8 Months!

   Once again this post is quite a bit overdue...but our little PJ is 8 months old!!! I can't believe how fast this year is going! I want it to ssslllooooowwww right down. I am not ready for people to be saying "Oh! That means she is almost 1!" like the lady did at the restaurant last night. Yikes!!!! 

   She is such a happy baby!! She is almost always smiling and its so easy to get a giggle or a full belly laugh out of her! I foresee lots of JOY in this household in the coming years! She is definitely living up to her middle name! As you can see in the picture she is sitting on her own! She is also thinking of crawling...I think she'll be on the move before we know it! She is eating more solid foods - such as little pieces of bread, baby puffs, and cheerios. She is independent and loves feeding herself. She plays so nicely on her own and spends a good bit of time in the playpen which we have set up in the kitchen. She plays in there while I do dishes or make supper. She and I "talk" almost all day. She babbles and grunts and "spits" at me while I tell her what I am doing. Or we copy each other, which is a lot of fun! 
   We love having PJ around our house!!! What a fun 8 months these have been!
