Going on 8 months!

Lily turns 8 months old today... she's growing like crazy and ever so proud of herself! We're proud of her too - she's happy, giggly, smart, beautiful (we know, the hair rocks), and has a great sense of humor! She loves to wave goodbye, she gets super excited to eat dinner at the table with Mom and Dad, gives us plenty of kisses and cuddly hugs, and chases Engine with a happy persistence. Lily plays contentedly by herself or with friends, loves to sit on Dad's lap, and is always pleased to chill in the carrier on our backs when we're out and about.
The above picture was taken while I (Jess) was doing a photo session at Peace Love Play. I turned around to see Lily, halfway across the playroom, contentedly talking to toy food... a piece of felt bacon in her mouth! She really enjoyed the toy food and cookware, and has taken to playing with Tupperware, measuring cups, and tuna cans at home. Maybe we'll have to invest in some felt bacon!
Lily is pulling up on everything and standing very confidently, and always proud of herself! She can get where she wants to go pretty fast. She loves helping us with important paperwork, taste-testing our cell phones, and turning off the PlayStation - she can even take the disk out! We're hoping she's pick up that only those round plastic disks go in that slot, not crackers and sandwiches!
We're loving our new place - it's got plenty of space for us and is in a beautiful setting. We often enjoy night time walks, the pool is just around the corner, and we've been meeting lots of kind neighbors who are all very fond of Lily!
Come and visit sometime, we'd love to see you!
