8 Months, and climbing...


As I speak, I am watching my daughter climb up the stairs. Of course I'm not just letting her do this alone...my niece is close behind her. You cannot stop progress. She has to learn how to climb those things, and apparently, she is way ahead of schedule. According to the Parent.com web site, climbing doesn't start until after 12 months or more. My child is advanced, I tell ya!

Anyway, we're at the 8 month mark, and I think she is still simply amazing. She is now knee crawling, and quickly. She moves so fast across the floor, one minute you have her right in front of you, the next, she's across the hall. Now we're just waiting on her to take her first steps. I can't wait! Well, may be I can. I'm not ready to run around the house, chasing after her, right now. I'm trying to work up the strength to do that now, and she's just crawling.

Well, we took our first road trip this past weekend to Chattanooga to visit some friends, and we had a ball. I enjoyed my little pumpkin, and I can't wait for many other trips to come. For now, I'm going to go and try to braid my hair, and then go to bed. I am TIRED! Good night all!
