8 Months

The Bellie is growing up before our eyes.  She is full of non-stop energy.  We have learned to keep an eye on her as she can find her way into all sorts of stuff.  She will eat anything especially paper so we have to “sweep” up every room before we can set her down to crawl.  I made her some leg warmers because she was crawling holes in all her pants.  She has no fear and will crawl off any edge.  We had to get a gate so she wouldn’t go head first down the stairs.  A quick learner when it comes to getting around, she is pulling up and even starting to climb.  I was shocked when I wandered into the kitchen and discovered that she had climbed right up into the dishwasher.   She loves her bottle and eats lots of yummy food.  She babbles constantly and her favorite sound is adada. Her least favorite thing is getting her diaper and clothes changed as she hates being held still. I am grateful that she is a good sleeper.  She still naps in her car seat so running errands is a breeze. She also sleeps the whole night.  She is so easy and so much fun!  We sure do love our active and happy girl.
