8 months


Camille is getting big. Too big. She started army crawling about 2 weeks ago. She drags her body along with her. Now she is starting to get her legs up under her. Either her weight is up on her arms or legs. Not both yet. If you help her get to a crawling position she rocks and rocks. She can pivot 360 degrees on her belly or her bum-bum. If she is sitting and sees a toy she wants she gets to her belly and army crawls for it. She is just all over the place. She also has gotten herself to a sitting position from her belly about 7 times now. Once even in the middle of the night. She gets so proud of herself and just claps and claps. The other day I put her down for a nap and she was fussing kind of. Just protesting. Finally after about 10 minutes she was quiet. I peaked in expecting to find her sleeping but no, she was sitting up playing with her giraffe. That was the first time I found her like that. It was really cute. She gave me the biggest smile and I just could not help getting her up. She sleeps on her belly all curled up with her giraffe. I also find her sleeping with her knees tucked up under her and her bum-bum up in the air. She loves non-toys better then real toys. She is getting her top teeth. One has broken through the gums. We are waiting on the other. She will eat any baby veggie and fruit you give her other then peaches. She is also eating cheese, bread, yogurt, cheerios and these dried fruit things I found at Costco (not puffs). She is a piggy; she eats 3 things of baby food a day and she wants to eat everything I do. She just stars at it. I kind of feel bad eating in front of her. I was going to start her on meats last week but she was sick. As soon as she is back to eating normal I will. She still adores her big sis. In the car yesterday they were just laughing at each other. I have no idea what they were laughing at. They were in their own little world that we adults could not understand. She is a good sleeper; we don’t struggle with naps or bedtime at all. She is still up too much at night but we are working on that. As soon as it gets better she starts teething or gets sick or we are in a strange place or something. She bounces to music and she bounces on your hip pretty much all the time when you hold her. She is a happy child.
