Juliet:
8 Months Old
Wow...this baby...is...growing up toooo fast!!
Ya know 6 months is still little. And 7 months is basically still 6 months.
But 8 months might as well be 1 year. What's up with that? I swear to you that I was JUST pregnant!!
Juliet, to me, is the softest, squishiest, loudest, loviest, nursing-est (i know that's not a word) snuggliest baby in the world. All of us our mourning her growing up and enjoying it all at the same time. She has a crowd of cheerleaders every time she rolls over or attempts to clap. Georgie loves to help me feed her and Joey wants to hold her all doing dinner. Isaac and Georgie always begrudge nap time. They never want me to put her down. I wish there was a way to multiply her!
She rolls ALL over the place, scoots, is beginning to pick up food and put it in her mouth, give kisses when we say the words, "Juliet, kiss!" and sometimes claps her hands. Within the last couple of days she's been getting up on her hands and knees so, we think, crawling is just around the corner.
Juliet has been having some stranger anxiety ever since our trip to SE Asia so when my Mom came for a visit last week Juliet kind of broke her heart by crying whenever she came around. BUT! within a few days Juliet could not withstand the allure of Gaga!
She bounced on Gaga's lap for almost 45 minutes, jumping and jumping and jumping while we watched Tangled for the first time (love that movie!) 9 months, here we come...but don't come too fast!
