Melting hearts since SeptEMBER of 2017. See what I did there.
So wrote Audrey Roloff in a very cute opening to her latest Instagram post, which was centered entirely on daughter Ember Jean.
And for good reason: Ember is now 8 months old!
As she has done nearly every month around this time since her child entered the world, Audrey updated fans on Ember’s status, sharing a number of new (and PRECIOUS!) photos, while also giving us an idea of what the infant has been up to.
The answer? A whole lot!
Scroll down for more:
She’s on the Move! “These photos are getting harder and harder to take! Our girlsie is getting more and more mobile,” wrote Audrey about her eight-month old, who is apparently crawling all around.
Look Out, Kitty! “She still loves to chase Pine,” continued Audrey, referencing the cat she shares with husband Jeremy and who Little People, Big World fans have gotten to know well.
Aloha! Ember “took her first flight with mom and Dad to Hawai,” Audrey wrote, including with her update the cute photo above. It features Mommy and Daughter in this tropical locale.
Back It Up? No thanks! Audrey explains that Ember “doesn’t like being on her back,” which is very normal for a girl her age.
What Does She Love, Though? She “loves splashing in the bath (and ocean),” says Audrey. We wonder if they’ve considered putting Ember in a swim class just yet. Maybe she’s a bit young, though.
Hooray for Ember! She “attended her first Luau” and has “learned to clap,” Audrey continued.
Now Ear This! Ember has “toughed out some ear infections,” says her mother. That really is too bad. We know how hard it is for parents to see their children suffer through any sort of illness like this.
What Else?!? Ember is “cutting her top teeth” and “can open drawers and climb stairs,” says Audrey. Sounds like some major baby-proofing is in order!
The Great Outdoors The little one “has a great time picking grass [and] loves her new swing,” gushes Audrey, implying that the family spends a lot of time outside in Oregon.
Most Importantly? Ember “fills our heart with oodles of laughter and joy every day,” says Audrey simply. And that’s what parenthood is all about, right?
At 7 Months It’s always fun to take a look back and see how far Ember has come. Do you see a difference in her between now and her seven-month photo?
At 5 Months How about if we go back three months? It’s easier to see the progress here, isn’t it?
At 4 Months We can keep going! Here she is at four months old.
At 3 Months And at three months old! Just look at that hat!
At 2 Months Rocking different head gear, here is a look at Ember back in November of 2017.
And at 1 Month! Oh my goodness! Now you can see it, right? She’s gone from a cute baby to her very own little person!
