Gillian - 8 months old
Gillian is a busy little girl these days. She is just growing and changing right before our very eyes. She has learned to sit-up, although getting down to her tummy is sometimes more rough than others. She is so close to crawling. She has the moves, she just needs to coordinate it all together. I have seen her do it for a couple of lengths, but then she resorts to the army man crawl or rolling. She is getting more and more vocal - her latest is growling. It is quite humorous the listen to. She is discovering her voice and the volume that comes with it. She sometimes will squeal while playing or flat out yell. She is very happy and smiles and laughs quite a bit. She is getting much better at eating solids. She has 2 meals a day of fruits and veggies and also has been eating the Gerber Finger Food Puffs. Her hand-eye coordination is pretty good. Sitting and playing - it's a whole new world!
We figured out we could put Gillian in her bathtub in the big bathtub and she and Alistair could bathe together. They have the best time. Alistair invites Gillian to take a bath with him whenever he is going to take one. She loves laying there and watching him. She kicks and splashes and laughs at him.
Almost there - crawling around the house is imminent!
Gillian loves her big brother!
Our little ham. I was taking photos of them in their jammies and every time I raised the camera and said smile, she would flash this big, gummy smile. This photo makes me smile because not only is the big, gummy smile present, but she also tilted her head! She is a natural!
