Almost 8 months







Zoë is a happy, healthy and very talkative almost 8 month old. She will be 8 months old in 2 days. Her three words that are very clear to date are bye-bye, ma ma, and GiGi. She calls to us on a regular basis. She is trying to crawl, but she is much more interested in trying to pull and stand and loves walking with you holding her hands. I'm not sure if she will be much of a crawler, she would much rather walk. We have finally graduated to her sleeping in her baby bed in her room, upstairs! Mind you this was not her not being able to sleep upstairs in her bed, but my unwillingness to let her or try at all. So finally, Genia and I discussed how hard it would be to keep waiting to try, on her, not me. So 2 weeks ago we tried and do you know that she did not cry one time or fuss at all! Too bad I can't say the same about myself! I cried. It was so hard not to be able to look at her beside me sleeping and being able to check on her, cover her up, etc. I know I shouldn't complain b/c she is such a wonderful sleeper and I do have video monitor so I can see her in the day or night.
Have I mentioned what a happy baby she is? Smiles, laughs and talks constantly! She is such a people person. She has only really met one stranger that she didn't like, sorry Mitchell! I love the fact that she smiles, laughs and sometimes squeals when I pick her up from Aunt Debbie's in the afternoons! It just makes my heart happy.
