Oh Evelyn - 8 months. And every day I think I am told that you seem like an 11 month old. I agree 100%. You are such a content little girl....just wanting to play. It's funny...most children are comforted by snuggles from mom, a pacifier. But you, you are comforted by a new toy. Some action. Anything that may interest you. When others ask to hold you....you don't really enjoy that - but at the gym you are content because there is so much to look at and to play with.
You are pretty. You really are. Your eyes are the most amazing blue and when you smile, it lights up the world Your entire face lights up.
You don't really enjoy pureed food these days - you would rather have the real stuff. No problem girlfriend . Real blueberries are better than the pureed ones anyway.
You are talking a lot more these days, and have a preference for baby dolls. And stuffed animals. You love having songs sung to you too.
You are certainly a MOMMA's girl. And while I enjoy this....it can be hard when your daddy wants to play with you too. You love him too...but I have to leave for you to really be happy and not constantly looking for me.
You sleep well....13 hours at night with one feeding and 2 - 1 hour naps during the day. However, you are pretty flexible (I think because you love action) and will adjust as needed. But, those naps must be in your crib.
Just the last week you've been in a storming phase...and needed more nursing to keep you happy. I don't mind, since you still go right back to bed afterwards.
I think the craziest thing about you is how active you are. Just this last week (so 8 months and a week) you decided to crawl upstairs at the Barton's house. Your daddy and I were both there to watch it.. All day long you pull yourself up on things. It's like you are always looking for something to stand up on! Move move move.
We love you little girl!
