Time Flies When You're Having Fun!

I can't believe it's been 8 months already!!
It feels like just yesterday we were nervously driving home from Mount Sinai with our precious cargo snuggled in her car seat for the first time!!
We had no idea how much our lives would change! The sleepless nights and endless diapers became a part of our every day lives.
In the past 8 months, we've gotten Charlotte sleeping in her crib, mostly through the night. While I'm still breastfeeding, we've successfully introduced many solid foods, and she loves them all!! We are slowly starting with the finger foods. She loves to feed herself banana, peas and cheese.
I've been enjoying every minute of my maternity leave with Char. She has travelled to Timmins, Sudbury, North Bay, Peterborough, Bowmanville...the list goes on. She even went on the plane!
She has 4 teeth and wants to crawl, although she hasn't quite figured out how yet. I'm ok with that!
She keeps very busy by grabbing and trying to eat everything in sight, including Rambo and Oreo's poor tails.
It's so much fun to see this little person grow in front of our eyes.Every day she does something new.
Melvin has become an amazing father, not that I had any doubts, but he's always there to help me out. Even in the middle of the night. She loves her cuddles with her dad and he has that special touch when she just won't go back to sleep. I love watching their bond grow, it just makes my heart smile. She is daddy's little girl and already has him wrapped around her little finger.

Charlotte will be starting day care in April when I go back to work. I'm looking forward to her personality growing and changing even more when she starts making new friends.
Here is Charlotte in the very early days, and 8 months later!
