8 Months Old

It seems like Gabrielle's development has just exploded over the past week or so. Talking/babbling, crawling, and pulling herself up have all occurred in approximately the past 10 days. Crazy!

-Can take steps and "walk" while holding our fingers

-Can pull herself to standing

-Still wears most all of her 3-6 month size clothes but can also wear most of her 6-9 month size stuff too

-Wears size 3 diapers

-Has tried many fruits and veggies, along with Cheerios and sweet potato puffs. She currently eats oatmeal mixed with fruit in the morning, 3.5 ounces of veggies in the afternoon, a few Cheerios and/or puffs throughout the day, and bottles in between.

-Says "baba" A LOT (and variants - aba, boba, mmmba, etc) and also has said "mama" (though we only really hear the mama when she is whining/crying). She is starting to try and say some other gibberish lately too.

-She has become quite the crawler/scooter when she sees something she wants

-Still no teeth! I bought a mesh feeder about a week ago and have given Gabi ice cubes in that. I guess you can put fruit in it as well but 1) Gabi doesn't really like fruit, and 2) I really don't want to deal with the mess of her slobbering on fruit through mesh holder thingy!

And....it's getting ridiculously hard to take pictures of our little one anymore because she's either doing this...
or this......
or this...... ALL THE TIME.

Hahaha......well here are a few that I got for her 8 month monthday :)

And my personal fav.....this is SO her....

Here are couple of short clips of her talking and crawling!

The animals really have to be on their game now that Gabi can attack them anytime she pleases.....

Happy 2/3's of a year birthday Gabrielle!!! :D
