8 whole months - by delaney

guess who's 8 months! funny, huh?

my month started off a little rocky.

i decided i would pull myself up on things...

but then i didn't know how to get down... it was terrifying.

i'm no quitter though, so i kept working and working...

and working and working...

and now i'm a pro!

i pull myself up on everything!

and i play with everything.

it is so much fun, this growing up business!

i'm very helpful, all the time.

don't know what my mom would do without me.

i just love learning all about my world.

one thing i don't love, eating solids.

i mean, solid solids are okay, but usually only once or twice.

"you want me to eat what?"

and then i say, "no thanks. i'll stick to milk thankyouverymuch."

after some super huge messes i'm finally in size 3's.

(diapers of course)

and i've got the whole world in my hands.

and it's delicious.

in other news, i got a tooth! bottom left and she came in on september 18.

(so my mom can keep track, you know, she's not the best record keeper)

you can kind of see it here, if you look really closely.

doin' ma business under ma high chair.

hmmm, what else?

the park is pretty fun.

and beauty bark is delicious.

my mom already wrote about it, but i flew on my first airplane on august 30.

not my fav, but i was pretty patient.

and i got to meet lots of fun family, so it was worth it.

shhhh, don't tell anyone, but my mom's been shopping on the internets!

and shhhh again, addie and frankie have one too. :)

 i'm still pretty bald, but don't i have just the cutest little hands in all the lands?

i'm still super happy.

still sleep in my bed, still up till midnight most nights but my crazy mom and dad are trying to get my sleep better regulated by putting me to bed earlier.

sillies!

my eyes have gotten really dark, my ears are sticking out more and more, and i use my eyebrows all the time. there's no question which family i belong to!

 

 i love to play and sing and eat paper. i crawl into things and bump my head all the time. i'm still petite in size but long in length. i still like the bjorn and not the stroller. i'm still pretty friendly but i really know my family and if they walk away and i can't see them i can get a little irritable.

 i guess that's about it.

 until 9 months, peeps!

 

love,
