8 months old
I know I say this every month, but I can't believe my baby is 8 months old! She is getting so big and changing so much every day. She is working on getting her two top front teeth in right now, she is pulling herself to standing on certain things and she is going from sitting onto her belly in preparation for crawling. I'm not sure if she'll walk or crawl first, but she looooves to stand up any chance she gets. She has also started becoming VERY interested in table food. She always has to see what you are eating and throws quite a fit if you don't share. She could really care less about baby food most of the time.
Her personality continues to emerge and she is so funny. Last week Mitch was playing the guitar for her and she was clapping along to the music. She loves music of any kind whether it be at church (where she has also been known to clap along) or when Josh is playing music on his ipod. She also loves her toys. She gets so excited when she sees them and leans towards them if you are carrying her. She will sit and play for over an hour sometimes. We got her play food for Valentine's day and she will sit and empty every item out of the basket, bang it together and of course chew on it.
I can't wait for the weather to warm out so we can play outside too. We have a great playground around the corner that I'm sure she'll love this summer. We also want to get her a swing to hang from the tree out back, and a bike seat so that we can all go on bike rides.
I will take her 8 month pics tomorrow and hopefully get them up ASAP! Until then, here is one more of her and Remington from yesterday.

Jump, Jump, Jump!
We bought Ella her very own Johnny Jump Up, since she has been itching to be mobile these days. She loves it!

Our little Valentine
We had a nice, relaxing Valentine's Day at home. Grandma Lisa came by to give Ella her gift and she had a great time with the gift bag and tissue paper! Then Grandma gave her a bath so I could finish my cake that I was making to bring to Joel & Steph's for Valentine's Dinner. Since I was not the one giving the bath, I had an opportunity for once to get some pics of Ella in the tub too. I can't believe what a big girl she is becoming!

Just another Tuesday with Mommy
Ella and I had a nice day off today. We had lots of fun playing with her new play food (for her kitchen), had a mini photo shoot, and then went for a walk since it was a balmy 50 degrees here! Later, the 3 of us had dinner at DeFlippo's. It was delicious, as always, and Ella continued to demonstrate her favorite new trick-- staring at strangers until they talk to her. Luckily most people like babies!
