Diana's Delights: 8 months old and 4 year anniversary

Brielle you are 8 months old...what are you up to......

*we have moved you up to size 3 diapers...they are a little big but the 2's are way too small, your an in betweeny right now.
*you have started to bounce up and down when you hear music
*you love to be read to and love books, you never try to grab for the book when we are reading to you which is crazy cause you want everything and anything else you can get your hands on.
*still no teeth
*you are holding on to mommy and daddy's shoulders when we hold you now instead of just letting your arms fly around all crazy.
*you have learned how to get into a sitting position from laying down...sometimes you even fall asleep sitting up b/c you can't figure out how to get back to a laying position haha but not all the time
*you are holding your own bottle pretty well now, you even lift it up when its almost all gone to get more out of it
*you move all over the place, your not completely crawling yet, you will push off with your toes. you take a step with one hand, then your knee, then your other hand but give up when it comes to moving that other knee.
*you started feeding yourself puffs and you love it and so do I!
*you are wearing 6 to 9 month clothes and even some 12 month clothes too!

My last time nursing you, you were ready to be done with it at 4 months but I couldn't let you stop that soon!!! Nursing was one of the hardest things I've ever done and I hated it at first. Then I grew to love it and I'm going to miss it so much! I'm very happy and proud that I was determined and able to do it this long! It's a blessing that's for sure and I know we will both benefit from it greatly!

Last week was our 4 year wedding anniversary (June 23rd to be exact). I can't believe it's already been 4 years! I love being married, I never really dated that much and was totally ready to find my husband when I was 16...well I found him at 17 so that's pretty good! I think God brought him to me so early because he knew I would freak out if I didn't know who I was marrying by the time I turned 20!! ;) Landon is the greatest man I know, he is my rock and the love of my life!

We went to the water park to celebrate since we both love the water and love being outside. It was sooo much fun but I totally wiped out on several of the rides more than once. I guess I get so scared that I tense up so much and end up hurting myself anyway haha!

This was one of the signs at the water park, I think they are really really paranoid about getting sued because there were ridiculous common sense signs everywhere!
