8 months old - October 8, 2008

I'm posting a day late, but I didn't get any pictures uploaded last night. Our sweet baby girl is 8 months old! Here are a few 8 month fun facts:

-Elyse is very mobile now. She crawls more on her knees, though sticks with the army crawl on the hard floor. She pulls herself up to standing on just about anything.

-Her two bottom teeth look like they're fully grown in, but no others yet. She is enjoying her solid food more and loves the Gerber puffs.

-She's recognizing music! There is a song called "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz that she has heard a lot. She seems to like it. I noticed twice recently when the song comes on she perks her head up and looks over at the stereo. So cute! She also smiles at Mommy's weak attempt to sing along. Bless her heart.

-She loves to giggle. Sometimes she's so happy when she wakes up, she giggles at anything!

-She still loves, Loves, LOVES her big brother. She discovered she can make HIM laugh by making silly noises. Oh how fun to have the tables turned!

-Despite the love between the two, she is now getting into more of Eric's stuff. "MOM!"

-Now that the weather is not-so-hot, she loves the fresh air and sitting facing forward in her stroller (as opposed to being in the carseat and facing back).

-She might have about two more hairs since she was born...light brown. It looks like her eyes are going to stay a dark greenish color.

-She's a happy, beautiful girl that has stolen the hearts of her Mommy, Daddy and big brother!
