Geez...already 8 months old!?!

Gosh- why is this year just flying by?! We cannot believe that our little girl turned 8 months old yesterday. And only 4 more months till she hits the year mark. As usual, we celebrated in true Graeber style with cupcakes and candles for the princess! Grafton continues to bring us so much joy and love- playing with her every night is such a delight and we just laugh and laugh at the things she does. Like tonight- she tried to "escape" from her room again (took off crawling to the door) and had to stop when she got to Tucker (the lab) in the hallway, turned around to look us, then proceeded to giggle and giggle while Tucker's tail whacked in her in the face from wagging it so hard! Obviously, it didn't hurt her- but she just thought it was hilarious! She and Tucker have this bond- she will stare at Tucker and he will start to somewhat growl/howl and she just giggles non-stop! Too funny. A few days ago we were playing with Grafton and she got out her toy phone, pushed it for it to start ringing, then held it up to her ear! Eric and I cracked up- she already knows how to use a phone apparently!! Anyways, as you can see Grafton just lights up our world and we can go on and on talking about her. She is just full of personality, and while it can be exhausting at times I certainly would not have it any other way! Here are a few pictures from the past couple of days.....
