Bella is 8 Months!!!

Where did the time go? I feel so bad, I haven't taken pics of Bella in quite some time. And all of my family and friends are getting on my case about the latest Bella pics. She use to get a photo shoot every week. So, yesterday I really wanted to see what she looked like in the bathing suit her Grandma Preziose brought back to her from Hawaii. It's a bit snug, but boy does she look cute in it. Well, this is my little bathing beauty!
It wasn't long before she was due for yet another bottle and some mixed berries. She's waiting like a patient little girl. (looks are deceiving)
If you look closely, you can see the remnants of the berries around her lips. It was so good, she had to suck the berries off of her fingers. She's serious about her food!She usually likes when I hold her bottle for her. But, she surprised me by trying it on her own. Not quite her mouth.She has the hang of it now, and boy was she proud of herself. Bella shared her high chair with Lola. She loves her doggies.

By the way...Bella is saying "Mama" now. I'm so proud...it was her first word. :-)
