I can't believe Harper is two months old! I feel like I am finally almost...maybe...sort of..getting the hang of this mom business. Harper is an excellent baby. She smiles more than any baby I have ever met at her age and we love it, she is such a happy baby. We love going to church with her because she smiles at literally everyone so it's really hard for anyone around her to concentrate. My favorite thing is getting to watch all the changes she makes and seeing her learn different things. She has started grabbing toys and holding them or shaking them and Preston makes fun of me but I get SO stoked when she does it. She loves her play gym but I'm learning she seems to get bored quickly- after about 10 minutes she is completely over it. She is growing like a weed. She got really tall out of nowhere and now she's our tall, skinny string bean. Her cheeks are on the rise again and they are getting even bigger which I didn't think was possible.
She has been a really good sleeper from day one and only wakes up once between 4:30-5:00 am to eat and then will go back to sleep until around 7 or 8. She is really difficult to go out in public with because she likes to stay wide awake and stare at everything and everyone and then gets really cranky because she refuses to nap until we get home. So that's a real treat.
She is addicted to her binks but only likes the ones from the hospital. Instead of crying to let us know she's hungry she will now shove her whole fist in her mouth. She is starting to discover her feet and will stare at them and wiggle them and then her eyes get really big. We've have also been putting her in front of the mirror to look at herself but instead she just notices us in the mirror and seems really confused by the other small human she sees. Someday she'll realize it's her. She has a really strong neck until we put her in her Bumbo seat and then she decides she has no idea how to hold her head up anymore. That's pretty much what she is up to these days. Preston and I are loving being parents. We both agree that our marriage and friendship has grown so much since having her.
Here's some pictures
Uh... did the photos break? I can't see them on my phone. :-(
