Stella is 8 Months Young

It's been a cold month here in Philly with lots of snow, it almost feels like we're back in Utah, well... not quite. We had lots of snow days and time at home to watch Stella grow and learn to crawl.

At first she had a gimp leg crawl (she kept her left leg completely straight and pushed off the foot while her right knee would bend like a normal crawl.) After a few days though, she mastered it and now she literally flies around the house and tries to keep up with Morris. Consequently, she has now also learned the word "no" as Mike and I run around the house trying to save her.  We're all baby proofed now with the gate, the outlet covers...etc.  I guess we're officially parents.

Stella can also pull herself up to standing now and has 5 teeth or 3 teeth and 2 teeth buds. 

She's eating more and more solid foods and as you'll see in the video she loves to spit her water out all over the place. 

She is ticklish now too, which is so fun.  We love that we can make her laugh any time we want to.
