Austen is 8 Months Old!

Austen is starting to try crawling...just in the past few days, she has started "army crawling" to get where she wants to go. She also has taken a few crawling "steps" and is on her way to crawling on her hands and knees. Life is about to get a bit more hectic! Even so, it's so much fun to see Austen hitting this new stage (although, I have to admit it's also a bit sad because she's growing up so fast!) and getting closer to keeping up with her big sister which she wants to do so bad!
She also has a tooth! The bottom right one cut through about a week ago, and the left is right behind it. Another exciting milestone, but we'll miss the gummy smile!
Obviously, Austen loves to eat. Her favorites are pears, sweet potatoes, and squash (well, in my opinion :)). She also has loved bananas, but we have discovered that they cause some tummy trouble, so she's banned from those for now.
She has also started to clap, and we think wave - so cute. :)
