Mary Ellen is 8 Months Old!


Oh, big girl. You are such a joy!!

Things are really happening fast at this point. Mary Ellen has grown so much in the past month. She on the verge of crawling and has successfully scooted her way to a wanted object at least twice. She's into the eating thing (finally) and is hard to stop at dinner time. And she talks and talks and talks. What are we in for once she figures out how to put those sounds together?

Her interests include:
  • checking out things with her brand new top tooth (new as of this past Friday)
  • sweet potatoes, peas, egg yolk, and the best thing in the world: Cheerios!
  • standing up, with help, of course
  • hollering
  • being outside on the back porch
Her dislikes:
  • being in the car when it is dark (not fun for any of us)
  • peaches, rice cereal, and oatmeal
  • naps (again, no fun for anyone)
  • when Mom walks away
She's starting to look just a little like her Ma, no?

Look out world, I'm on the move!

She didn't want to stay still for her monkey pictures this month. Gone are the days when she'll stay where we put her. We'll miss them...

  1. Oh, things get much more interesting when they become mobile. It's both exciting and frustrating at the same time for mom. Now begins the stage of following her around everywhere. She's getting so big, Lisa! What a cutie. I LOVE how she's mugging for pics!
