shakes her head "No", etc.  Whether she knows what she is doing or not, it's hilarious!

We are still going full force with breastfeeding and loving it.  It's such an adventure and I adore being able to feed my baby girl all she needs.  She gets solids at lunch and dinner but she doesn't always eat them.  It truly depends on the day as to whether she is interested in the solids or not.  Some days she can down 2 peach slices and a little chunk of cheese and toast and the next day she nibbles on a steamed carrot and doesn't touch anything else.  Either way she always gets breast first so I know she is getting all she needs!! One funny thing about her eating habits is that she loves fresh peaches  but not the skin.  She always eats the peach slice and spits out the skin still in tact!  It's wild what babies will do if you simply allow them to explore and learn on their own with food.  We simply love baby led weaning!


Cheese and toast!


Adventures in feeding herself yogurt!  So much fun!

Some of her favorites are...pulling hair, playing with paper and water bottles, her activity table and of course she is still a paci monster.  She is always bouncing and jumping.  Everyone always makes the comment that she makes their arms so tired.  That's my crazy girl! She absolutely adores music and she still has to hold on to a blanket when she sleeps just like her Mommy! Although I hold on to a body pillow!  ;)

I really wish I knew how much she weighed but we don't have a scale and don't go back to her Dr until her 9 month check up.  So I guess I will just keep wondering.  She has all the normal output so I know she is growing.

Adelaide is such a happy baby.  She always wakes up smiling and that makes me so happy!  We love her to pieces.

Until next time...enjoy the cuteness!  ;)



Crazy child...aka...Alex Jr.


3rd time at Yum Yums!  She was even given a quarter by a stranger!  :)
