Dyllan is 8 months old now. Time flies when you're whimsically doddling balloons (that would be a pretty sweet past time to have wouldn't it? pretty sweet, or eventually, a bit boring .... "What do you like to do in your free time?" ... "Well, army crawl, bobb my head lots, and oh yeah - whimsically doddle balloons ... Lots of that").
She is still pretty chill, but shows us plenty of personality too, with a variety of growls, squeaks, squeals, and other baby sounds. Any time we say babababa (with a certain rhythm) she shakes her head back & forth while smiling, egging us on for more smiles & bababababas. Dyllan's skill resume now includes:
army crawling ... 1st of March-present
sitting up ... late February/Mama's birthday to present
eating pinches of select table foods, with her newest asset: 2 bottom teeth ... 1st of March to present
drinking water (sparingly, for those in a tizzy) from a sippy cup ... mid-March to present
in training: currently perfecting the skill of sitting herself up
Fancy this: her weakest point is also her strongest point: She's not much for baby foods & bottles/formula, and she has turned that into an accelerated eating pace. She's on track to be sipping tea (herbal) from porcelain with her pinky finger daintily pointing in the air by 12 months. Like a Men's Wearhouse suit, I guarantee it.
Balloon complements of Chick-fil-a. It was so perfect with her outfit, I had to slap (gently) a headband on her, throw my white backdrop up & snap a few photos.

I love these photos, Breanne! You're welcome to take beautifully composed pictures of my little girl whenever you want. (wink, wink!) ((Not so subtle am I.)) I'm pretty much in love with lil' darlin Dyllan too. She makes me happy!
These are so cute. Pinkies up!
darling in deed!
Like I said before, I really love those pictures and I really love that little happy girl of yours.

I'm glad you clarified with the (gentle) slapping of the headband, otherwise I'd assume you did it really brutally. :)
I love how you go off on explanatory tangents. (first paragraph)
nice balloon pics. that was smart to tie it on her!
Cute! I like the balloon too. It is very whimsy!
Those are really cute pictures! Look like they belong in a magazine.
Just wanted to say congrats on your second daughter. Had no idea until I saw your blog. I just had a daughter in Dec! So exciting after my two boys. Love the name and she is beautiful.
Deanna (Jana's friend that won the free closet, I am loving it and using every bit of it for Makena!)
