Scarlett Update- long overdue!






Scarlett is 8 months old as of about two weeks ago. She celebrated her 8 month birthday by accomplishing a feat that Dylan didn't master until he was nearly 1. She stood up to the fireplace bench in the Tucker's house. Yes, our amazingly small baby can pull herself up on just about anything to stand up. She stands up in her crib, against the sliding glass window, etc. It looks sooo weird because she's so tiny. She's about the size Dylan was at 4 months, but she's mastered skills he didn't have until he was nearly 1. Crazy. She's been crawling for about a month as well, so she's into everything. Her favorite pastime is emptying all of her toys and diapers out of the basket in the living room. She also likes to go exploring in the mess that is Dylan's room. As you may see in the pictures, she had her first pedicure. Tiny hot pink toes are so cute.

She also has her first ear infection, well one in each ear actually. Poor baby.
She weighs 15 lbs.
She's not a big fan of solid foods.
She throws quite the fit if you take something away from her.
She says "mama" (even if she doesn't know what it means). And she mimics sounds a lot.
She does this adorable thing where she puts her head against Brad's and shakes her head back and forth. It's really cute.
Oh, and she loves to be carried around by Dylan in "bear hug" style. She just smiles and kicks her feet like crazy.

She's so cute. But I'm prejudiced, I know! Where did you ever find grass dry enough to sit on?
