8 Months!

Whoa Whoa Wee Whoa(as your daddy says), you are not really 8 months are you!

This has by far been the most fun month yet! You are crawling and into everything. Your favorite thing to get into is the entertainment center. You love pushing all the buttons and making your daddy and me crazy trying to get the TV or XBOX back to the screen it was on. In this picture you are a little distracted by veggie tales.

You got your first cold this month which led to a double ear infection. It was sooo sad seeing you cry and pull at your ears. You still scream bloody murder when I suction out your nose but I don't blame you, I tried it the other day....very weird feeling!!!

You can stand really well and will even stand alone momentarily.
Notice the faint bruise on your right cheek....One of the first times you attempted to stand alone, you fell forward onto your jumper. The doc says that I have to let you explore and find your limits and said there will be many more to come. I now cushion your surroundings with blankets.
You are talking up a storm...you have the cutest little squeal when you see something new and especially when veggie tales comes on! You can wave bye-bye and say huh? It is the cutest thing. It usually goes something like this;

Me: Laney, no ma'am.
Laney: huh?(as you keep doing what you are doing)

Me: Laney, that is a no-no.

Laney: huh?

I don't really think you know exactly what you are saying, but it is pretty cute!

You love the high chair and shopping cart! I would have put you in it sooner, but I did not have one of those sanitary covers...Thank you, Mama K for the oh-so-cute cover!!! Very comfortable too!!!
The elastic does go around the whole high chair but this is what it looks like after you have pulled and played with it for a while! Still, way more sanitary than those nasty chairs that they never wipe down.

This month you went to see your daddy fly for the first time! You loved the sounds and watching everyone take off and land!

Look at your baby Ugg's! Aren't they the cutest?

You can now drink out of a sippy cup. You get water with a little bit of apple juice in your sippy. We tried giving you water at first but you are just like your momma and do not like water at all! I don't blame you!

Your favorite foods consist of banana's, apples, blueberries, peaches, pears, prunes, sweet potatoes, sweet peas, and green beans.

Your least favorite foods are carrots, strawberries, and chicken(I have to mix it with a veggie).

I am so proud of the person you have become and have enjoyed every one of your stages! I love you with all my heart baby girl!!

Coming up: Laney's first Christmas and snow(we will be in Red River,NM for Christmas)

This is going to be a very busy next few weeks. I will probably not be able to post again till after the new year so that being said have a
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
