Londyn is 8 months old! We have had a busy summer and we are enjoying it & loving watching Londyn grow & learn something new everyday!
You can see how long this photo session lasted! She wouldn’t lay still and kept grabbing for the flowers! Also, notice in the second picture above how LONG she is!

Londyn is loving puffs(all flavors) and teething crackers. If she is crabby I will give her a teething cracker and it will keep her content for like 20 minutes. And sometimes momma needs that 😉 She is trying anything and everything and it is hit or miss with what she will like. She loves puffs and peanut butter toast! She will eat waffles and yogurt a lot too but some days she only wants puffs!

She is talking up a storm! She will baby talk and occasionally say mama and dada. We don’t know for sure if she knows what she is saying but we like to pretend;) When she is crying it sounds like she is saying mama so I think she knows a little bit!

We took our first trip with Londyn this past month and she had a blast! We went to Florida (this is our annual trip with my family) and it was so much fun having her and my niece Carter Dale there! It was definitely a different kind of “vacation” then we are use to! But so much fun watching the babies play in the water, sand & ocean! The flight was what I was most nervous for, but I kind of had the attitude of “whatever happens, happens” you can’t always control when a baby will cry or get bored but I packed every trick in the book just in case! On the way there we had an early morning flight and she did pretty good. Napped a little, played a little and by the end of the 4 hour flight she was bored and ready to MOVE. It is a task to travel with a baby. So. Much. Stuff. Wow, and TSA doesn’t make it easy to go through security… they have to inspect any form of Milk for the baby which adds 10 mins to your security time, which is already too long. But we survived and on the way home Londyn slept for most of the flight. Mitch and I were able to watch Beauty & the Beast! She did get fussy near the end but mainly cause the flight attendant woke her up and was extremely load for it being 11PM! Overall it was a successful trip! Babies had lots of fun! Can’t wait till next year when she will be big enough to really enjoy the beach!

This past month we have been going on lots of morning walks and last week we went to the park and hung out for a little while. I think Londyn enjoyed having a change of scenery and getting out of the house!

Londyn went through a sleep regression, but I think we are almost through it and she is sleeping so much better again. I think vacation through her off her schedule and she was waking every 2 hours and only wanted to be held. Which was exhausting!
She is also going through separation anxiety which Google says is normal for around 8-10 months. She doesn’t like it when I leave the room and she cries, crawling after me. It is heartbreaking but I guess it’s normal and she will grow out of it. She is definitely a mamas girl and loves spending all day with me 😉

Londyn is climbing on EVERYTHING! She loves to pull herself up on toys, baskets, chairs, the couch. I am constantly telling her no or that she is gonna get hurt. This girl is on the move still. I’m curious what the doctor will say next month about all her moving and climbing. She has even stood on her own for a few seconds, she thinks she is bigger than she is! She loves to play with all her little people toys and follow duke around and steal his ball (she puts it in her mouth every time though, it kills me) she loves reading books and laughs every time we open the page to puppies. She loves dogs, Just like mama! 😉 We watched paw patrol for the first time today and she was clapping and laughing at all the puppies on the tv!
She is just so much fun and definitely is starting to have some sass and her personality is showing more and more. We have been saying we definitely have a little pistol on our hands cause she is sassy 😉
Can’t wait to see all her sass and watch her continue to grow. Still can’t believe she is 8 months old and in 4 months she will be 1!!! Aaahhh, cue the waterworks!

Here are tons of pictures from our trip!
