244 Days

Dear Kacie,

You are 8 months old today!

8 MONTHS!!!!!!!

How did that happen?

You are just getting so big and of course, adorable!

You are walking around the edge of things, not much but just a little!

You are still terrified of the vacuum! Every time we pull it out we have to hold you because even the sight of it makes you antsy!

You are also terrified of the laundry room. I think it's just because it makes funny sounds and the door automatically shuts so you can't see us!

For president's day weekend we got to spend some extra time with dad! We took you to see the giant dinosaur at the mall.

Then we went to Macey's and got DELICIOUS ice cream cones. Daddy was a little naughty and fed some to you.

You were not very happy with him when he wasn't feeding it to you. You would kick your legs and bounce and squeal at him.

It was the best!

Church is right before nap time. You were so tired!

We took some cute cookies to our marriage and family class. They are husband and wife cookies!

There was a lot of sleeping this weekend between you and your father!

It is so fun to watch him take care of you. He loves being your daddy!

But, after the naps were over, dad had to get some stuff done. So you and I went to the store to hang out for a couple hours. You refuse to sit straight so I just gave up and let you sit backwards!

Oh, and I also let you chew on the shopping cart… gross? Absolutely, but I wasn't going to fight you in public. Plus, it didn't last long.

The next picture is not for the weak. Kacie vomited aaallllll over the other day.

And of course, right after I put your cute outfit on!

You LOOOVE baths! We were in the kitchen and daddy turned on the water in the bathroom. As soon as you heard it you perked up, looked towards the bathroom and started crawling over there!

You are standing on your own for about 15 seconds at a time (at the longest) but then you get scared and make yourself fall! It's crazy because I have friends with babies that didn't start CRAWLING until 10 months and you started at 6 months!

We love this age you are at. It is so fun to see your little personality coming out! 

Daddy especially loves it because you respond to him and play with him!

He is finding that he will still be able to share the things that he loves with you, even though you're definitely going to go through a barbie and princess phase that daddy won't fully understand.

WE LOVE YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!

Love,

Dad and Mom
