8 month Sophie update

Sophie at 8 months is working her way up to full "Cyclone Sophie" status. She is moving around more quickly, not quite at a full fledged crawl, but certainly a force to be reckoned with. She cannot be trusted to stay put anywhere unless she is strapped into a car seat. She also really wants to stand and walk, which, for the record, we are NOT encouraging.




Sophie has also learned to clap her hands so that she can request her favourite song- patty cake. She loves to sing along with everyone else at her loudest volume setting and grins when she earns smiles from those watching.






Just like her brother at this age, Sophie is an enthusiastic eater. When she got to the end of her first couple mum-mum crackers, she wept. Not sure if it was because she thought there were no more, or she bit her fingers with that sharp little tooth of hers. At present Sophie still just has one bottom front tooth, but I think its partner can't be far behind now.



I predict her 9 month mug shot might just be a pink blur. Eeyore has no chance of keeping up with this one for much longer.
