How is this little sweetie 8 months old?!
Ellie has started doing so many new things just in the past few weeks. I forget about all these little milestones and how I need to cherish them because it goes by so fast.
She is now able to go from laying to sitting up on her own. This is one of those bitter/sweet milestones. When she is playing its great for her to be able to do this. It’s during bedtime that I don’t like it. Now when she wakes up at night she sits up and just cries instead of soothing herself back to sleep.
She isn’t officially crawling yet, but man can she get around. She scoots all over the place on her little booty. Just yesterday she started getting on all fours in the crawling position and looks like she might figure it out sooner than later!
She is trying to pull up on everything!! She can’t quite pull up all the way yet but she is getting close.
She learned how to clap. I have tried to get a picture of her clapping but she doesn’t want to cooperate. Her top teeth are about to come in, I can see them and I am just waiting for them to cut through.
She loves taking baths. She loves playing with her sisters. She loves to eat what we are eating, but still really likes her baby food too.
Ellie is enjoying her exersaucer more and more these days. We have had beautiful weather the past week and loves being outside!
I finally moved Ellie’s bed out of our room last week. Olivia was very excited to have a new roommate! Ellie is still a great baby during the day but we have taken a turn for the worst at night! It all started when we got back from our trip and I am hoping/waiting for this “phase” to be over. She still goes to bed great, no crying, but then she is waking up every couple of hours and it’s about to kill me! I am just hoping it has to do with these top teeth coming in and we can get back to normal soon(but I doubt it).
