8 Months minus 1 day..

well, actually only minus a few hours since she was born at 1:43am!! Tomorrow Lilly is 8 months old, and I just can't believe it...she is just so fun!! From the above photos, you can see one of her favorite activities....playing with her toy basket and putting it on her head. She will do it for minutes at a time and just laugh. Other things are her to do list during the day are to play peak-a-boo...she actually pulls sometime of fabric over her head and drops it and waits for you to say...."peak-a-boo...I see you." Then she giggles like crazy!! Also, we go in a visit "daddy" she squeals with delight and makes a sound that we pretend is her "hi." We do some raspberries, and then she thinks it's really funny to keep doing raspberries while eating her solids....what a mess (but very cute)!! Then we make time for practicing standing and walking (taking steps). She takes some naps, and still nurses, but all in all she is right on track for an 8 month old (even being a preemie)!! We have a very busy December planned out....starting with my little bro's b-day on Friday and then Christmas with my family on Saturday...it's going to be a big day; workout in the morning, holiday parade at 11am, then lunch and naps, festival of trees at 1:30, then drive on the beach, then buy a tree, decorate said tree, and open presents!!! WooHoo!! On a final note the top two photos are of my new found craft...making sock monkeys, and our poor peach tree this morning in the frost!! Here's to being a busy December!!
