Eight Months

Dear Lila,

This past month you started a music class. It's so much fun!  We sing along, we dance, you get to touch the instruments, and then you go all CA-RAZY when they turn on the bubble machine! There are a lot of other babies your age there and you are starting to seem more interested in them, or perhaps their toys.  Yup, this week you crawled over to Jonah, and stole his toy -- from his hand.  Someone needs to learn about sharing.

Crawling is one of your favorite things to do right now.  You're still rockin' the army crawl but occasionally you get your trunk off of the floor, rock back and forth and then propel yourself forward.  You're a very, very fast crawler!  You especially love trying to crawl under the desk to get at the computer cables and wires.  Standing is another fave right now.  You stand holding onto the ottoman and seem so pleased with yourself.  Because you LOVE standing so much you are now trying to pull yourself up to a stand any chance you get.  That spells D-A-N-G-E-R for Mommy and Daddy!

You currently have two teeth!  I'm guessing that your holiday theme is going to be All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth. 

your pearly whites -- *please don't hate me for this when you are older

Our favorite part of the day with you is an hour before bedtime.  You turn into a super happy-ass!  You giggle uncontrollably at every noise, tickle, and pinch.  It's a really great way to end our day.

Happy Eighth Month Birthday Lila Bunny!

Mommy and Daddy
