Baby Proofing

LaLa, LaLa bean, bean, sweet girl, Law, Law-son (said in a very annoyed 3 year tone), whatever we call her she has just been an amazing addition to our family.

She is now 8 months old and will be 9 months on the 21st. Time goes much faster the second time around! She continues to delight and amaze us each day and she just might be the best baby I have ever been around. Seriously.

I really believe that I have not heard her cry more than about 30 seconds and that is only if she is hurt or super tired.

She is on the go! Man, this is a girl that knows what she wants and goes after it! She began "zombie" crawling between 6 and 7 months. She would drag one of her arms and her body along the floor to get where she needed to be. She has just recently in the past few days began to crawl on all fours. She is into everything. Seriously, the other day I left for maybe 1/2 a second and she had found her way into my laundry basket pulling out all the clean (and folded) laundry. She is pulling up on everything and trying to stand on her own. Wow! I had know idea that having a crawler would be so much work. She is sort of like a little vacuum and finds even the tiniest little things for us. She is just becoming her own little person and we love it!

She got her two bottom teeth right after she turned 6 months old and her top 2 teeth have just popped through this week! I love the teeth, but miss that gummy grin! She is all sorts of baby food too! She is a huge fan of the fruits and orange veggies, but not so much the green ones. But I mean, who really is a fan of green veggies??

She also makes all kinds of new sounds like dada and mama! So fun to hear those words even though she has know idea what they mean.

To say she loves Oak would be the biggest understatement of the century. She adores him and could spend all day laughing at him. He just gives her a little attention, but she loves it. Sometimes he gets her all riled up right before her nap and she refuses to sleep, but I love when he plays with her.

She sleeps 12 hours at night and takes 2 naps each day. Her naps are not too consistent one day they can be 2 hours and the next 20 minutes. Just can't figure her out on her naps.

She LOVES being outside. She cries anytime I walk close to the door or window and we don't go out. Once we are out we see the biggest grin and she claps her hands together! So sweet!

She is also a daddy's girl! Brian usually comes home when we are just sitting down for dinner and the other night he was running late. She was turned around the entire time looking at the door, in what I can only imagine as anticipation for daddy to come home. So sweet!

We Love our La La and are so thankful for all the sweet joy she gives us each day!
