Millie is certainly growing by leaps and bounds! Let me let her tell you...
Hey everybody! Guess what! I am 8 months old! I have learned many new things this month. So her are 8 things about my 8 months.
1. I have learned how to sit up from a crawling position. I have also learned to pull myself up in my crib. I don't really know what to do after that. Sometimes I just stand there until Mommy and Daddy come to get me. I like standing up!
2. I can play at my light table all by myself. No assistance needed! I love it and could spend alot of time there.
3. I am crawling all around the house! There are so many interesting things all over the floor. Mommy and Daddy better get to babyproofing the house!
4. I have another tooth! One of my front two teeth is coming in. My mommy gets grossed out when I tried to show her. I didn't know it but my new tooth is the reason for my super runny nose and occasional fussy evenings. I think my other tooth is coming in as well. I'll keep you posted.
5. I have a new smile! I scrunch up my face and give a big grin!
6. I have a new ride! I am big enough for the umbrella stroller! I plan on getting alot of use out of it in the coming weeks. Especially the Florida Gator one that I have. It makes Daddy smile every time!
7. I love to talk. Wonder where I get that from? I was making alot of Ddddddd sounds for daddy. But now I have switched and I am doing alot of Mmmmmm sounds for Mommy. I squeal and scream just to hear my own voice.
8. I am starting to eat meats and they are super yummy! I don't care for fruits much and veggies are still my favorite.

I go into Millie's room now and she typically looks like this! She's a big girl! She is pulling herself up on everything and crawling (on all fours) all over the place!
Vince got a new swingset and we were more than happy to give it a try! Millie and Vince had a great time swinging together. The fort, the wheel, the slide, it was all great fun!
Millie is certainly growing by leaps and bounds! Let me let her tell you...
On Saturday we had a great GTG with all of my Mommie group friends. These are all the ladies that I have met through the original breastfeeding support group. This time we invited Daddies to come along as well. We had a little area set up for the babies and it all worked out really well. I heard nothing but good things from the great service and food, to the beautiful setting. It was a great afternoon. 
She looked cute as a button and I think they had alot of fun today. My mom made Millie these St Patty's babylegs. We have been saving them for the day and today was the day! She and her buddy Ellie Fitzpatrick were wearing the same outfit. They looked so cute! Ellie's outfit spoke the truth though. Millie was just posing as a little Irish girl as we have zero Irish in us. 
Mat had off the entire day on Saturday! It was so great to spend some time together as a family. While Mat got some work done, Millie and I took Siler to the vet. Millie was so pleasant despite the 45 min wait to get into the room. And another 15-20 for the exam. Quite a trooper. Siler got a clean bill of health and looks excellent. He talked about how great her teeth were. Anyway, woohoo Siler!
As a first stop on Annie and Morton's vacation, they visited us in Atlanta. Annie is a dear friend of the Tainows, and now mine. It was the first time we met Annie's boyfriend Morton and he was a pleasure. He and Annie had a great time playing with Millie at Engine 11. We wish them happy travels to Florida!
Here is an example of me taking Millie's 7 month pictures. It's quite tricky because the best light is right at the back patio doors. Not much space to work with sometimes!
