Mattie is 8 months!

Dear sweet baby girl I can't believe you are already 8 months old. It seems like yesterday we welcomed you into our crazy hectic life! You fit right in to our on the go lifestyle. You amaze me more and more very day. You are crawling and have been since you were about 6 months old, and you are pulling up on everything. You are one determined little girl and will be walking before we know it.  You eat like a champ and love to feed yourself. You have no teeth yet, but you would never know because you will gum and eat anything we give you. You are not wanting to eat as much "baby food" anymore, you would rather have real people food! You are a pro at drinking out of a sippy cup but only one with a straw. Your love for Mickey Mouse is dwindling down and he is not as funny to you as he used to be. Bath time with you can sometimes be a nightmare because you do not want to sit still, and you do not like to be washed off. You just started doing "Patty Cake" on your own, and will be in the middle of crawling and stop and start doing "Patty Cake", you can say "YAY" while raising your hands, "Momma, Dadda, and Bye-Bye" are your favorite words to chatter. Occasionally you will wave bye-bye but its usually after we are gone. You got a new Curious George Monkey and you are in love with him. He is your new favorite toy! You like to give him hugs and cuddle with him. He is nice enough to let you chew on his hands, and tug his ears! You are a Daddy's girl big time and light up anytime he is near you! You never have taken a Paci and it still does not faze you, you only want to chew on it if you have one. Sophie the Giraffe is one of your other favorite toys! She goes everywhere we go! Happy 8 Months sweet baby girl! To many more! Momma and Dadda love you so much!

XOXO,
Lyndsay
