8 months.

here are the latest photos of our big girl.

8 months is such a fun age!

and i am amazed...

everyday we love her a MILLION times more than the day before!

don't know how that's possible!

she waves hi with some encouragement & patience!

crawling!

her new tricks:
+ using her pincer grasp
+ crawling backwards
+ waving
+ dancing to daddy's guitar-playing
+ words: "mama", "dada", "baba", "nana", "yah"
(wishful thinking that she is using them functionally!)

some of violet's favorite things:
+ playing with daddy when he gets home from work
+ being outside
+ animals!
+ playing with the ipad, iphone, and remote control
+ fruit (even though she only had veggies for her first month of solids!)
+ swimming & taking baths
+ kissing mama's face

she is so much fun to be with!
we are just so blessed!
