8

Guess What? I turned 8 months old last week. Being 8 months old means that I am learning new things & aquiring more skills (at least that's what my moms says)


First of all, I am now big enough to go to school with Mommy. Today was my first day! I was the littlest one there but don't let my petite (despite the rolls) size fool you. I was just as tough as those big kids that could stand & run & I could crawl right behind them. Here is a pic of me & Daddy right before I left for school. (Please note that I am wearing the outfit that my boyfriend Noah got me... I miss you Noah)


Also you can see in the pic (above) that I have learned to wave! I love to wave hello & goodbye & will wave to just about any person, animal, plant, car...well you get the point-I like to wave!

And since I am so big now, Mom painted my toenails to look just like hers! Don't you think they look pretty?



I am perfecting my sign language! I know how to say "more" & am learning "all done" & "thankyou". I know the word & the sign for "no" & I know that it means I have to stop doing whatever I am doing. My Mom says "obey all the way, right away" (she got that from my Aunt Jenn...thanks alot:)
I have started using a sippy cup & I love to drink water (just like Mommy).

"More Food Please"

And I am SO proud of my 6 teeth & will show them to whoever wants to see. Just a warning though, I do bite if you put your fingers in my mouth & it WILL hurt!
And I still LOVE to play with Bruiser. I like to pet him & sometimes he will get out of his bed so I can climb in (my mommy hates when I do that) You can't tell from the pic but Bruiser loves me just as much as I love him.


Now that I am 8 months, I am allowed to watch T.V. (only about 1 show/week). I like the baby einstein video & I especially love the puppets!




I decided a couple of weeks ago, that I was too big to take my last bottle at night so mom & dad changed my schedule a little. Now I get to eat dinner right before I take a bath & go to bed. I love bathtime & I always get to bring Monkey in the tub with me (he gets dirty too). I like watching the water come out of the faucet. Right before I get my pajama's on, I usually get really giggly. Mommy & Daddy will tickle me & we all laugh (right before I am suppose to go to sleep)

Bathtime is fun! (sorry uncle charlie for not covering up my ninnies)

I love my mommy & daddy! When daddy comes home from work, I try to give him the biggest smile ever & he always gets down on the floor to play with me!

This weekend I got to go over to JoJo & ChaCha's for a crawfish boil (all I got was a banana & puffs but it was still fun)

I love playing with my Mommy too! I like to be tossed up in the air or hung upside down. I also like to swing fast. Right after breakfast, when Mommy & I don't have to go to school we will go for a walk. Mom always walks me past the swings on the lakefront & we stop & swing higher & higher & then I smile bigger & bigger! I love swinging!

I am also trying to whistle like Mommy. I put my lips together but its really hard to make the sound. Can you whistle? I also learned how to click my tongue like Mommy...I will have to get a video for you so you will believe that I can do it!

I've saved my biggest trick for last...........................

I am pulling myself up (which I've been doing in my crib for awhile)! I can pull up on tables, couches, legs... anything AND I can walk around the table (very carefully with adult supervision)! If you want to see these pics & more you can click here
