Big changes are happening

On Monday, just a few days before she turned 8 months old, we had to say goodbye to Sophia's gummy smile, and hello to her first tooth! It broke through her gums, and and it looks like we have a lot more coming soon. Poor mommy is all I can say. Since Sophia is still nursing, I do not appreciate the new tooth and how it has caused her to start biting me! 

Another change is that she is really trying to crawl. She rolls all over, but now is spending more and more time on her stomach trying to move forward. She has figured out that if she can get off the carpet and onto the wood floor that she can scoot and slide. I think it's time to start baby-proofing this house. 

Last, but not least, Sophia turned 8 months old yesterday (January 7th)! This year is flying by, and before we know it she's going to be a year old. It just makes me realize how important it is to cherish every moment I have with her because she is only this young once. I don't want to miss anything!
