I can hardly believe it's only two and a half months until my baby's first birthday! Holly is getting so big and grown up. I'm not sure what happened or when!

These days Holly is scootching around like crazy, utilizing not only her arms, but also her knees and toes. Her first tooth finally came in yesterday. It's been a long time coming - 4 months of teething. And the second bottom tooth has yet to come in. Holly can pull herself up onto her knees and she can pull herself up to standing in her crib. Eek! She can sit up all by herself whether by pushing herself up with her arms when on her tummy or doing a hardcore sit up and sitting up from lying flat on her back. Holly has some serious ab power. She's become super cuddly and is a major Mommy's girl. She loves to lay her head on my shoulder and snuggle. Somedays Holly thinks she's too grown up for naps. But that's only because she wants to hang out with Conor and me all the time. And we just love her!
