8 Months Old!

I know, I know, I say it every month, but I can't believe how fast time is going!!! Leah is 8 months old today, so I put her in this adorable dress (thanks Aunt Randee!) and took a few pictures. She is SUCH a happy baby.
It's so easy to get her to smile at you.


She plays so well. I feel like I don't even have to take care of her half the time!

She is such a gift!!

Some of her favorite things right now...her pacifier (don't leave home without it!!), a Donald Duck toy that she loves to chew on, her brother, her toes, her bouncy/jumpy thing, anything that lights up or makes sounds, and her mommy and daddy :)

She has one tooth, though I'm fairly certain another one is on it's way. She LOVES eating, and will eat two full packages of baby food at dinner. She's still nursing 4 times a day, takes 2 naps and sleeps 12 hours at night.

I'm fairly certain she's already said her first word. The other day when we were ate Ryan & Jennifer's house, every time I would leave the room she would say 'Mama! Mama!' I'm not even kidding! Ask Jennifer if you need proof :) She still says it most times when I leave the room. It's pretty cute...until she starts crying if I don't come right back. She's pretty attached to her mommy :)

She is SUCH a joy. We get comments all of the time about how happy & content she is. She is willing to just 'go with the flow' with almost anything. We'll see if she's still like that when shes 16 ;)

It is very true, she says Mama. And it is very cute. Even when she's distressed! Also very true that Rochel hardly has to watch her.
