Caroline is 8 months!

So Caroline obviously loves the Gerber Graduates Bitter Biscuits! I am not sure why I never gave them to Taylor, well guess it could be b/c they are extremely messy :)
It definitely keeps Caroline content and occupied for a while though! As Taylor ran through the sprinkler on Saturday, Caroline and I sat on the porch watching and C eating her biscuit. These pictures were so funny as Caroline looked like one Hot Mess!!!
Sorry for the picture over load, but I laugh every time I see them and couldn't pick which ones to post.



Silly Taylor...she was insistent that I take her picture laying in the drive way?!

Messy girl!
So Caroline had to go into the Dr. for a sick visit around her 8 month birthday and she weighed in at 16 lbs. She is getter bigger by the day! Fortunately she didn't have an ear infection although they think she may suffer from allergies like Rob. We started giving her Zyrtec at night. So far it seems to be helping and now with the weather finally getting warmer and more consistent hopefully we can get rid of the runny nose and bad cough! Caroline is a mover and a shaker. We can barely hold her as she just wants to stand or move around all the time. She got her first tooth (the bottom left) the week she turned 8 months and I just noticed tonight that the bottom right tooth is starting to surface too.
She is still getting a little frustrated that she can't move around as quickly as she would like. She is able to move backwards and is working on the forward motion.
She has gotten up on her knees and done one or two knee moves...then she flattens out kicks her feet and arms or pushes up on her toes into a push up position...Oh yes we have been practicing that one, as some of you know she and Taylor will be doing push ups and crunches soon in class with me...just kidding :-)
Caroline is growing up too fast and so is her big sister Taylor! I try to cherish every moment and every new milestone.
