Eight Months - So Curious

Baby T. makes eight months today! I can't believe how quickly time has passed.  She makes motherhood so much fun. Of course she's a lot of work but isn't that what I signed up for?

Here are some recent observations:

• Instead of fake coughing to get attention, Baby T. is starting to hyperventilate. It's very disconcerting.
• EVERYTHING she get her little hands on goes into her mouth. Her favorites are cell phones, remotes, video game controllers, and my fingers. 
• She's getting the hang of clapping, which is just too adorable.
• Baby T. is also able to sort of high-five if you put your hand up. I think she's just touching your hand because she's curious, but it still counts!
• She hasn't been into nursing as much, which is a relief for me. She seems to be weaning from Mama instead of Mama weaning baby.
• Baby T.'s hair was so long Dada T. gave her a haircut when I wasn't looking. I had a fit when I realized what he was doing. He had recently cut his own hair and figured he was a master stylist, omg. Little T. still looks cute, just a little feral.
• Lately, she's been really obsessed with Mama (me). Every time I leave the room (Dada T. is still there) she screams her head off until I come back. This makes me so thankful I'm working from home. When I go to the store or out to do errands, Dada T. reports that the baby cries and cries until she passes out. Omg. 

Overall, Baby T. is a joy. She makes me laugh and warms my heart when she smiles her gummy little smile. I can't wait to see what happens next!
