8 months!


 So much has changed with Harper over the past month! She now has two teeth and is officially crawling. She gets quicker and quicker each day. When you walk out of the room she follows right behind you! Just today she started to pull up on things...the coffee table, the fire place, and a chair. It is nerve racking to watch her, but she seems pretty steady on her knees!

This month has been eventful! Between baby showers, Easter, neighborhood parties, a Fredricksburg day trip, museums, play-dates and birthday parties! Each event Harper has been a doll. She is really enjoying being around people. She is always smiling and flirting with strangers...specifically waiters. I think she likes waiters because they move so quickly...which she aspires to do!

Harper continues to love to eat solids foods. Currently she is loving watermelon, sweet potatoes, and bananas. We have started to feed her in her diaper only because she makes SUCH a mess, but she loves it!

This month was the first time Harper has ever been sick. Poor baby had such a high fever we had to call a pediatric urgent care. After a cool bath, Tylenol, and snuggles we were able to get it under control for the evening. When I took her in the next day to her pediatrician he ruled it was just an infection and we had to let it run its course. Poor thing had a fever for three days..then on the third day out popped her first tooth! The second tooth popped up shortly after.
