8 months old!

Samantha turned 8 months old today, she is getting so big!!! It is amazing how much things have changed. We love her so much, and that love just grows more and more each day. She smiles and laughs at us so much, and hates when you take away a toy she is playing with. She is eating her puree’s and shows no interest in regular solids whatsoever. She now weighs 21lbs and is 29 inches long! We will find out more, including her percentiles, at next months checkup. Thankfully she does not have to have one this month which means no shots, except for the flu shot we will take her to get next week. We are spending more time playing and reading and singing with her than we ever got to before, because we have a great routine down, and she loves her routine. My baby is growing up so fast!

She has officially outgrown the sink bathtub and we are only using it for the purpose of taking her monthly pictures now. lol

She crawled two whole steps yesterday, and now today she is going after whatever she wants, specifically mail. lol. I just know she is going to be really crawling within the next month or so!

Also, today we figured out that she loves to watch her daddy try to "juggle" her blocks. :)

We have also been taking her to the park pretty often and walking around the neighborhood everyday so that she can enjoy the weather while it is still nice.

Dear God,

Thank you for everything that you do for us! You have blessed us so much, and we are so grateful. Thank you for giving us a beautiful HEALTHY daughter, who we love more and more each day. Thank you for giving us each other, and for the love that Patrick and I share. Thank you for our wonderful families and for the unconditional love that they give us. Thank you for watching over us, and reassuring us that things will work out they way they should, however that might be. Thank you so much for all that you do in our daily lives, and for loving us.
