A bit over 8 months.

Dear Althea,
You are about 8 months and a week old and in the past few weeks alone you've started sitting up, crawling, pulling yourself standing up, and you are already talking! You now say mama, dada, yeah, oh yeah, nah, and what? LOL You also babble in baby talk in which we have no clue what you're saying which seems to upset you sometimes lol.
You also laugh when you're angry and when you're happy and we can only tell if you either screech in frustration or squeal in delight lol.
You are super easy going for the most part and you love observing things around you. Although, it does cause you to frequently fight sleep because you seem to not want to miss anything.
You are so freaking cute. You've also got two little teeth in on the bottom but so far no signs of any other teeth. You also had a weight appointment about a week ago and you are about 16 lbs.
I love having you here, you are so sweet, cuddly, loving, and you're so calm for the most part - very go with the flow.
Oh and you've also tried some lemon and blueberry recently - in which you LOVE lemon but you really don't like blueberry lol. When you tried the blueberry it was hilarious because we could see your thought process. Every time you held a blueberry up between your fingers and you looked at it your face would instantly shiver with disgust lmao. After a few tastes you decided that it was very upsetting and that you absolutely would not be trying it anymore lol. But yet the lemon you nomed on happily and you seemingly shivered with delight when it was quite sweet for you before eating more.
You've been here only 8 short months and of course I can't imagine our life without you. I can't wait to continue watching you and guiding you into the person you're meant to become as we experience this human experience together. <3
I love you my little pudge,
<3 Love Mommy.
