My baby girl is 8 months old today.  I have no idea where the past 8 months have gone.  She’s gone from this tiny little blob of infant to this sitting, babbling, teething, smiling, laughing, yelling, gorgeous little girl.  It is truly amazing watching a child grow.  I just sit and watch the wheels turn in that little, well, big, head of hers.

Each week, she is learning to do something new.  I love the firsts.  The first time she sat in the grass and felt it on her feet and hands, the first time she noticed the cats, the first time she took a bath sitting up and realized she can splash the water.  It really makes you appreciate the simple things in life.  It’s the pure innocence that amazes me.  I wish that would never go away.
