8 Months Old!!!

Our little creep is 8 months old! She had quite an exciting month that included her first flight ever when she went to visit her cousins in Chicago. No Doctors visit this month so no updates on stats but we can tell she is gaining weight just fine by looking at her thighs and she is getting taller according to the clothes she is outgrowing.

New This Month- Afton is on the verge of crawling...when I say on the verge I mean she will probablly start by the time I am done with this post. She loves to feed herself whatever she can get her hands on. She had some MAJOR sleep issues this month that we seem to have overcome. After several nights spent reading her "Go the F to Sleep" from 2am to 5am each night we decided that we would just let her cry. She learned pretty quick that was not going to work for her and she is once again sleeping through the night. She pulls herself up in her crib which is a funny thing to walk into.
Favorite things- Still loves water. Her Drums, Puffs, Pants on her head, counting to 3 ( me counting to her) and eating.
Favorite Song of the Month- Hot Dog ( the mickey mouse song)
Favorite Car Song- Hello Dolly (dubbed the miracle song because it always stops her from crying)
Favorite Food- Bread, Bagels, Puffs and Winter Squash
Favorite Toy- Her Drums and Steve
Favorite Book- Brown Bear, Goodnight Moon
Favorite Words- MAMAMAM, DADADDADA, AACCKK, SSTTTT
What Makes her Laugh- Everything! It is so easy to make her laugh these days. Counting to three is a favorite as is playing peek-a-boo
