At 8 months Lauren started working on crawling. Trying out her knees and doing planks. Going from laying down to sitting on her own. About a week before 9 months, she just took off. She is all over the place! A little scavenge,r trying to find any piece of anything to put in her mouth. We are back to using the baby gates. Though I have to keep my eye on her more, she is entertained for much longer periods of time now that she can explore.
This girl likes to eat just like her brother! She is self feeding entirely. She will sit in her high chair for a good 30 minutes just eating away. Some of her favs are peas, sweet potatoes, avocado and bluberries. She also eats proteins now like chicken, beef, salmon and eggs. Pretty much anything we make that is safe for her to eat I give it to her. I can't think of anything she doesn't like!
I am so excited to see the personality come out of this girl as she grows. She already knows she has to scream to be heard over everyone else. I have seen her adorably tugging on Whitney's nightgown and she belly laughs at Colin's goofiness. She also isn't afraid to pull some hair or climb on top of them either. I think she is going to stir up the pot a little bit with some feistiness!
We are so happy that Lauren is part of our family!
Exploring
Yay, I can crawl!
Double Trouble
I think I am such a big girl.
Her little alone time with me every day.
Don't worry Mom, I have these two under control!
