Eight months old you are today! You continue to be Mommy and Daddy's little ray of sunshine! You are about 13 lbs now and are finally starting to fit into 3-6 month clothes, yay! You still eat like a champ and never turn anything down. Let's talk about your milestones so far. You currently:
sit up
babble, all the time
clap your hands
nod your head, and
scoot backwards
We love watching you grow, even if it's very very slowly! Mommy is always reading on Facebook about other moms and their kids "growing up too fast", but I always tell your dad that I have the best of both worlds. I have you who is "growing" and hitting milestones all the time, but you are still so little that I feel I am getting all the time in the world to watch you be, well little. You are such a firecracker. We can already see a feisty side in you, which you get from your mother.
In this past month you celebrated your very first Christmas! In my opinion it was my favorite Christmas yet! When we brought home our tree you were in awe of it for days! You loved looking at the lights and the ornaments. Then, the presents came and boy did they come! About 95% of the presents under the tree were yours, but do you know what your favorite present was? WRAPPING PAPER! At one point we put one of you new toys right in front of you and instead of showing any interest in it at all, you decided to twist all the way around to grab some wrapping paper to crumble and chew on! This Christmas was a little quieter than our previous ones, but it was so wonderful to celebrate with our new little family. Your dad and I would not have wanted it any other way.
As always, Miss K, we love you dearly. We love spending time with you and watching you laugh and play. We are so excited for your coming days and to see how you will grow.
Love, Mom
