nat is 8 months old!

natalie had her 8 month birthday last week. she is still my happy girl, but she has a new side now, too. it goes something like this.

natalie: rolls every which way on the changing table trying to reach the basket of diapers.
me: "natalie, hold still!!"
natalie: continues to squirm and wiggle making it near impossible to diaper and dress her.
me: moves the basket.
natalie: "WAAAAHHHHH."

it's the most deafening scream. the boys NEVER screamed like that. it physically hurts my ears. and i can't even walk away, because most of the time she's still naked!

she's still so cute though! here are some other interesting facts about our 4th born:

-she has one tooth on the bottom left and her top left tooth just poked through today. cute!
-she likes to pat-a-cake with zachary.
-she claps when you say "yay!"
-she throws her arms down when she's mad.
-she has just started crying when i leave the room, but if i tell her i'm going to be right back, she'll stop.
-she primarily rolls to get where she wants to go, but she's recently started scooching.
-she is still not the best sitter. she doesn't know how to brace a fall. ouch.
-she has just started to eat more solid foods. so far she's had avacado, rice cereal, banana, and sweet potato. they were all a hit!

i predict she'll be getting around a lot more efficiently after spring break is over.

Emmarie does the same squirming thing when changing, except she bursts into crying for pretty much the whole time (unless she is holding something fun/new). GRRR! Way to go Natalie - 8 months! WOW! (I like the gummed/partially eaten sign)
