Oh gosh, where has the time gone? Its so crazy to think that 8 months has already passed since Rylee joined our family! I can honestly say that it has been the hardest, most rewarding 8 months of my life. I fall more in love with this little girl everyday!
Here is whats new at 8 months:
*We have a crawler. Its a love hate relationship. I love that she follows me around the house, and can crawl to what she wants now. I hate that she is mobile, and wont just sit so I can get things done! She is getting faster everyday,and looks SO cute doing it. Sometimes she gets lazy, and does an army crawl. She gets so excited when she sees Molly, cause now she can get her!
* Her wave has turned from a whole arm shake, to her hand opening and closing. It makes me smile everytime she does it.
* Both bottom teeth are in, and the top left one is breaking through!
* She wants to hold her own bottle. This is good and bad. I love that I can give her a bottle while we are in the car. I hate that I cant cuddle with her and feed her. She loves to lay on the front room floor, drink her bottle, and watch Yo Gabba Gabba.
* She doesnt want to have any blankets, socks, or pants on her. She is fine with a shirt, but will kick and scream until the others are off.
* She is definately learning what she wants, and cries when she cant have it. I just have to laugh at her while she is rolling around crying. As soon as I give her the thing she wants she quits crying The doctor told me you cant spoil them too much before they are one, so I am sticking by that theory and spoiling her!!!!
* She loves to sit in her high chair. She still doesnt get the whole concept of pick the food up and put it in your mouth. She picks it up and drops it on the floor. There is always quite the mess to pick up after she eats! Which is fine cause she will sit in her high chair for a good 45 minutes and just play with the spoons and whatever food is on the tray. That gives me time to do the dishes, and straightan up some.
* She knows when its time to get into the tub. If you bring her in the bathroom in her diaper whe goes nuts! Its hillarious!
*She can balance herself on things and stand for a minute or two.
* Like I mentioned above, she loves Yo Gabba Gabba. Its a weird kid show. Kind of like Teletubbies. Rylee claps and squeals when it comes on. I think its creepy, but she enjoys it!
* She always stares at her shelf when she wakes up, and laughs. There is a picture of her, a teddy bear from Aunt Shani, and some other things on it. She loves looking at all of them.
* She absolutely is in love with the plastic fish toy I got her at the dollar store. She carries it around all day. When I take it she cries.
* She is starting to eat more foods. We found out tonight that she loves the rice from Mi Rancherito. She ate pretty much all of mine,a nd then had my leftovers tonight.
It just doesnt seem like she is old enough to be doing all of this! She is at such a fun age right now. I love being with her everyday!
Chase bought her a polo shirt tonight.
It was so cute on her!
Not the best picture of Chase, but Ry's little hands and big eyes are dang cute!
My baby is 8 months!
Ever sine Ican remember, I've been popping my collar....
SIDENOTE: Chase is not wearing lipstick. Even though the picture looks otherwise! When his lips get really chapped they go super red and get big!
The creepy fish toy
Aunt Shani gave her this bear. She pretty much loves it!
This cracks me up! She will get up on all fours right before she starts to crawl. Look at her little toys pointed, and her chubby feet!
Standing up... with a little help from her toys.
This is how she likes to eat her bottle now. Layed out just relaxing on the floor... no pillow, no blanket, just the floor!
Yo Gabba Gabba.
Enough said.
Grandma and Grandpa Oz gave her a book that reads stories to you. Its become one of her favorite things. Notice the blankets in the back ground... she went through a phase where she would only sleep if I was next to her on the floor. Not the bed. Not on an air mattress. The hard floor.
The cutest feet and toes ever.
A couple of her favorite things.
She likes to put herself to sleep, but we have to be in the room. Why wont she do this in her bed?
She looks so much like Chasey here!
Loves apples!
Finally learned that the jump up is for jumping, and not for sitting in it! She goes CRAZY in it. I put her in it right before nap time. It totally wears her out!
I couldnt pick just one! They are all classic!
WE LOVE YOU RY BUG!!!
