Our little Peach has her first Christmas coming up and I am so excited I can hardly contain myself. :) So far she has a musical table, "Peas and Thank You" (a Veggie Tales book), and a little turtle shape-sorter wrapped under the tree. I still plan on getting her a set of rubber blocks for her to practice her stacking skills... and something penguin because the child has fallen in love with penguins. I was thinking of a pillow pet even though she's not supposed to sleep with a pillow yet... maybe I'll save that for her first birthday.
On her first Thanksgiving, she got to savor her first lollipop. And when I say savor...
I...
For those of you wondering, no she didn't become a crazy baby and yes she napped afterward. :) Our little Peach is now 8 months old... she's very close to crawling, but that doesn't stop her from being completely mobile. She has decided that she can get places a lot faster if she just rolls across the floor, so that's what she does. She can "crawl" with her legs, but hasn't figured out how to lift up her hand and coordinate movement. Instead, she sticks her butt way up in the air, feet on her tippy toes, hands flat, and then just gives up and rolls across the room to her destination. :) I love it.
She is a happy baby... an adventurous eater, curious of the world around her, loves to laugh and smile at everyone... she's the greatest gift this Christmas season. I know this is a mom cliche, but I don't care: I have the greatest daughter in the world.
