Ainslee turned 8 months old today. To mark the occasion she was promoted (by Mommy & Daddy) to the "Crawlers" room at church! She was starting to look a little out of place in the infant room. She is officially on the go now and has perfected her own crawling move that has become known as the inchworm by some friends of ours. She gets up on all fours, with her belly off the ground and moves her legs, but then belly flops so that she can drag herself by the arms. The result is something resembling a late 80's dance move, but hey it works! She has already started pulling up on things or us and loves to walk holding our hands. She has been constantly amazing us with her new abilities this month. She recently learned how to wave to us, using her entire arm. She waves whenever we walk in the room and she will now even wave at Charley cat whenever she sees him. Ainslee has also become quite the Daddy's girl this summer. She gets so excited every time her Daddy walks in the room and gives him huge grins. She loves to use him as a jungle gym while he plays with her on the floor. I'm afraid she is really going to miss him once football season kicks into full gear :( Ainslee is still not a big eater, but doesn't seem to be all that picky about what she eats. She has discovered a love for Gerber puffs, mostly because she can feed them to herself. She now babbles ALL the time, and we are anxious to learn what it is she is trying to tell us. She also still loves to be out and about and is quite the people watcher. She loves going on walks with us in the evenings and likes it when we stop at the neighborhood park to let her swing.
She has gotten on a great schedule this summer & runs pretty much like clockwork:
8:15 - wake up/breakfast
10:00- nap
11:30- lunch
1:30- nap
3:30-snack
5:30- cat nap
6:30- dinner
8:00- bedtime
