Alexis is 8 months old

Alexis has been a joy again this month. She's getting big - real big - and that's because she's eating more and more solid food.  She isn't quite ready for little chunks of food.  We keep offering but she often tries a couple bites and then starts to cough and gag it all back up.  Maybe teeth will help her (at this point she is still toothless).  She's grabbing Cheerios all by herself and sometimes putting them into her mouth.  She tends to forget to release them once they are in her mouth.  We will think she has eaten them all only to find a fist full of slimy cereal.  

She enjoys playing with her toys, being read (and eating) books and talking (lots of ma ma ma ma sounds). She's getting up on her hands and knees and rocking back and fourth but no crawling as of yet.
