And now, the list of things I want to remember but won't have to since they're documented here:
* She wears size 4 diapers. (It cracks me up how the baby on the package of her diapers is standing up, bent over at the waist preparing to do a forward roll.)
*She wears size 9-12 month clothes. I hope she doesn't outgrow some of her summer clothes before the weather warms up.
*She's a pretty serious baby. She loves to watch and take it all in. No one can make her laugh like her big sister. Sometimes I get onto Reese for getting too rough or intense but Hope under minds me by laughing.
*When she gets excited she pants and sticks her tongue out like a puppy dog.
*When she's hungry she swings her right leg around and around. We call it her Elvis leg.
*She eats four times a day. We'll introduce baby/solid food this month.
*She's in bed by 8:00 and wakes up at 7:00. She takes two good naps a day and sometimes a few more cat naps. Last week we set up the crib and now she sleeps in there.
*It's getting harder to carry her around. Not only does she weigh a lot, but she's getting a lot stronger too. The other day at a birthday party, I thought my arms were going to fall off. :)
* She has pretty much mastered sitting up. She lunges and grabs at everything in sight. Sometimes when she's sitting on the floor she'll fold all the way over with her head touching the ground, stay there for a few seconds and then lift herself back up. Dan doesn't like it when she does that. :)
*Two days ago she rolled over, tummy to back for the very first time. Danny and I both saw her do it and we cheered and cheered.
*When she grabs Dan's face her little arms are just long enough to reach both of his ears.
Congratulations Hope Margaret! How can it be in just six months you've gone from this
