My darling daughter, I cannot believe you will be eight months old today.  You have been on this earth for seventy-five percent of a year!!  As I type, you are sitting (unassisted) next to me in bed playing with a book and the television remote.  Oh the irony.

You have changed so dramatically since you were born.  From a sleepy, quiet newborn to an inquisitive, bubbly baby.

Again, I don’t want to forget how you are changing so I’m documenting it.  Possibly boring to others, but I want to remember.

My loves:

* You giggle when I giggle.

* You say “Ba ba ba” “Da da da” and “Di di di” (you especially like di di di when you are upset)

* You can wave and clap.  You have been waving since you were seven months old!

* You LOVE the kitties and the doggies.

* You can pincer grip your cheerios.

* You grunt happily when you are eating something you like.

* Bath-time is one of your favorite times of the day.

* You grin at people, and then bury your face into my shoulder.

* You’re trying to crawl, and get quite upset when you don’t move…and a rolling you go!

* You love buttons (laptop keyboard, remotes, calculators).

I love you my sweet girl.

Umm…you have to expand the video to see it (pres the button with the four blue arrows). ?!?!?!?!  As my “tech support” is snoring, I suppose it will stay this way until tomorrow.  Sorry.

Oh, and the quality isn’t the best, but the video camera wasn’t nearby.
