8 months old!

Happy 8 months old Taylor bear!! We love you so much and are so glad you are apart of our life!!

I can't stop taking picture of this cute little girl. She is so smiley and happy, most of the time. She has been such a blessing in our life and we love her to pieces. Jordan LOVES her little sister and acts like a little mommy herself. Sometimes she tries to pick her up and carry her places and I freak out a little but I know that she would never mean to hurt her.

I took her into the DR today because I thought she might have an ear infection. She doesn't have an ear infection, she is working on 3 teeth coming in. At the DR they weighed her and she weighed 18lbs. That is a big girl!

Last week I got her tongue clipped. Nursing had become such a painful event that every time she would latch on I thought I was going to either throw up or pass out. Not because she was biting me but because her little teeth were just digging into me. She could not touch her tongue to the roof of her mouth and when she would nurse it would be with her gums and not her tongue. I thought maybe she would grow out of being tongue tied or that it wasn't that bad, but I couldn't take it any longer so we got it done. It was a simple procedure that took about 2 minutes. They numbed the little skin under her tongue with q-tips, it was pretty strong stuff the DR said that it is the same stuff they use for sutures. Then the DR took the little scissors and cut. There was only a drop of blood and that was it. My mom came with me and she held her. The worse part was she was crying because she didn't want to be held down. I should have gotten the procedure done when she was smaller but honestly I just never got around to doing it. So to anyone who's baby is tongue tied get it clipped, it was no big deal and she was completely fine afterwards and wasn't in any pain. Now nursing is wonderful, I feel no pain at all, which is so great. The DR said that she might be to old to learn how to nurse differently but I think she likes it a lot better too. She loves her new tongue and how mobile it can be!
