8 Months Old Already?!?!

Wow, it's October 10th and our little baby girl is 8 months old! Time flies and everyday gets better and better with our little Harper. Here are some updates on the adventures of Harper Rose...

1. Harper likes to pull on Kirby's ears and fur. It scares us because we don't know how Kirby will respond. Thankfully Kirby has been so patient and sits there and lets Harper do over and over.  When Kirby gets upset she just starts kissing Harper's face (most likely making sure to get any leftovers from dinner). We love our baby and our puppy so we don't want to see anything bad happen. 
2. Harper LOVES to stand up.  We will put our hands in front of her and she will grab onto them and push herself up. She sometimes will pretend to cry (she has us wrapped around her finger already) and wait for us to put our hands out so she can stand.  Every time she stands up she is so proud of herself.
3. Harper continues to roll around to get from point A to point B.  She will backwards crawl and she uses one leg to crawl in a circle.  She has yet to crawl forward.  That's ok with us because we are only 50% finished with baby proofing.  
4. Right now Harper's favorite toys are her "donuts". She plays with them every morning while we are getting ready for work and every night when we are making dinner. 
5. Harper also loves the Fisher Price apps on my phone and iPad.  She will play with these apps for about 10-15 minutes and then moves onto another toy or activity.  
6. Harper clearly says "Da-Da" now.  She is starting to say "Ba-Ba".  She has been saying these words for awhile now but it is starting to sound like real words now.  
7. Harper's 3rd tooth arrived on Sunday, October 7th.  It is another bottom tooth.  Most babies get their 2 bottom teeth followed by 2 top teeth.  Harper just loves to be different.  
8.  Lately Harper has been very cuddly.  When she gets tired at night she wants to be snuggly with us.  She will finish her bottle and snuggle before bed.  She will put her head on my shoulder when she is tired.  It makes my heart melt.  

We love our little munchkin.  8 Months later we couldn't imagine our lives without her.
