8 Months Old!

Can you believe Kaia is 8 months old today? Unbelievable! Our precious little girl is growing so quickly and is constantly learning new things. It's so fascinating just to sit back and watch her learn! Just this past week she learned how to click her tongue to the back of her teeth and has been clicking ever since. Whenever we make the sound she mimics it and is so proud of herself! She starts shaking both hands in the air, her sign for being excited. On Saturday Kaia started feeding herself some finger food. We started with some breadstick, which she took out of my hand and put in her mouth all by herself. Now we've moved on to Gerber Puffs, which are a little bigger than cheerios. She can pick those up off her tray and feed herself. We praise her each time she does it and she gets so excited! She's cruising all over the place and is a pro at pulling herself up and sitting back down. She's also pretty good at entertaining herself with her toys, provided I don't get too far away. She especially loves toys that talk and play music. Her new favorite is an activity table that plays lots of music. She could stand at that for quite a while and play. When the music plays she bounces up and down like she's dancing. It's a great age and we can't wait to see what she does next!
