Playing with her toes

Penny was having a good time talking to her toes. They are usually hidden away because of the cold weather.

Penelope : 8 Months

She weighs 15 and 1/2 lbs. She sits and rolls and can push herself backward but has not achieved forward motion. She is much better at eating solids. She likes almost everything she's tried. She's had bread, avocado, banana, applesauce, sweet potatoes and soups. She can drink water out of a sippy cup. She has one bottom tooth.

Helena has a head full of curls.

Sitting up

This week Penelope has become much better at sitting unassisted. It's fun to have a new way to view the world.

"Bam! Bam bam bam!"

is what I hear whispered from the living room as a battle is quietly waged during rest.
