8 months

Two-thirds of the way through her first year of life and yet already so full of personality. She's sitting on her own, has given up saying "da da" for "ma ma" (simply for the fun of blowing spit bubbles...), can crack herself up with the use of her very own tiny hands, rolls onto her tummy and attempts to scoot across the floor, eats anything and everything we've ever given her to try, seldom cries, and smiles big enough to light up a room.

And just when you think she's the sweetest most cutest thing in the world, try taking a toy away from her... you'll think you were tearing off a limb... oh yes... it's that bad...
