Calleigh - 8 Months

Calleigh has started babbling. She can now say baba, bada, and mama.

She is so close to crawling. She can move all four limbs once then falls. I think she'll have it by next month. (I may have said that last month when she was moving her arms and one foot before falling.) She tries all the time. She gets to whatever she wants including Dax's toys. Dax is not great at sharing, but he's not horrible. He takes away whatever toy Calleigh has chosen and gives her a less desirable (at the moment) toy in its place. We are working on it.

She is such a happy baby (as long as mommy is close by:). We are working on that. Emily successfully took her today for 2 hours with no crying - yay! She has something against the church nursery - we've only made it through one hour for weeks now. My girl loves her mommy!

Calleigh will eat jar food as long as its carrots or sweet potatoes. Otherwise its finger food. Not big on the fruit, so we are doing freeze dried bananas, apples, & pineapples which seem to be working. She LOVES rice and apparently spagetti - she literally shovels these in. Of course bread and cheerios are staples as well.
