I don't know what it is about hitting the 8 month old mark, but more and more each day, it quickly feels as though our little baby is blossoming into a beautiful little lady. She is currently saying Mama, Dada, baba (bottle), and hi (though this takes a lot of coaxing to get out of her). She is sitting up really well on her own and scooting backwards (instead of crawling forward). She had her first tooth break through this past Sunday. We discovered this as she was drinking water out of a cup (yah... we somehow skipped the sippy cup but will be going back to introduce it as to avoid major messes), and we heard a clanging noise on the cup. If you'd like to see proof of her drinking water, click here. I took a ton of pictures today and have decided to post about 20. So here they are!
