Maddy: 8 Months!







Boy oh boy have I been a busy girl lately. So much has changed in just eight months. Mommy no longer has to trick me into swallowing that orange and yellow squishy stuff--I actually think it tastes pretty good! And I made friends with that walking furry orange animal they call Lucy dog. I think it's fun to pull her tail and pet her head. She likes to stand near me, especially when I eat. She must like the way I swallow my food! I also started seeing my legs again and love to rub and rub them in the grass. It tickles a little but it's worth it! I also started calling those two who run around me all day by name: mum-mum and da-da-da-da. Here are some other fun facts about me:

New Developments: Learning to clap and hold her own bottle
New Big Girl Steps: No longer needs a wedge to sleep in her big girl bed at night, takes fewer but bigger bottles (about 4, 6-8 oz. bottles a day) with three helpings of big girl food a day
New Foods: Squash & sweet potatoes
Favorite Toy: Cookie Monster, Inchy, Minnie Mouse, Jumper-oo and Exersaucer
Favorite Activities: Loves to dance, sing and explore everything with her hands and mouth
