Happy 8 months Birthday Alex!

• My baby girl is 8 months old today. So in honor of that, I thought I would do a little catch -up on where she is in her development.
• She is sitting by herself, and can go from crawling to sitting with ease.
• She is army crawling all over, but not crawling on all fours yet. (actually she tried it a little yesterday, but Mommy has not seen it)
• She still has no teeth, but Riley did not get his until he was 10 months old either.
• She has the cutest little chunky legs.
• She is wearing 6-9 months in clothing size.
• Her hair is becoming a lighter brown in color. In the sun, it looks as if there may even be highlights of red. (But it is definitely not red all over).
• She seems close to pulling up on things, but that would require her to get her fingers out of her mouth to hold onto things!
• She is one of the most easygoing and happy babies. She can be a bit of a drama queen, but aren't all girls???
• Most of the time she sleeps through the night. The funny thing is she ALWAYS sleeps through the night when she stays with Nana & Gampa.
• My favorite thing about her is the way her blue eyes light up when you come into the room. It makes you feel like the most special person in the world. Somehow I do fear that those blue eyes will get her anything she wants from daddy or any other boy in the future.
