8 Months Old

Alyssa turned 8 months old yesterday!! She is doing so much now. She has been crawling since the beginning of March (4th). She actually pulled up to her feet before she crawled!! She is all over the place. She doesn't like to be contained by a crib or pack-n-play anymore, she would much rather be exploring on the floor. She hardly ever gets "stuck" in one place. If she falls from standing or crawling, she just keeps on going! This girl is tough! She can go from her tummy to sitting very easily now. She is starting to pull up on everything!! She was in the living room crawling and the next thing I knew she had pulled up on the couch! If Tiffany walks by without paying attention to her, she gets so upset! Tiffany and Wes can just look at her and talk and she will smile so big! She will get very excited. She is starting to be more vocal. She pretty much says, "dadadada dadadada" all the time. It is so cute! She also still loves loves loves her big brother! As she gets into things that she isn't supposed to while crawling, Nickolas will be sure to say, "No, Lyssa!!" Or if she somehow gets his cup, or paci, he will be sure to tell her, "No, No!" She is still around 20lbs and continues to stay healthy and out of the doctors office (except for the allergic reaction she had at the beginning of the month). Before we know it, we will be celebrating her first birthday! Crazyness. Here she is in her monkey pajamas. She is so cute. You might not be able to stand all this cuteness at one time. It's a lot! Enjoy!
