8 months

Nora was 8 months old yesterday! She's growing and changing so quickly these days as she takes everything in and learns about her world. She is a very busy little girl, always wanting to be on the move. She has started creeping/crawling, so she can roll, scoot and wiggle to just about wherever she wants to go. Soon enough she'll figure out how to use her knees and then we'll all be on the move around here! 

She has started eating baby food regularly (more than the trial one or two bites per day of last month) and carrots are her favorite. She ate a whole container of them the other night! She especially likes to eat while we are, and she loves to gum on bagels and other hard breads since she has two teeth trying to come in.

Here are some other firsts of the last month:

first cold :(

first Thanksgiving

first Christmas tree decorating (she wanted to eat the ornaments)

first ice/snow storm - bundle up!

first blow-dried hair

working on hand-eye-mouth coordination with some blueberry puffs
