Emma is EIGHT months old!

I know I am posting this a little late. We have been so busy lately and our Internet at home has been a little slow. We are currently in Niceville, at my parent's house. Emma turned eight months old 2 weeks ago. She is getting cuter and more fun by the minute. She is currently so close to crawling. She isn't actually going anywhere yet. She can't figure out how to move, but she can get on all fours and rock. She is also trying to pull-up on everything! She can pull herself up to her knees, but not quite to her feet. If I put her standing up holding onto something, she can stay standing up for a quite a while. She is talking like crazy. Mostly "ba ba ba" or "ma ma ma." I don't think she knows that I'm mama, but she does know that it is associated with me. She has been saying it for quite a while, and it's usually when she wants me or when she is hungry. I love it! She can make the "g" sound too. She smiles ALL the time and laughs a lot too. She absolutely loves bouncing in one of her many jumpers. Her little legs are so strong. She is getting so smart with all of her toys. As she is playing, you can see her little mind thinking. I love it! She loves listening to stories, and can even turn the pages (sometimes when it's not time, haha).
