8 months old

My baby girl just won't stop growing.  Although it's fun to see how much she is learning and changing everyday, I wish it would slow down so we can enjoy each new milestone before moving onto the next.  Oh well... you know what they say, you can wish in one hand and..., well, you know what they say!

This little lady just turned 8 months old! 

We were lucky enough to have found a photographer who is just starting her business and needed babies for her growing portfolio.  She came to our house and did these pictures for free.  Thank you Melissa Sue Photography!

So blessed to have my sweet family!

Love that Piper has such an amazing daddy!  Tren is already wrapped around her little finger!  I can't get enough of these two!

The latest with Piper..

                                                   * She is 22 lbs (97%) and 27 in (47%)

        * Piper started crawling on Thanksgiving Day just a few days shy of turning 8 months old

* She has 3 teeth (2 bottom and 1 top) - I think her 2nd top tooth will be in any day now

                    * Continues to hate cuddling.  She is definitely my child and has quite the bubble!  Ha ha

* Very social butterfly.  She loves playing with her friends Anna and Emma who are right around her age!  She laughs, squeals and grabs at other kids!

          * Loves boys/men.  She will laugh and giggle at almost any guy but women have to work pretty hard for a smile from Piper.

                                    * She is definitely a mama's girl!  And I am not going to lie, I love it!  :)

* Piper can pull herself up and works hard at doing this most of the day now.  But she isn't quite walking around furniture yet. 

* She smiles a ton!  She is a very happy girl!

                                                          * Wakes up for 1 feeding a night 

* Gives fantastic open mouth, slobbery kisses and I just can't get enough of them

                 * Loves all foods and does excellent with finger foods, sipping through straws and does decent drinking out of a big girl cup with help. 

* Piper struggles when Tren or I leave the room.  She has a melt down and already has begun to have quite the tantrums.

                              * She has become quite the travelor with the many, many, many road trips we have taken to Utah.  She continues to do better and better with each road trip! 

We sure adore this little girl!  We feel so blessed to have her be part of our family!
