8 Months Already

I honestly can't believe how fast Lauren is growing. The time is whizzing by. She loves crawling from room to room and exploring. Her favorite toys right now are the remote control and Mom's cell phone. Go figure. (Note to self--continue to buy toys at rummage sales for pennies on the dollar since she only plays with them for about 3 minutes and then it's time for the remote...)

She is looking like a little lady each and every day.

We love our play group that we go to every week. It's a bunch of moms in the Brook Farms subdivision. We go to parks and it's so much fun!

The Little Gym

Yesterday Lauren and I visited The Little Gym in Appleton. It was super fun. The classes are for 4-10 month olds. She was a "bug" and had so much fun with the parachute, the bubbles, and the balance beam. We are working on improving her arm strength as she's crawling but sometimes stops because her arms aren't strong enough yet.

It was so cute on the way home; she was super tired! Her head hung from her shoulders in pure exhaustion. I wish I would have had a photo of it!
