Lauren is 8 Months Old!! - And Pics of the Big Kids!!

Where have the last 8 months gone?? It's hard to believe baby Lauren is 8 months old now!! She is growing up so fast and developing into her own personality. She is such a precious little girl, who is loved by so many people. Especially her big brother and big sister. Ashlyn can really get her laughing good, and Jacob has a special touch and sound to his voice that just calms her. It amazes me when I watch her look up to them and to see that special bond.

Some updates on Lauren - She is beginning to crawl (in her own way)!! It is so cute to watch her scoot herself forward to where she wants to go. I'm hoping to get a good video of her doing it so I can post it for you all to see. Since we got back from Kansas City, she is also eating much better with her solid foods. It's so good, that she is grabbing "real" food out of my hands to eat. I'm curious to see how much she weighs at her next check-up. She is also doing MUCH BETTER with sleeping at night. She went from waking up several times a night a week ago to only once now. Mommy is loving this!! Now I can stay up until 1am posting to the blog and not be a zombie the next day. ;-)

Here is a picture of our beautiful little princess sound asleep in dreamland!!

I finally graduated her to the big bathtub! She took a bath like a big girl with her sister and LOVED it!! She enjoyed her new bath toys, and watching her sister play in the water.
