getting into my papers and loving it.
drinking her juice, sometimes she makes us hold it for her even though she can do it.
We forced Rosalie to stay on all fours for the picture, now she rolls over every time I try to get her like that. She is very stubborn and does not want to crawl.
Rosalie is eight months today. I haven't done the monthly mom photo shoot yet, but I will tomorrow. She has learned so many things this month, especially in the last week. It is so fun to watch her learn and grow.
She pulls her self up to sitting position in her crib and then tries to stand herself up, but I moved the bar so that she can't reach it. This makes bed and nap time hard at first because she sits her self up and starts to play, or gets stuck at the foot of the bed wedged into the corner.
She pulls herself up to standing position, and wants to stand all of the time, it makes my back really sore when she wants me to hold her hands to stand.
She takes steps when I hold her hands and walks around, very slowly.
She still doesn't crawl, she can get on all fours, but if I put her on all fours and try to get her to crawls she smashes her face in the floor and proceeds to cry very dramatically.
She somehow is able to scoot forward a little when she is sitting on her bum, because that is how she got to my basket of papers that she is so happily standing at in the above photo.
She now says gaga, and baba along with mama, still no dada.
She makes all sorts of funny noises with her mouth.
She makes the funniest facial expressions.
She snorts her nose, like the noise the bunny rabbit says.
She was doing the noise the elephant makes by blowing with her mouth for a while, she moved on to new noises though.
She gives me "five."
She waves hello, but she has her hand facing herself, it is so cute. We can't quite catch it on the video camera yet because she doesn't always do it.
She gave her book kisses and snuggled it last night, it was so cute.
She says awwww when she snuggles.
She is learning to be soft, but gets bored and proceeds to smack our faces or pinch our lips.
She loves her little snacks, she is very good at picking things up with her thumb and finger.
She loves all of her food except for green beans.
She loves her juice and her sippy cup. She really loves our water bottles the best though.
She is squirmy and all over the place and knows exactly what she wants, we just sometimes don't understand and she gets frustrated.
We love her to bits!!!!
