Updates on Autumn at 8-1/2 months

Autumn now has 6 teeth and loves to chew on Ronin’s sous’. When she does this Ronin says, “oh no, baby Almond spit up on Ronin’s sous!” But he doesn’t take it away from her. Now if she was chewing on a Thomas train – he would snatch that out of her hand in a moment! So far she doesn’t cry when he takes a toy away. But I think that will happen soon.

Autumn is also crawling across the house in record time. She is all over the place and will follow you whenever you go. But of you suddenly turn around and step over her she will cry – as she is feeling left out. She calls me “mama” all the time and gets excited when she sees Sean, Ronin, the cats and my mom’s dog Spike. She loves Spike. She pulled herself up to a standing position yesterday, with the aid of the couch, to see Leno, the cat walking around.

Yesterday I had Autumn drink out of a sippy cup yesterday. She found the water to be quite refreshing. She is also bathing in the duck bath as she has grown too big for the baby bath. I bought her a few feminine ducks to play with in the bath and she loves them. She splashes and plays in the water and loves bathing. Just like Ronin. Thank G-d they both take after me that way and not Sean (he bathes of course but hates to play in water!) When I pour water over her head she opens her mouth and sticks ou her cute little pink tongue. I think to drink the water. She laughs whenever she splashes herself. She is a very happy and content baby. She makes it easy.
