Happy Hump Day!

Two updates that I’m not sure I’ve mentioned…

• HG is now standing up in her bed. I about died the first time that I walked in and saw her little head peeping over the top. She also has started kicking the mattress in her bed in the mornings, if she’s too lazy to sit or stand up. We can hear it all the way downstairs in our bedroom!
• She had her first flirting experience at the doctor’s last week. A cute little boy came over to her and just stood there smiling. He then looked at his mom and said, “She’s pretty!” Oh lordy, does it really start this young?!

I’m realizing that spring is around the corner and we still have a ton of adorable winter outfits in her closet, so Helen Grace was all dressed up for FTM this morning. We had a GREAT time catching up with all our friends, and she and I had a fun afternoon running errands together. Helen Grace was a big hit all over town- jeweler, hair dresser, Courtyard, etc.! We had a great coupon at Babies R Us, so I went ahead and bought her a big girl car seat for when she’s ready to turn around and face forward. It seems huge compared to her infant carrier! Also, she now has a pair of big girl sandals. She was too hot today in long sleeves, socks, and shoes. She enjoys wiggling her toes! Then we met Billy, Sarah, CB, and Emily for dinner at Newk’s to finish off a great day.

Helen Grace’s first bite of a Rice Krispie Treat She was sharing it with Uncle CB But then Uncle CB got a much bigger bite than she did, and she tried to steal his!
