8 Months Old!

Monday, February 24

OK, OK, so I'm a little late on the 8-month post! Turns out this full-time-Mom thing requires a lot of time. Who would have thought?!?!

We took our first road trip with the girls over President's Day weekend. We drove down to Lake Havasu to meet up with Grandma Carol, Grandpa Keith, and Nana for the girl's first "camping" trip. I use the word "camping" quite loosely considering we stayed in their motorhome with a full kitchen, bathroom, and satellite TV. That's my kind of camping!
London Bridge!

 Both of the girls caught a cold so there have been quite a few coughs and sniffles over the past week or so. The pediatrician thinks Kinley may have asthma problems like her daddy so she's been getting breathing treatments to help her lungs while she's sick.
Kinley looks calm here...but she does NOT like her mask!
 

Even though the girls are still not all that interested in solid foods, we finally set up the high chairs. They have turned into play centers for now. Devyn learned quite quickly that she likes the sound of her toys hitting the floor. I'm already tired of playing pick-them-up-before-I cry!

Devyn is starting to sit up on her own now. She does pretty well until she reaches for something and loses her balance...then TIMBERRRR!!! She's also starting to move around on her own. I wouldn't call it crawling....more like wiggling. And so far she can only spin around in one spot or wiggle backwards.

Kinley is not sitting up yet but is getting better at rolling over. We've noticed that she is starting to mimic others. Hopefully she'll see her sister starting to move around and decide she doesn't want to miss out on the fun.
