8 months old tomorrow!

Wow! Where did the time go?! LO will be 8 months old tomorrow, and she is full of surprises and changes. She has been 'talking' since sat. I could make out mmmmmmmummmmmm here and there ;) But yesterday, when we were out with grammy and grampy, she said Mum very clearly!! She said it quite a few times yesterday and today!!! She looked right at me and said mum today! She also looked at the cat, rubber ducky, and even the diaper genie and said mum, but whatever, I'll take it LOL

She is starting to stand up on her own. She does it maybe once a day or so. The first time she did it was on labor day. Hubby and I were both watching her. She pulled herself to a standing position at her exasaucer. It was so cool that we were both there to see it at the same time. That doesn't happen often!

She got her first ball and sippy cup on sept. 12. That was pretty cool. She loves the ball. She will chase it all over the house. And the sippy cup, well she loved chewing on it, but I have no idea if she actually got any apple juice from it!

She had her first taste of mum mum rice rusks last week when a friend and her LO came over. I bought them and gave her a whole one today for the first time. She loved it. I increased the amount of food I give her today too. I only started feeding her cereal in the morning a few weeks ago, and I've doubled it already, and today I doubled her food with lunch and supper, and she ate it all! She doesn't always eat all of her bottle, but she always eats her food!

And with all of the new things and milestones comes tempertantrums!!! WOW. It is almost impossible to change her diaper or get her dressed. She squirms, throws her self around and cries. She's got a temper. Great. Two of us in the house. Poor hubby :P She will even tap her head on the floor if she is mad. Its crazy!!!

Last night, hubby got a flat tire, so I had to wake LO up and take her out to where hubby was. WELL, she didn't sleep well after that at all. She was up from about 12 till 2ish. I was VERY tired, and she was crying and screaming. It was a wonderful combination. >:( But she finally went to sleep and thank goodness, she slept until 9. ♥ my little girl!!!

Still no teeth, and no sign of them either! I'm ok with that.... she still doesn't have much hair either haha.

She still loves the cat, she likes to twist the bottle when she drinks from it, her favorite book is hands hands fingers thumbs (she laughs everytime we read it to her!) she loves that ball, and pretty much anything new.
