Elaina is 8 months old!!!!

It's March 6th, 2008 and Elaina hit the 8 month mark today. Needless to say she is still growing and doing new things every day. She had a doctors appointment last week and she weighed in at 17 pounds, 10 oz. So, she gained 1 pound in less then a month. That solid food is bulking our little girl up. This past month was a big one for Elaina as far as developmental milestones. This past month she has:

• started sitting up completely unassisted
• scooting (backwards) and spinning on her belly
• pulling herself up from a seated position (when she can get a good hold of something sturdy)
• cut her two bottom teeth
• clapping
• waving bye-bye or hi (whichever way you chose to see it)

Here a couple of recent shots of Elaina.........

Standing ----- that's all she wants to do lately

Wearing her daddy's hat

Just a video of her clapping... I tried to get her to wave but all she would do was clap. Oh well!
