Dear Harper,
You are 11 months old!!! You are really on the move these days! You LOVE pulling up on any and everything. every morning I find you standing up in your crib with a sweet smile on your face. You are cruising around a bit, but you mainly like holding one of my fingers in each hand and walking around. Something that I want to remember about you (and I am hoping we will look back and laugh in a few years or hopefully months) – you have stopped rolling. You have zero interest in rolling from your back to your tummy. I mentioned it to your doctor this month and he isn’t concerned. But, he admitted it is an interesting quirk. :) Your favorite room is the playroom! You crawl in there as quickly as you can to start playing with all of the toys. We are in major need of some girly toys for you, but for now you are just fine with your brother’s cars and dinosaurs. You also (much to my chagrin) climbed up the stairs this month (with your daddy very close behind you). You were very proud of yourself.
You are clapping (which Hudson loves), waving hi and bye, playing peek-a-boo and blowing kisses. You also love to give kisses. And one of the funniest things you do – you actually blow into the kleenex when I ask you to blow your nose! Cracks me up. You still have the same six words – we haven’t added any new ones yet.
Your sleep was a bit disrupted this past week due to a brutal tummy bug (or molars – still not sure). We are slowly getting back on track though.
Your favorite things right now are your stuffed monkey (you love to rock it…actually you love to rock all of the stuffed animals), to be on the go, your mommy, your daddy and of course your big brother. Speaking of Hud – now that you are too big for him to hold every morning :(…he likes to start his day off hugging you and giving you kisses. And high talking you (which is hilarious) and telling you how cute you are. He introduces you to people as his best friend. I pray that you two always have a sweet, strong relationship.
Harper Joy – you are such a light in our lives. We love you so much and can’t wait to celebrate your FIRST birthday next month!
Love,
Mommy
