I haven't yet shared any of the sweet updates we get on Baby R. Here a few tidbits:
At 8 months:
"R. is dreamy! She is cuter in person than pictures can show and has a personality to match! She is doing very well developmentally and only needs to complete these skills on her chart, by the end of the 8th month: object if you take a toy away, clap hands or wave bye bye, walk holding on to furniture and stand alone momentarily. R. obviously has the energy and desire to develop and grow, and will continue to flourish over the coming months!"
Did you catch that? She's "dreamy." *sigh* And if she's cuter in person than she is in pictures, I don't know if we'll be able to handle all the excessive cuteness.
At nine months:
R. "loves to sleep, and makes the most of every nap, and is quite groggy when she wakes up. When she does wake up, she spends her time playing with toys in her bed, and when outside, developing her balance. She hasn't quite been able to stand alone, but can for a split second. After such trying tests, R. just wants to be held. She has two bottom teeth that are coming in nicely, and a full head of hair that is almost always held up with hair ties!"
Sounds like we have a sleeper! Yay. And seriously, this child has some hair. I think I'll be french braiding her hair when she's one. ;)

Oh, do you think she would share some of her hair with Amity? What a joy to get a glimpse of her personality and what a blessing that she will be coming to your home already knowing how to sleep! :)
