8-months old!

Kira is 8-months old today! I seriously can't believe that in just 4 months I will have a one-year old. It really does go by in the blink of an eye. Kira has changed a ton in the last month. No teeth still, but we are expecting those top two any, as she has blisters that come and go and you can almost see where one is about to break through. Kira is full on crawling now. No more army crawl and she is everywhere. Her favorite place to navigate too is the kitchen and straight toward the dog bowl. I guess it is time to put the gate back up. She seems to be getting more vocal, as well. She is still not babbling consistently, but I am hearing more sounds everyday. She is also working on pulling herself up on furniture and people. Just today I came around the corner to find her standing up holding onto one of the dining room chairs. Kira continues to add new foods to her menu. At daycare she has had pancakes and waffles and just added some pasta. Jean, her daycare provider described her as a bottomless pit (where it goes I don't know because she is still so tiny!). She moved into Nathan's room over the past month, but is still not sleeping through the night (not even close I am afraid). She seems comfortable in the crib though and for the most part, Nathan doesn't seem to care too much, though he did deliberately wake her up the other night and then claim she was crying so he needed to sleep with us (yeah right buddy!).
