Eight Months Young!

Eight months people, Cora is eight months old!! As we were driving to church this evening, I said to Joel that it's crazy that we have an eight month old. She's almost as old as the number of months I actually carried her in  my belly! Everyday is just more and more fun as she is learning to scoot, talk/babble, fascination with books, feeding herself, napping longer and even pulling herself on anything and anyone. This month Cora decided to surprise us all with her cute little army crawl/butt scoot. I wouldn't be shocked if she was crawling in the next week or so. She's so quick as she lifts and kicks and pulls her little arms towards something that she wants. She's also showing a side of stubbornness/frustration. When she wants something, she wants it now! She doesn't take after her mother at all...(ughm, excuse me while I clear my throat), it's probably why she says Mama now...we are too much a like!



 I am excited to start giving her "people" food as she seems to be losing interest in baby food. She has a new trick that she tries to touch each and every spoonful of food you offer her. We had some extremely messy meals, but that's what being a baby is all about! Messes!!

While we had some nice sunny days, we tried to get out for a bit and enjoy the last inches of snow...hopefully the last of the snow! we are all ready for some warmer weather!

Learning what snow is all about, thanks to Daddy!

Who needs flowers on Valentines Day, Cora just loves cards.

Purdy little lady, you will never know how much Mama and Dada love you! You melt our heart!!

Taking baths are so much fun, now that you are out of the baby bathtub!

Being a little naughty and learning the word NO. If we say no, you look at us and smile, oh so cute but can last for only so long :)

One of the many silly faces, you love to make us laugh!

When you are playing, you usually choose to read a book over all of the piles of toys on the floor. Your future teachers will love to hear this, right Auntie Ash!

We love you miss!
