So, I'm entering Liana in a contest for a cute baby - the photo to be on the cover of a new Dr. Sears book. Well, if Liana isn't just the cutest baby out there (no bias from her mommy!)...
This is the photo I'm thinking of submitting...
That's her tray of toys. That photo was taken October 8th, 2008. She's 7 months old in the pic. She doesn't yet care for solid foods. I've tried all sorts of things and nothing suits her fancy - just mommy's milk. That's good - it's great for her! I wish we had an equivalent for adults - something that was so nutritious and provided immunity to so many sicknesses! If only all mommy's knew to breastfeed. It's a shame that formula companies have so much money.
She's also trying to move - crawl and walk. It seems she'd rather walk, but at the very least move on her own. She scoots quite well and is making progress with rocking. Several folks have said how important it is that she crawl at some point...when she's 9 months or 9 years...she just needs to crawl! I hope for 9 months ;)
Well, our precious little gift is 8 months old and growing fast. I just can't believe how much time has flown by and how big she is. She truly is a joy.
