Mary Catherine 8 months

Mary Catherine turned 8 months on February 4. Sometimes I look at her and wonder where the time has gone. It seems just like yesterday that we brought her home from the hospital. She is wearing a size 3 diaper and is in 6-9 month clothes. She is crawling army-style and can get around to anywhere she needs to go! She doesn't think twice about pulling up to a standing position either. She loves to play at the music table while she stands up. She just thinks it is funny.

She is eating all kinds of foods - and loving it. She even tried some real green beans from the kitchen the other day. I think her favorite though are the biter bisquits. She really goes to town on those :)

She has started taking her own hand to her mouth and making the "wah wah wah" sound. I will have to capture it on video - it's just too cute. As you can see in the pictures, she loves her tongue too. I think that is her favorite pose - sticking her tongue out :)

Now, as you all know, Ella's trade mark was her "singing" while she would eat. Some sort of musical inclination, right? Well, Mary Catherine has the grooves! The child will dance to ANYTHING! She hears music and she starts rocking. The other day, she even started rocking to the vacuum cleaner. Too funny!

Adorable, funny, precious, determined, smiles..the list could go on and on. We are blessed!
