Do you see this baby girl with the determined look on her face? This is bad, very bad. She wasn't suppose to be doing this crawling thing for a long time! She certainly didn't run the request by me because I would have shut it down. Fast. Thankfully she can only crawl backwards right now. But the forward movement is imminent.
This growing up stuff is for the birds, I tell ya.
Oh, and Eliza has gained 5 pounds since the end of June. 5 pounds. I was standing next to a mother the other day holding her almost 8 month old baby boy. I swear, Eliza could have eaten him for dinner. She is huge. And I love it. So, she weighs in at 20 pounds right now. This puts her 11 pounds away from Eve and 6 pounds from Judah. Hmmmm. Eliza may be the baby but she's sure going to give the other two a run for their money!
Eight month pictures coming up on the 24th! I can hardly believe it.

What a cutie! I feel your pain with the crawling - Emma is now standing up! AACK!! That girl can move too - very fast crawler. I can't believe Eliza is almost 8 months! Of course... Emma will be 9 months is less than two weeks. Wow.
Miller is 33 pounds...I bet she is a heavy little toot. But she is so darn cute. Hope all is well and have a great weekend.
She is just adorable (eat-able).
My son's were both big boys. Cameron was born 7lbs, 3oz but he was 20 lbs by 3 months. He made it up to 29 lbs by 14 months, then pretty much stopped - he started walking then. He only gained 2 lbs in the next two years.
Connor was born 10lbs, 3 oz (really - not a typo) and gained about 2 lbs a month. He made it up to 36 lbs by 13 months and started walking. He is now about 43lbs at 33 months.
You get used to it.
look at that chub--you did that! you should be so proud! (especially for bearing out those killer first 6 weeks of nursing.)
I just want to squeeze her! She is too much - too cute, too edible! LOL!
awww!! Kenna's doing the backwards crawl thing too! It's so fun that our girls are only a few days apart!!
Look at those chubby little arms! How cute is she?
Just adorable!
All my babies were chunky monkeys & I loved it!
She's so precious=))
I just love the title of this post ( : I'll echo Alicia in saying 'what a cutie'!
I love chubby babies! My son (almost 1) was 26 1/2lbs. at 9 months. Not sure how much he weighs now, but it much more than that! :) (love the post title btw...!)
Again, can I come over and chew on her a little bit? I LOVE chubby babies, that's how Madalyn was. MM!
she is on the move! she does look very determined!
Will is doing the army crawl now...scooting around. he goes on all fours and just rocks back and forth. it is so cute when they are starting to learn how to crawl.
She is so precious and round, perfection! Love the bow, you are so cute with all your bows Andrea. I bet she and Abigail are about the same size. I tell you what, ever morning when I walk in that girls room, I swear she put on another pound over night. She gets chunkier by the minute:)
Oh I'd love to pick her up kiss her cheeks and squeeze her arms and legs. She is so cute and precious.
Maybe you should get her some silky pants. That'd keep her stationary for a few more minutes. She's so adorable. She can come over and eat my boys (the oldest at almost 11 weighs just 65 pounds LOL) anyday and then I'll hug her and squeeze her and call her George.
Crawling?! Oh my WORD! I feel so old...I only found your blog right after she was born. Where does time go? How can this be?
I better go check on my Crumb Snatchers whereabouts. They're probably in college by now...
OH...NO...haha! And you thought your life was exciting now...!
boy she could take on dash-2 in a little cage match, no problems! for some reason my kiddos were always on the small size... just with really big heads so you couldnt tell!
big or small babies are still so cute.
oh munch munch munch! the cheeks, the legs, the pudge little hands... where to start?! she is sooo stinkin' cute. she just begs to be kissed and squished. in a good way of course. :D
What a DOLL! I want to nibble on her...
I can hardly believe she's almost 8 months old! I can only imagine how you must feel! Time flies doesn't it?
My boys were always big and chubby too- I loved it :)
Andrea, please share with me where you find all of those pretty bows for Eliza. I cant seem to find them anywhere- unless they're the cheesy teensy ones on the elastic "bungee-cord-things" (<---J's description) from Wal-Mart :(
She is much too cute for her own good!! I love the chub! Hannah had about 4 sets of rolls on her thighs before she started walking, and sometimes I kind of miss it :)
Uh oh...is someone trying to chase after her older siblings?
I know what you mean! Lucas is doing this bear crawl thing (just like Kayla did!) and I certainly wasn't ready for him to start that already! Eliza is too sweet! I can't believe she's only 6 lbs from Judah! LOL At 5 months Lucas was 17lbs, so I'm anxious to see what he weighs in at tomorrow for his 6 mth visit. Kayla is only 35 lbs so he'll be catching up to her in no time!
