8 months

Elizabeth is 8 months today! Boy it has flown by...yes...I know...there is still more to come. She is doing quite well these days. Moving around more and more. Just today she got from our living room into the office to see Marty. We have a hard time changing her these days too. She is one wiggly little girl. We have to distract her with a toy for us to change her pants or else she tries to turn over and sit up. If she is determined, she will cry and scream and make you feel bad for not letting her sit up. We only get a minute or so before she realizes that we are tricking her with a toy, so we have to move fast.

It's been a while since I've posted anything, because last week we got our carpet cleaned. Marty won a drawing at a Health Fair that he attended. I was really excited about getting our carpets cleaned and then realized what kind of work had to be put into it for this to happen. We had to have all our furniture moved and out of the way before they came. So...for those who haven't seen our home, here is a picture of it.

We also went camping with Elizabeth for the first time this weekend. We went to Loon Lake with some friends of ours Stephanie and Jason. Loon Lake is 15 miles outside of Reedsport, which is on the coast. Besides all the noise from the other campers, it was actually pleasant. Marty and Jason went and got some crabbing pots and went crabbing. They caught 4 crabs...not a lot, but we don't think crabbing season really hits until next month. Maybe they will have to try again then.
