Arms Up!

Stella's eighth month has been huge.

She has learned to kiss (though more "French" than probably appropriate...). She has perfected crawling (though it be a crazy crawl):




And a week or so ago, after months of saying it and showing it, she surprised us with an actual wave when we said, "Bye Bye".

She has made lots of friends:




And she has learned how to respond to the phrase "Arms up!":




She's also pulling up and standing for very long periods of time. She looks us square in the eye when we say words we've been trying to teach her, like "book", "Mama", and "Daddy". Huge messes are left everywhere she goes. Yes, this month has been huge. And so much more to come.

The videos are great! Thanks for posting them! In addition to becoming very mobile, she has also become SO vocal! To me, it even sounded like she said "mama" and "papa" in the first video as she was crawling towards the doors of Erik's office.

Oh my!! This is so precious! She's growing up so fast and man, she's got a set of pipes! No wonder, look at her mama and papa ;-)
