Eliza Claire -8 months

Eliza keeps getting bigger (despite my efforts to keep her tiny). She is still such a pleasant little girl. Every morning-and every time she wakes up from a nap Sadie and Connor greet her as if they haven't seen her in ages! It really melts my heart to see how much they love her. A few things she is up to now...
-Two teeth-a third top tooth coming in
-Trying so hard to crawl-she can scoot or roll pretty much anywhere she wants to go. I think she will be crawling for real VERY soon.
-Sitting up
-Loves to EAT
-She can wave and clap
-She can mimic sounds that the kids make (ie clicking tongue, smacking lips, squealing)
-Sleeping well for naps and at night (HOORAY!)
-Still completely in LOVE with Cooper.
-She reaches for me and says mama-not sure if she knows what she is saying, but I love it!
-She is starting to have some strong opinions and doesn't hesitate to let us hear about it.

First time playing down on the grass.



I wish I could say I got as many smiles from her as the dog does, but this picture says it all. Guess who she is looking down at?

She is such a doll...that smille kills me!!

I can't believe how old these little ones are getting. I swear it feels like we were JUST pregnant.
