Oh this girl. I know I am going to sound like a broken record, because I just read what I wrote about Harriet at two weeks and at six weeks and every other time I have mentioned her...but this girl! She is a complete joy. She is content and sweet and gives her smiles so, so generously. There will be entire wake/sleep cycles where she will lay happily on her back under her jungle gym, fall asleep on her own and only whimper when she wakes up and wants to eat. I'm waiting for her to become demanding, but so far our little Harriet is absolutely chill. Our most common refrain around here is either Rory or I saying when she does cry out, "oh that's right...we have a third kid."
She is now four months. I told my mom this and she said, "that's my absolute favorite baby age!" And I can see why. She gabs all day with me, lights up like a sunbeam when I walk into the room, and has discovered the best toy ever: her feet. She rolls over, but ends up a bit frustrated when she has ended up on her belly again. Sometimes she'll roll back over to her back, but most of the time she cries out for assistance.
She is quite popular in the mornings. Rory wants a good, long snuggle with her first thing. When Elsie wakes up and comes down stairs, it would seem she has a magnetic pull right towards Hattie and they spend a good part of the morning chit chatting with each other. And then Ivar comes down and does the same. Harriet is already in 9 month clothes, filling them completely with her length. And lately she has been hanging out in her high chair, all propped with with blankets, sitting up and very proud to be apart of meal times. She is absolutely our joy and we love her like crazy.
