Dear Lucy,
You're becoming quite the biggie girl! Every week you bust out some new tricks to surprise me. You are an unassisted sitting pro now! You want to crawl so bad but all you have been doing the past few weeks is rocking on all fours. Also in gross motor skill news, your pincher grasp seems pretty good for an 8 month old. You love to babble and say things like dada, blah, abah, and when you're upset you say "M" sounds so I think you're trying to call me Mama.
You wrapped up your first extracurricular activity -- swim class! It was a fun Saturday morning tradition, but I think you're on to better things, like outside swimming pools. Maybe soon you'll graduate from the laundry basket in the tub to just the tub. :) You can now sit in restaurant high chairs and grocery carts. But you're super chatty and loud in restaurants, so we've been scaling back our dining out recently.
Your favorite things to grab are remote controls and our iPhones. You adore bouncing in your bounceroos and always laugh when we kiss your belly and make weird sounds. Your sleep is still about the same.You can sometimes lie down without crying, but often you'll rotate yourself to face the door, rock on all fours and cry. I think you're just really nosy and don't want to miss anything.
You continue to amaze me, and I love you more just a bit more than the previous day which I didn't think was possible. If it continues at this rate, my heart will collapse from all the pressure by the time you're 5. You're simply the best baby anyone could ever ask for. I know I'm incredibly blessed.
Love, Mommy
