Lookie, Lookie!!

Look who crawled for the 1st time tonight!! It only took her 8 months and 5 days. :) It won't be long now before she's all over the place! Now I need to find one of those big octagonal baby gate thingys to contain her. There are just too many little toys. I'm so excited I got it on video though. I just happened to be sitting there taking pics of her when it happened. I had sat her up on the floor to play with her and brought out a bunch of the boys' baby toys. Next thing I know she's on her hands and knees reaching for a toy. I called dh over and he thinks this is probably the first time he's seen any of our kids crawl for the 1st time. Here are some pics and video!

A New Tooth

Tooth number two has broken thru! She'll have a mouth full at this rate! LOL Thankfully (knock on wood) she hasn't used them on anything but my finger yet!

First food

Bella got her first taste of "real" food tonight! She'll be 6 months old on Thursday. Wow.

She seemed to like it. She ate half a very small jar of sweet potatoes. I had to keep holding her hand(s) down though. I'd put food in her mouth and her fingers would quickly follow. She loves those fingers!

Before: I'm hungry Mama!!


I'll eat your finger if I can't have mine.


Hmm


What is this?? It doesn't taste like my mama milk!


Maybe it will be better with fingers.

Yea!! Milestone!

Bella rolled over today for the first time (and 2nd and 3rd too!) from back to tummy. She's been able to roll the opposite way but that's easy. She would be on her belly and lean over and just kinda roll. Tonight I was playing with her before bed and trying to make her laugh. All of a sudden, she just rolled! I went to get dh and Uncle Frankie and they came in and when I put her back on her back, she rolled again. Yea! She'll be 4 months old tomorrow. Someone make her stop growing!!
