Little things about Harlow.....
-turned into a non-napping baby! if she's being held, she'll nap 30 minutes, and if you get her in the swing at just the right moment, tired but not crabby tired, she'll nap for an hour or so
-has rosy red cheeks most of the time
-when she's drinking a bottle, she plays with it, pulls it in and out, its quite annoying
-she's the snoopiest baby ever! always looking around to see what everyone is doing
-started eating cereal and likes it
-we switched formula to the kind she'll eat at daycare, she transitioned fine
-doesn't laugh very often, but always at her brothers when they cry!
-will sit in her jumpie or exersaucer for awhile, not jumping or walking
-drools, drools, drools!!!
-spits up quite a bit
-she's an even bigger mama's baby than she was last month
-Paxton calls her "Sister" but Hudson calls her Harlow
-a good car rider as long as we're driving
-really likes stroller rides
-getting better at grasping toys but still not great
-wakes up in the morning happy
-tries rolling around when getting her diaper changed
-loves being naked
-slowly but surely growing more hair, its fuzzy on top
-wears a headband just fine, never tries to take them off
-loves her do-do (pacifier)
-she found her toes and loves grabbing them, not to her mouth yet though, there's no room since her fists are constantly in it!
-is still a rock star at sleeping at nighttime, always falls asleep on her own and has been for months, still swaddled
-still not a big fan of daddy but she's getting there
