K turned 8 months today. She started crawling on her hands and knees a few weeks ago and that same week started getting into the sitting position on her own and pulling up. She started babbling yesterday and makes the "dada" sound. She seems to do things very suddenly without too much buildup most of the time. She is doing better about eating and generally eats a bit at each meal or at least 2 out of the 3 a day. She loves avocado, and she won't eat the other things if she see that I have avocado. She's averaging about 3 ounces of formula a day, and she is willing to take a bottle now when she's away from me. She's in a pretty clingy phase right now and wants me to be near as she crawls around. She hits herself into my desk if I'm trying to work while she's awake. She loves going to the baby storytime group at the library. She's very good at church and out in public in general. She really loves playing with her daddy.
I'm in a really busy mode right now and probably won't be posting much other than the monthly updates until at least her birthday (Easter) in April. I'm still reading; I just don't have time to comment. I'm pray for you all.
