Ellie will be NINE months old next week... Oops... Where did month eight go? I lost it somewhere...
Well, she's got SIX teeth now so month eight hasn't really been a huge blast.
After much anticipation, Noelle started crawling right at 8 months. I thought that maybe she'd be content with her new-found freedom for at least a couple of months... but no... Wednesday I went to fetch her from her nap and there she was STANDING in her crib smiling across at me. Now she's a standing machine {though she's still too wobbly and either gets stuck and cries or falls and cries or gets "rescued" and cries. Oh what fun! And today, she climbed her first stair! I feel like we need to go and live in one of those bouncy house thingy's until she's a bit steadier...
and I need for TIME to SLOW DOWN! {That's not too much to ask, is it??} When Ellie was born, our neighbours gave her a sleeper. I remember pulling it out of the gift bag with Ellie sleeping on my lap the day we got home from the hospital {she was 5lbs 1oz} and thinking this wont EVER fit her. Well, it does. Daddy put it on her last night after her bath. Sigh.
I promise to do better with the 9 month update.
