8 Months Old AND The Youngest Of 8

Baby Kate's 1st Greentree Parade: September 15, 2012 

A family fall favorite is the the Greentree Parade which goes right in front of our home...the kids love this...this year, Lizzy got up early to put out the blanket and chairs to hold our spot in front of our home...the favorite part for the kids is gathering, then eating all of the candy that is passed out...I'm not so sure this is a favorite family event of Baby Kate's just yet as she only had Cheerios to eat...then fell asleep in my arms before the hour long parade ended...

Baby Kate's gross motor skills are developing so quickly...
She even pulls herself up on the Exersaucer as it tilts to the side...
She is constantly pulling herself up on the hearth to play with toys...
Baby Kate also holds her arms out to be picked up...
She proudly sits in a booster seat...
 She even crawls to the back door to watch her siblings play in the back yard...
Baby Kate has clearly outgrown the bassinet, but Mommy wanted her in it just one more time...
She loves to put toys in her mouth and is used to being in front of a camera...
Baby Kate also likes to climb through things, even when she has her 1st cold and isn't feeling her best...
