8 months

This...



is what the past month has looked like. Add a little more chaos due to an adventuresome little 7+ month and you've got this too...









This month Lillie has blossomed into an active and independent little girl. She started out dragging herself all over the floor but soon realized that picking her little round belly up off the floor would get her places much quicker. Nothing within an arms reach of this kid is safe anymore. Crawling was the biggest news of the month. Lillie also:

-sleeps from 8 pm to about 5:30 am each night and then she goes back to sleep until 7 or 8 am. She just can't seem to forget about that early morning waking!
-never sleeps on her back! She always rolls over on her belly.
-eats three small meals a day (I have lots to update on the solid food front) in addition to nursing about 5 times a day.
-loves to be nosey and always directs her attention to wherever she hears noise.
-has started pulling herself up on things like the couch. She still tends to lose her grip and crash easily though.
-still enjoys making friends everywhere she goes, but has shown a little bit of shyness.
-jabbers a lot.
