8 Months

Madeleine is growing like a weed and time is speeding by.  This month has been an eventful one, full of travel and moving.  She has now lived in 3 different states since birth- Michigan, New Jersey and now Minneapolis.

No stats for her this month, because we won't be returning to the doctor until we return to Michigan.  But her milestones are:

-Can now feed herself in her high chair.  Continues to love her squeeze pouches, but also can feed herself small, cut up foods.  She's tried all kinds of things from scrambled eggs to chocolate ice cream (not much of course)

-Pulls herself up to standing (June 18- first time)
I was able to document it!

-Starting to learn to crawl on her knees

-Climbs up stairs (just one at a time)

-Working on a third tooth

I've been practicing my photography so here are some shots of her this month.  They would have turned out better if I could get her to look at me.  (I couldn't get her to smile or look at me when I liked the light or the background. Oh well)


Her classic face- always running her tongue over her bottom teeth.

  1. Wow! It seems like you just had her. By the way, she has gorgeous eyes! I'm hoping we end up with a blue eyed baby at some point.

    1. Thanks! Her eyes are definitely one of her best features. It's scary how much she looks like Brody though! I hope you get a blue eyed one too! Hope that the girls can meet someday! I got to go to lunch w Emily while in Arizona it was fun reminiscing about old times!
