Mila - 8 Months Old

Mila....Mila....Pretty baby.....


Mila is 8 months old today and here's what she's up too:

• She's been trying to crawl for the past few weeks and she finally mastered it this week. I'm really not ready for this especially with our stairs. I guess it's time for baby gates.
• She can now sit herself up after laying on the floor.
• She has really become a Momma's girl lately. If she sees me or even just hears my voice she's crying for me.
• She also started pulling herself up on things this week.
• She still hates ALL baby food except for rice cereal and oatmeal. If it doesn't have any flavor SHE LOVES IT!
• She is finally starting to get some hair (even if it is a mohawk).
• She loves her bed! At night you lay her in it and she usually goes right to sleep. I also love to just listen to her on the baby monitor in the mornings. She'll just babble and play until you come and get her.
• She now has 6 teeth and doesn't seem to want to stop anytime soon. She's not a very good teether...she gets fever, runny nose, and gets VERY cranky.
• The girl LOVES ice. If you have a drink, you better be prepared to share...
• She says baba. I don't know if she knows what she's saying but it seems like it's when she wants a bottle... She also has to pull my hair when she drinks a bottle. If Jason's feeding her, she pinches his chin.

Mila has definitely been my most difficult baby thus far, but I wouldn't have it any other way...We're so glad she is a part of our family and enjoy her so much! We all love to see her accomplish the smallest milestones and look forward to her learning even more. I'm going to try and teach her to appreciate her time with daddy and playing on the floor more...we'll see.
