8 Months Old
Today Elise is 8 months old. She is busy exploring her world.
She loves to feed herself, and Cheerios is one of her favorite treats. She can also stand for many minutes if she is next to a couch, and she is beginning to learn how to crawl towards a toy or something else that intrigues her. She also loves to walk while holding on to our hands. While these new milestones are so fun to celebrate with her, we're also discovering that she is more easily frustrated when she can't move as quickly as she'd like, or is unable to reach something beyond her, and we are not very excited about the excessive whining that ensues. John loves to have her ride around on his shoulders, and she will bounce up and down to keep going. Ceasar has a new fondness for Elise since he's ready to eat any scraps that fall from the table or out of her hands when she's having a snack. Again, it's hard to believe how quickly the months are flying by.

I didn't realize she was so old. It is flying by! Glad we can see the videos.
Congratulations on so much accomplished, Elise! I love the careful planning on how to get from holding on to the basket, to getting to the floor! I do that, too, Elise! Love and hugs, your Oma
What a cutie! I love watching your videos of Elise. It's amazing how slowly the days go by but how quickly the months go by. You'll be glad you are recording it all!
