Harriet—3 months.

June 19, 2013

Oh the sweetness of this little girl!  She is so well-natured and easy—such a blessing!

Is it just us, or is she really cute?  And so happy!

My grandma (my dad’s mother, who passed away a few years ago) made this dress for me when I was a baby.  Elna also wore this dress when she was about Harriet’s age—here is a picture of each of us wearing the dress:

At 3 months, Harriet:

--is an absolute delight!  She is happy almost always if she is awake.  She’s awake a lot, so she is happy even when she is tired.  She smiles all of the time and I love it when she smiles when she catches me looking at her. 

--has a cute little belly laugh and is very easily humored. 

--coos back as soon as we say anything to her.  We can have long conversations like this—love talking to her!

--is still not an awesome sleeper, but it’s been really hot here and we don’t have AC, so who can blame her?  She wakes up a few times during the night still, but we can usually get her to go back to sleep the first time she wakes up, so that I only feed her once a night.  It could be worse, but I wish it were a little better.

--has great head control and can push her head up high when laying on her stomach.

--rolls with the punches—what a nice way to be!  I could learn a thing or two from her! :)

We are absolutely crazy about her!
