Ali is 8 months old!!

Well, Ali is now 8 months old, and doing amazing. I'm starting to feel like she is way too old, since the college is in final exams and she was born the first day of classes!

She has done/experienced a lot of firsts this past week, which has been a LOT of fun.

She learned to crawl on Wednesday, as well as discovered how to pull herself up to standing on things! It was a big day. Mommy was so proud of her (but wasn't ready to babyproof this apartment!)

Ali has also learned how to say 'hi'. She's been saying it for a little while, but it has taken me this long to believe that she might actually be saying it on purpose. Thankfully she learned mama before these other words!

We hope you are all having a great week!

Our 'huge' little girl turns 8 months old! Wow - the time sure flies!

She is so adorable though :)
And learning to get into trouble... at least she's getting into trouble with books!
We took her out into the grass for the first time, and boy did she hate it! This was the only semi-decent picture! The rest were of her crying... We hope she gets rid of her dislike for grass so we can play outside more.
Ali saw her first kite being flown, and played with this wind spinner thing... she had a blast outside as long as we didn't set her down in the grass!

We lowered her crib, and Ali was learning to stand up in her 'new' crib! How exciting for her!

And, she experienced bubbles for the first time too. Surprisingly, she wasn't all that impressed. I think she might have just been confused.
