Standing Up = Boo Boos

I meant to blog about this a few weeks ago ~ Harper has been pulling herself up onto furniture/toys for a few weeks now! Within a week of her learning how to crawl, she started to do this - and she is starting to 'cruise' around the furniture now too! I think we may have our hands full in a few months!!!
This new stage of her life has been bitter-sweet. I am so excited for her, but it is also VERY difficult to do anything that requires her to stay still. This includes: drinking her bottle, changing clothes/diaper, taking a bath, going to bed!!!! She is SO full of life that she cannot sit still to do any of these things anymore. Harper used to love taking baths - but now we are in and out in less than 5 minutes because she tries crawling out of the tub! She hates to lay down to drink her bottle (which often doesn't get drank anymore!), and laying down for naps/bed can be a nightmare at times! She stands at the end of her crib (closest to the door) and screams and screams and screams - sometimes she is half sleeping but she just won't lay down - grrrr! But like I said, I love this new stage of life - it is so fun to watch her learn new things!
Along with standing up, comes falling down! She does pretty well most of the time - except when she loses her balance and brings the bar stool down with her!!! Oops - her first boo boo :(

Big Girl!

This is why she falls - only hanging on with one hand - too busy watching Wheel of Fortune - seriously!

First boo boo

Day 3 - I swear we don't beat her!
