Sitting Pretty

She almost has it. Sitting that is. Until she throws herself backwards. She also has a hard time keeping her legs still- lots of kicking and shuffling, trying to kick off her socks or shoes or trying to lick her toes. She does think she is pretty big stuff when she finds herself sitting by herself, which usually leads to waving her arms and kicking her feet and then falling over. She is not deterred though. She just rolls over and tries to pull herself back to sitting, or finds a toy and starts playing.

She is moving backwards all the time. I keep finding her halfway under things- the dining room table, the coffee table, the tv stand. She just gets there and stops and waits for someone to rescue her.

Harper is also starting to sleep more and more in the big crib in Lucy's room. We are still trying to figure out schedules, etc and Lucy is a little too excited about her being in her room (she's thinking sleepover, I'm just thinking SLEEP!)

Lucy thinks she is the mom. I ask her a million times a day "who's the momma?" She wants to wipe Harper's nose, make her food, change her diaper, give her toys, take her shoes off, etc. It could be helpful if I wasn't afraid of her loving her to death.

And Harper's "mamamama" is the word of the day. Love it.
