My sweetheart will be 8 months old tomorrow. I cannot believe it has been 8 months since she was born. This year is just flying by and my little angel is getting so big. She is actively crawling now and can get just about anywhere. She eats three solid meals a day and drinks right around 21-27 ounces of formula. I'm a little unsure about when to start finger foods and what type to offer her. She only has two bottom teeth so I'm not sure how I could give her a cracker or cheerio yet. Won't she choke?
My Lily is a great sleeper. She goes to bed right around 7:30pm and sleeps until 6:30 or 7ish. This schedule makes for a very happy momma. Of course I get up a few times during the night to check on her and flip her back over onto her back. Is it okay to leave her on her belly if she flips during the night? I'm not sure what to do there so I just get up when I hear her turn and flip her back over.
She hugs me now really tight around my neck when I get home from work. She loves her toys and gets super excited when she sees a new toy. Christmas is going to be so much fun this year watching her get excited about her presents and toys. My mom brought her over a little toy today and I wasn't home but both my mom and sister said that she just laughed and laughed and was so happy and excited by her new toy. It was this pink purse that played music. I was at work but it makes me so happy that Lily has my sister as her nanny and my mom can come over during the afternoon and spend time with her. If you have to work I don't think there is a better scenario.
Oh and we put an offer in on a new house. We put the offer in on Tuesday and still haven't heard yet. It was a pretty low ball offer in a great neighborhood so we're crossing our fingers. We're taking Lily on her first airplane ride this weekend. We're visiting some friends in Canada for the long weekend. I'm a little nervous navigating the airport with her but I'm sure between the two of us we'll figure it out.
Wish us luck on the house!

Good luck on your flight. Just remember to let her have something to suck on during take off and landing and a little while afterwards. YOu can also cup your hands over her ears making a little suction cup to help her ears pop if she seems in pain. Oh, and something I didn't know...you have to take them out of their stroller to go through the metal detector. Poor little Danny was asleep and I had to wake him up. I was ticked!
Have a great trip!
Wow! I can't believe Lily is 8 months already! Where has the time gone????
Have a great trip and good luck on the offer on the house!
Hey Kate,
SOrry I am just now responding your your comment asking if I liked the Tushies. Well...they were okay but I think I am going to go with chlorine free diapers. Oh, FYI if you have tried to email me from my blog...I can't acess my yahoo email account. Yep, I can't remember my signon and password. How horrible is that! :)
Hope your trip went smooth.
