A Word About Girly

Our little punky girl is almost 8 months now and has made the leap that separates slug-babies from cute, interactive, sparkly babies. (She is the latter now). She still has her mohawk but has added to her punk look with two tiny little bottom teeth. We haven't gotten a picture of them yet because she only displays them for very special occasions.


She rolls around like a champ, sits up straight and tall with no help and can wiggle an impressive distance when our backs are turned. She loves her brother even when he's a little bit rough with her. She also loves to listen to her daddy's fiddling and her mama's singing. Books are another favorite, though she's as fond of eating them as of listening to the stories.


Her favorite game is peek-a-boo with blankets. Pretty simple: she lays on her back and pulls the blanket over her head, slaps her belly a few times, then pulls the blanket off and looks around. This adorable video is of said game. Her parents, of course, do not get bored with it, but we won't be offended if you do. Just don't tell us.



She doesn't sleep very well and we haven't figured out how to fix that one little flaw yet. I guess nobody is perfect. But she's pretty close.

  3. Ditto to all that's been said! I'm sorry she's not sleeping through the night. That is tough. Take comfort in knowing that you're not the only one up in the wee hours of the night (our first didn't sleep through the night till he was 18 months--BLECH!).
