8 Months!!!

How is it possible that our baby is 8 months old??? I really can't believe it. Time is literally flying by. It's been awhile since I last posted and I don't really have an explanation for why other than laziness on my part. Jenna seems to be changing daily and we are having an absolute ball with her. At 8 months Jenna is/has:
  • About 20 pounds
  • Wearing size 6-12 months
  • Wearing size 3 diapers
  • Eating 3 meals a day with 3-4 bottles throughout
  • Drinking water from a sippy cup
  • Learned to drink from a straw
  • Starting to wave (although only at other babies and her daddy)
  • Starting to give kisses (always to her glow worm, occasionally to her parents....go figure)
  • Crawling all over the place
  • Pulling herself up to a standing position using anything and everything including the walls
  • Cruising all around the furniture
  • Back to fussing in the car seat (GRRRR!! Drives me crazy)
  • Blowing tons of raspberries (including when she has a mouth full of food)
  • Nearly impossible to bathe as she is all over the tub, rolling, crawling, and trying to stand up, which means nightly head bonks.
  • Very tough...she rarely cries when she falls down or hits her head.
  • Still experiencing stranger anxiety
  • Our little sunshine and the joy in our hearts
Seriously cute chubby baby legs

One of our favorite new outfits!!


This is one of the only pictures I have where you can see Jenna's cute little tooth.

  1. Seriously? Already? Geesh, time is flying by!

    She's adorable with that tiny tooth! Wow! With her pulling up and cruising the furniture walking will soon follow! Watch out!

    Aubrey is really nervous around people she doesn't know too. Everyone talks to her and she just stares at them. She refuses to wave to anyone she doesn't know.

  2. Yikes! Where is the time going? I can't wait to see you all next weekend...maybe she'll do some of her baby tricks for us..

    ps....the 'bow lady' in me is so, so, so pleased to see a bow in every picture :)
