8 Months old!







Another month flew by, but we are all doing good. It's great that spring is arriving, so we are able to get outside for some fresh air. Natalie is crawling around very fast, and keeping us on our toes. She's able to pull herself up on everything, and seeming to get braver everyday! We started parent/child swim lessons which she seems to really love. It's at the YMCA on Wed nights, and we have a big class this session. She's able to kick, splash, put her face in (that's her way of "blowing bubbles") and jump in from the side (well, more like fall in, but she loves it).
Natalie and I made a trip up to MN for my friend, Jill's baby shower. She did great during the drive, I left at 4 am, so she slept the majority of the way. It took us about 6 hours. We spent a week there, and it was fun to see family and friends. Natalie is getting a lot better about new people, and has started waving to everyone and clapping. It's adorable, especially when she randomly starts waving to pillows and the TV among other things. :-)
No teeth have poked through yet, but we can see the outline of her bottom two. Maybe next month we'll have a picture of her with some teeth! That's about all the news for now! We're going to go to the park since it's another nice day! Take care everyone. Love, Matt, Ann & Natalie
