8 Months....

Another month has past and that means Little Miss is 8 months old!! I feel like the months are going by faster and faster these days which means before we know it will be celebrating Brinley's 1st birthday (stay tuned tomorrow for a preview of her 1st birthday theme).

Brinley's personality is really starting to blossom. We have a little girl who knows what she wants and she'll let you know if you aren't giving her that. Her smile never stops and she's talking more and more. She's also starting pulling up on things, she can't do it everytime yet, but she sure tries! Brinley has also started waving and has turned into a waving fool :)

Likes:
- Big people food (yogurt, oatmeal, pasta, ground turkey, pasta sauce, diced carrots, carrot sticks, green pepper sticks, and mashed potatoes)
- Standing up like a big girl (she no longer likes to sit)
- Pulling up on anything and everything
- Bath time
- Kids (especially Taylor and Devon, but when they aren't around any kid will do even random ones in stores make her giggle)
- Chewing on paper (I'm not sure why paper is her favorite, but if it's in site she'll do everything in her power to get it in her mouth)
- Clapping (she still needs help)
- Playing Patty Cake

Dislikes:
- Putting on shirts (something about putting her arms in the holes makes her mad)
- Getting paper taken away from her
- Jar baby food...the girl hates it, no matter what. (Some of the plastic Gerber stuff is ok, everything else she spits out)

I've also seen her first temper tantrum. It all happened because I didn't give her a carrot to chew on when she wanted it (I was trying to get her into the stroller first) she screamed and arched her back trying to throw herself out of the stroller. It was a lovely glimpse into our future :)
