8 Months Brooklyn Clare!


Brooklyn Clare, 
Can you get any cuter?!! I swear every month you get cuter and cuter! All of your pictures portray how you are ALL the time HAPPY.  You are just such a joy to be around, you stop traffic at stores because everyone has to look at you. Although you are super laid back and happy, you don't hand out those smiles for free! Stranger danger! 
This month you started hold your arms up to be held and you always let us know when that is :) You are really good at playing by yourself or with your brother but you have a limit. You prefer to have me in your line vision at all times and will cry hysterically if I leave the room. You love all of Jackson's toys and this little play house. Your lion is your favorite thing! You wake up kicking and playing with the lion every morning. Right before your 8 month birthday you started crawling!! It just took an iPhone and daddy watching and you did it. The first two weeks you were somewhat slow but not anymore! 
You had your first (ok really second) road trip Atlanta where you saw your cousins, went to the Aquarium and Stone Mountain. As usual you were a trooper through it all! At little fussy in the car but we quickly found out it was because you were getting way too hot (I have no rear air). 
You still nurse 7 times a day and are up 1x a night sometimes 2 sometimes none. You take 2-3 naps a day for about an hour or two. You have grown to tolerate baby food and you seem to love green vegetables and some meat. You hate the fruit. Complete opposite of your brother. 
We have truly enjoyed every minute and can't believe your first birthday is just around the corner (mommy will be crying).
