8 months old

Natalie is 8 months old! Hard to believe!!!! I had someone tell me the other day how big she was. I looked at them and said really? She's still wearing 3-6mo clothes, and she is in the 25% for her weight, and they continued to tell me that she just looked "HUGE." The nerve huh?

Who knows, maybe she is huge, she is tipping the scale at 16lbs 4oz, 25%, 26 in., 70%, 17 in. h.c. 100%+. This month, she has gotten her bottom two teeth, grown enough hair for pig tails, wears size 2 shoes, mostly 3-6mo clothes, but needs some 6-9 or even 12 mo pants because they keep getting too short, which usually is not a big deal because she almost always wears dresses. She still doesn't like lying on her belly, and when I try to get her to crawl, growls at me until I pick her up as if to say, I'm not doing that! She still won't really stand up, but she is an awesome sitter, and rolls all over her crib in the night, it is quite humorous as you can see in the bottom picture the positions she gets herself into when I check on her, most often she is squished in the corner with her arms and legs dangling through the rails, it makes me laugh! She will hold her own bottle, except when she doesn't want to, and then she just pushes it at me until I will hold it for her.....(so demanding!) She loves her big brother, and he loves her!
Happy 8 month Birthday Natalie, we love you!
