My second-born is eight months old. We finally had a weigh-in, and she tipped the scales at 17 lbs, 1 oz. It seems like a lot has happened in the last month, but maybe that's not out of the ordinary? Her right top tooth is dropping, which means every time she latches on to nurse, I get nipped. She has also discovered she can click her teeth. We've discovered that she's not crazy about bananas. As far as new foods go, she has tried whole blueberries and raspberries. But her favorite new food is puffs. She has learned to feed herself puffs, and it's the cutest thing to watch. She's getting more proficient at drinking water from the sippy cup as well. She's not crawling yet, but she wants to. She can manage to pull herself into the crawling position in order to reach for things she wants, but after a little rocking back and forth, she sprawls to her tummy. Her newest trick, though, is clapping. It's by far the sweetest thing I've ever seen! Her concentration, her excitement....too precious. Her yeast infection in her neck finally cleared up after we got some prescription-strength ointment. And we finally left her in the nursery during church. Her new favorite toy is the activity table where she can stand and play. Her favorite game is playing peekaboo with sissy behind the couch after each feeding.
It was time to bring back the leg warmers for these photo shoots.
This expression cracks me up. It looks like a frown, but it's not.
Finally, McKinley clapping got her to perk up.
Her pink t-shirt is Momma's old shirt.
Gotta see what sissy's doing.
My favorite.
[clapping] We're finally done!
She has the cutest chubby cheeks! Can't wait to cuddle her when she gets here...if she lets me :)
