Time is going by so fast! Eight months already! I think I say this every month, but Delilah's personality is really coming out. She is our little comedienne at the dinner table. She loves a good game of "monkey-see, monkey-do." She likes to alternate between slapping her hand down on the tray of her highchair, looking straight up and then back down, and laying her head to the side. It is the funniest thing! She loves when we all imitate her and laugh with her!
She likes standing. Her new favorite toy is the activity table. She loves pushing the buttons and watching the lights. She does a little bit of stepping and bouncing in place when she's standing. It almost looks like she's dancing! She *can* pull herself up, but I'm not sure that she realizes that she can do it yet. I don't think it will be too long though.
She is still doing her low crawl. She will get up on her hands and knees, rock a little bit, and then collapse on her stomach and pull herself along. She also appears to be doing some yoga. She gets up on her feet with her hands on the floor in a downward-facing dog position. She also loves using the raking motion with her hand. Anything you put her hand on, she'll start raking her fingers back and forth. In fact, she has taken 3 keys off my laptop!
Delilah continues to be enamoured with her big brother. He can get her to laugh harder than her Daddy and I!! He is such a good helper with her...for the most part. :-) Jameson is always looking out for baby D. For example, when I'm leaving for work, I'll give everyone a kiss and Jameson will say "And baby kiss?".
Oh and Delilah has a 8 month birthday gift for herself - her front teeth! She's been working on them for a couple of days now. Poor baby, these teeth have been really hard on her.
