I really just want to gush about Harlee. She is developing so much. She is almost rolling over. And she is not only sitting on her own, but she can bend forward to reach for something and bring herself back up. She is a doll! She has her moments for sure and I am still trying to learn how to calm my own nerves to help calm her, but she usually only gets going if something is wrong. She talks a lot. Well, vocalize is maybe a better word. And at first she loved yelling. She thinks it is really cool to hear her own voice, but lately she has been doing this whisper thing. It is adorable. Also, she reaches for everything, especially if you don't want her to have it. But it is so cute. If we are holding it she wants it, if it has colors, she wants it, if it makes noise, she wants it. And, the best of all, she reaches for me if she wants me. How cute!
One of my very favorite things is when she takes her pacifier when she is sleeping. I can't really explain it. She's usually just so INTENSE with everything and has so much energy whatever she is doing, but when she's sleeping she will just open her little mouth ever so gently and take her pacer(that's what we call it), and kind of gum it for a second then it's back to dream world. I know it sounds weird, you'd just have to see it.
Oh! and eating is crazy! She loves her food and let's you know it. If you aren't fast enough with her cereal she WILL yell at you. She is very noisy but mostly with sounds of enjoyment. She mmm's everything. Except the green beans she tries tonight. She wasn't sure about them. They slowed her down a bit.
I also love it when I can get her to settle down when no one else can. And I love how she just cuddles her little head up under my chin(she's done that from day one,) and falls asleep with her little arms wrapped around me. She laughs with us, holds us, kisses us. Actually we do most of the kissing but it's so hard not to kiss her, but she's catching on. She is so precious and I can't wait to see what the future holds for her. I can see so much potential in her. I love her so much!
For those of you still reading, thanks. :) Thanks for letting me brag about her for a bit. It's something a mommy needs to do every so often I think.

It's hard not to brag when it comes to your babies. Every single on of them is so unique and wonderful. I have a friend who wrote this in her blog and I thought it was very poignant..."doesn't every mother think her children are the most stunning little creations ever?" It's so true. Every little hiccup, babble, and coo.
You should brag - she is wonderful, we miss her.
