8 Months in 1 day

Hello everyone! We didn't realize how long we had left the blog...oops! Part of the reason was that she really hasn't done anything super new, just LOTS and LOTS of what she was doing before.

Rolling is now her main form of transportation as crawling hasn't quite started yet. She's SO close, but so far all it has seemed to do is slowly push her backwards, which of course she finds incredibly frustrating. Somewhat of a "Mom, how come the toy keeps getting farther away??" but I'm sure she'll get there very soon...but hopefully after we get the baby gate installed!

Solid foods (well, still pureed of course) are definitely going well too. She gets a lunch of 4 ounces of veggies, followed by whatever fruit we're working on - currently she's happily downing half a banana and half a kiwi. Dinner is another 4 ounces of veggies, some prunes, and a bit of cereal for dessert and iron. We had been doing meat, which she LOVED, but doctor has suggested a bit of a break till some things at the other end regulate a bit more...hopefully that will be soon, as much as she likes her prunes!

Mom is also realizing that Naomi's getting old because it's back to work soon! Only two more months and back to work. June is when Mom's going back to work so Naomi's all signed up for daycare. *sigh* Back to the daily grind! It will be a bit of an adjustment from spending all my time with a cute little baby to being back in the office and dealing with the CRA all the time - I will say baby beats CRA hands down, MUCH more predictable, which doesn't say much for the CRA, but it will be nice to have a different challenge again.

So that's all for now, more updates to come soon, probably after Easter when all the family visiting is done.
