Cheerios

Just about a week ago, LS hit the 8 month mark. She just takes it in stride at this point.

She heard from a friend of hers that he had started Cheerios, so she demanded we do the same. No teeth? No matter. A little chewing with the gums and they mush right up. Keep 'em coming.

Stat check: 16, and 25.75. Pounds and inches, respectively. "Nossa grande pequena" indeed.

Now, brash as she is, LS still knows she has to tackle these new things with care. So, she decided that as a first step she would practice picking up Cheerios and dropping them in her lap. Genius. That's Ok - keep it going; we've got a big box here.



LS then pulled the ol' "swat the Cheerio out of Mom's hand" gag. No matter how many times she told us this time she would really grab it, we kept falling for it.



It's hard to make out at normal speed, but seen here at 4X normal speed, parts of this are actually an intricate secret handshake.
