Trouble at 8 Months Old

I'm in trouble with this one.  

She's 8 months old, but thinks she's 2. 

She's already furniture surfing and trying to climb out of her pack and play.  

Someone needs to remind her that she's still a baby, not a toddler.  

She has a brother she idolizes who walks and runs and has fun toys.  

So it's only natural she'd try and do exactly what he does.  

But I still want her to be a baby for just a little while longer.

She tries to get her brother's matchbox cars:

She watches Friends like Mommy:

She enlists her brother hold her sign because she can't be near it without eating it:

She tries to look all innocent:

She dances to Michael Jackson:

She pulls herself up:

She furniture surfs:

She idolizes her big brother:

She tries to climb out of her Pack n' Play:

                                      

But we love her tons.  

She laughs and smiles everyday.  

We love watching her learn and grow. Even if it is happening at warp speed.  

Miss Maeve, Happy 8 months.  We love you more than chocolate (which is a whole, whole lot).  

A Very Estee Christmas & New Year's Eve

We celebrated the Estee Christmas with a nice and relaxing brunch a few days after Christmas.  Both kids were spoiled rotten by their very generous grandparents and auntie!  I didn't get very many pictures because I was trying to keep Maeve in one spot because she kept trying to eat the wrapping paper.  So these are the only two I have:

I did, however, get a picture of the two of them on New Year's Eve.  I think I took about 20 pictures, but someone was ALWAYS moving, so only few were decent enough to show.  They're still blurry, but they're funny.
