8 Months!!!!

I can't believe Miss Izzy J. is already 8 months old!!! And she is getting so big, it makes me sad :( Guess it will be time for another soon :)

At 8 months Isabella:
Has 2 teeth! The second one just popped through two days ago
Teething was NOT a pleasant experience for any one involved
She is still going to bed at 4:30, and (when not teething) gets up once a night, around 3 0r 4 to eat, then wakes up for the day between 6:30 and 7
Finally has somewhat of a nap schedule- 2 naps a day, one at 9 am for at least an hour, sometimes 2, then another at 1 for 40 minutes.
Le Sigh. Why don't my girls nap????
Eats and loves everything I give her- just started eating finger foods. Cheerios are her favorite :) All of her baby food has been homemade by mommy including: peas, carrots, butternutsquash, sweet potatoes, brocolli, green beans, chicken, turkey, apples, pears, bananas. Tofu & yogurt also, but mommy just buys that :)
Eats 3 meals a day
Still loving the cloth diapers
Finally hit 20 pounds!
Now is in a big girl carseat! (still facing backwards though)
Scooting around everywhere on her tummy, and starting to actually get up on her knees and crawl
Also starting to pull herself up on furniture! Oh dear.....
Is super attached to mommy
But a Daddy's girl as well
Wearing 12 month clothing
Loves to bounce when sitting and kick her legs and "jump" when laying down
Waving bye-bye!
and I SWEAR she is starting to do the "all done" baby sign. She did it once for sure :)
Still doesn't have much hair, but it is getting thicker. And its a light brown. Will it curl????
Loves to watch her big sister play with all the other preschoolers
Is a beautiful little girl and we love watching her personality come out and watch her grow.
Mommy, Daddy & big sister Jessica love her sooooooooo much!

love the "outtakes" of our monthly photo shoots. Always have one of her trying to crawl to me (and off the couch)
