Twinkly

Harper is starting to sing Twinkly Twinkle Little Star with us when we sing it to her. At first you can't really tell what she is saying and then there it is- the tune of the song and little words that sound like "Dindle, Dindle..... ar". It's a start and it is super cute, especially since it is mostly sung when she is getting ready to sleep, in a tiny sweet little voice.
She is completely loving "Itsy Bitsy Spider", too. She knows the hand motions and tries to block the spider from crawling her leg, then she turns her hand on you and tries to crawl up your neck.
She is getting so big and is trying to let go to walk, it won't be long now. She walks behind her "mail cart" up and down the street and can cruise from furniture to furniture. She is also trying to get to standing from sitting, in the middle of the floor without assistance. She isn't getting much farther than one leg up with that one, but at least she is trying.
She, indeed, is our little star! And that's something to sing about.
