Is it August already??

It is August, already. Which means, summer is flying by and my baby girl is 8 months old! It has been a few weeks since the last post, so hunker down for a long one!

Ella is so much fun right now, super talkative and smiley, and she giggles on her own now (usually at nothing, but she seems to think nothing is funny). She is finally getting better with rolling back onto her back when in her crib, so bedtime is much less frustrating for us! She is getting very good an motoring backwards and in a circle when on her belly, and I have seen her try to get those knees under her. Crawling can't be too far away, so we need to do some major adjustments to the house!! I am gonna have to clean the floors daily, good times for me!

She has cut back to 2 naps a day, but is still sleeping 10-12 hours a night (hurray). She is doing really well with solid foods, and she loves veggies. We have recently introduced the "meat dishes" from Gerber, and she seems to love those as well. The only thing we can't get her to eat is peaches. I don't blame her, they smell awful!

Ella has found some new favorite sleep positions now, so it is always fun to guess what we are gonna see when we go in to check on her....

There is the curled up side sleep,




The sprawled out side sleep,




And the belly sleep, which is becoming more frequent and a fast favorite.




But usually, when we go in, we find her like this....smiling away happy as can be.





We have done some more swimming at Grandma and Grandpa's house, she is a little fish, she loves the water! I am in love with her pink little hat, how cute is that thing??





She was not a huge fan of the intertube though, so we haven't had much practice floating yet. She looks pretty good in it though!



And of course here are some other random pictures of Ella. She is getting so good at sitting, no need for me to hover anymore, she is determined to stay upright!






We are headed to see family this weekend, so should be some new fun family pics for the next post!!
