8 Months Old

My baby is 8 months old tomorrow! I can't believe it. Where is the time going?

We have hit some milestones this month!

*Just yesterday, Adalynn had her first "non-family member babysitting experience." Nick and I joined the YMCA, and dropped her off in the playroom for about 50 minutes. She did a nice job. Even though she was being held when we went in to pick her up. The lady working said she was fine though. We like to go to the New Albany Y because you can look through the glass and see your child while you're working out. It's pretty neat. I'm trying to lose some of this baby weight I still have! :)

*Adalynn says mama and dada. She imitates us when we say it. I don't know that she 100% knows for sure what she's saying, but I like to think so. She was also trying to say doggy the other day.

*While she is still not crawling, she is getting pretty darn close. She rocks on all fours and scoots backwards. She has also started rolling multiple times to get to something she wants.

*Still no teeth! This is especially funny because I've been blaming every bout of fussiness on teething for months now. My mom did say that I didn't get teeth until I was 9 months old though.

*Bath time is one of her favorite times of the day. She loves sitting in her tub and playing with her toys. My mom got her these really cool little floaty toys that light up. She enjoys her bath so much that she usually cries when it's time for me to take her out. :(

*Sleeping has become a little bit of an issue that I'll post about later. In most cases, it seems like babies sleep better as they get older. My little one is kind of going in the opposite direction. She is up almost every 3 hours. She wants to nurse quickly and then fall right back asleep. Not fun for mom!

One thing is for sure though, we love our little princess and are amazed by her everyday!
