Ansley Harper: 8 Months


Ansley Harper you are 8 months old today!  You are such an amazing little miracle and we love you more than words can even describe!  You are a blessing and a dream come true!  Here are a few of the happenings around here....

*You have 2 teeth poking through...oh, it's so adorable!

*You like to hum with daddy when he sings the abc's to you.  It's so funny...he starts and you join in!

*You are everywhere these days!  You aren't yet crawling, but somehow you manage to get around, whether it's rolling or scooting.

*Your favorite toy is a measuring cup...hopefully you will love to cook one day like your Uncle Kyle!

*Daddy has started a habit of giving you water through a straw, so every time we are out...you reach for the closest glass.  We have recently started giving you a sippy cup with water and you gulp it down!

*You are now a maniac on the changing table!

*You still aren't loving your green veggies, but with a little applesauce we can sometimes get them down.  You love applesauce, sweet potatoes, bananas, rice, and milk!

*You are still nursing, but we've been giving you some formula at night because you are one hungry little girl!

*At night, you love to snuggle with Dawson (your black dog), Lizzie (monkey), and Elroy (elephant).  That's your night crew.

*You are probably around 20 lbs and still all legs and cheeks!

*We celebrated Pappaw's birthday (February 17th) this month at Red Lobster and it's confirmed...you love his curly hair!

*We've realized you get real excited around dogs (Alleigh, Nelly, and Marley) and want to play with them.

*You love it when mommy dances!

*Sitting up is now a breeze...until you try to get to your tummy.  We've had a few face-plants!

*You love your little cousin, Jansen. 

*Mrs. Cathy (your Monday babysitter) said to me this week "she's the smartest little baby I know...that I haven't given birth to".  She said this with no hesistation, no laughing.  I was of course, laughing.  I love her because she's so funny and she loves you!

*Mimi watches you on Wednesday and Thursday during the week and she always tries to take you home with her!  For good.  Like kidnap.

You attended Tanette's baby shower that mommy hosted.  They couldn't get over those chubby little cheeks!
