Today Kaia is eight-months-old. Eight months! Wow. She is growing and learning everyday. She continues to be the ever-happy baby and give the biggest, best smiles. She can do some other new things too:
Crawl! She's on the move and my life just picked up the pace a little. As soon as she hits the ground she is off and moving to the nearest exit. I guess the kitchen is an intriguing place to crawl around. Maybe because she's never seen the floor in there before.
Eat. She's a great eater and loves to feed herself. Cheerios are a favorite. She picks each one up with her tiny fingers, bites it in half, chews it, then pops in the other half. She learned that from me; I like to really savor the flavor of my favorite foods.
Babble. She is just as noisy as her big sister. In addition to oohing and ahhing, she says dada, gaga, and baba and makes lots of other interesting sounds. The other day she sounding like a honking goose.
Imitate. She doesn't do this much with me, but she does with Dustin. He will say, "dadada" and she'll repeat, or he'll stick out his tongue and she'll do it back.
Stand. She is still pretty unstable, but she loves to stand holding onto someone or something.
Take a bath in the big tub, sort of. She still sits in the baby tub, but she's in the big tub with her big sister. She splashes like crazy and would stay in there for hours if I let her.
