Charlotte is growing a little too fast

Charlotte is a tiny, sweet thing. She'll be eight months old in a few days. While we were in Indiana a month ago she finally started eating solid foods (yay bananas!) and she pulled herself up for the first time. She had just barely started sitting on her own before we got there. But that was only the beginning. In the course of two weeks she went from completely immobile to walking around furniture. None of my babies progressed so fast. She learned to crawl quickly. It started out as a modified army crawl where she would get up on her knees every third step or so and propel herself forward. It was only a few days before she was all hands and knees. She also learned how to get back into a sitting position, pull up on anything and walk around it, and go up the stairs. I hope she doesn't want to start walking anytime soon.

That is so funny that she just did everything all at once. She was biding her time, waiting for you to get comfortable, and now she's going to strike.

I can't believe she's growing up so fast! She looks so much like her brother and sister.

I agree with Katie. We miss watching the kids strutting their stuff. And isn't the outfit one that was also mine? Love it!
