eight

Better late than never!  (poor second child...)  Sydney is indeed eight months old, and has grown up so much this past month.  She is crawling!  She crawled backwards for a few weeks before she finally figured out how to move forward.  Then it took her a day or two to get comfortable with her new found skill.  Now she is everywhere, following us all over the house.  She is also babbling "dadadadada" non-stop.  A conversation between us sounds something like this--
me: mamamama
Sydney: dadadada
me: mamamamamamama
Sydney: dadadadadadadada
Oh well, she'll get it eventually!  She also got her first illness this month, an ear infection.  Being sick has definitely turned her into a Mommy's Girl.  She has wanted me and only me lately.  I am enjoying this, because Sara Beth has been a Daddy's Girl since she was born.

Her current stats are...
21 lbs
size 4 diapers
size 12-18 month clothes
