8 Months Old

Last week Payton was 8 months.  I decided I'd write a little something to let you know what she's been up to, her likes/dislikes, etc.  So... here goes:
  • Loves to pull hair, earrings, drawstrings on sweatshirts, basically anything she can get her hands on :)
  • Getting better about eating pureed food.  Pretty much hated it at first, and it seemed to take FOREVER to get her used to it, but is doing so much better now.  Some of her favorites include bananas, applesauce, and sweet potatoes.
  • Rolling over all over the place.  Not crawling yet, but tries really hard.  We put her down on a blanket on the floor and then put a toy in front of her.  We cheer her on to go get the toy.  Well, the little stinker cheats and just pulls the blanket toward her in order to get the toy :)
  • Just moved up to Size 3 diapers on Sunday!
  • Loves all her friends at daycare. 
  • Jabbers ALL.THE.TIME!  Especially during the silent prayer at church :)
  • Has been saying more consonant sounds, and I think she has said "Da-da" a couple times.  Of course, she has no idea what she's saying :)
  • Really enjoys bath time.  Loves to have her hair washed (just like her mommy)
  • Is the best snuggler EVER!  I just love it when she puts her head on my shoulder after a bottle and "coos" herself to sleep.  This is one of the best feelings in the world!
  • Seems to get sick quite a bit.  I know everyone says that the first year is the worst, but man, it seems as if we live at the doctor's office. 
  • Has been working on her two bottom teeth for about a month now.  They come up and then go back down.  I wish they would just come up and stay up!
  • Has a smile that melts our hearts!
