Harper Ellison : Month 3

Tomorrow, my darling Harper E, you are 4 months old. I need the pause button. Why don't they give us a pause button?!

Your third month of life was full of sooooo much. So much babbling, SO many smiles. Your first really nasty cough, which resulted in you having to wear a nebulizer mask, you weren't a fan AT ALL. You discovered just how powerful your little voice is, always trying to make sure you're being heard by everyone. It's hilarious listening to you just have these really seemingly detailed and in depth "conversations" with yourself. Like you're having loads of intense debates. You've reached a new level of drool. You'd think you'd be all dried up, that in a 24 hour period of time, that you've had to of reached the maximum amount of drool in a human beings life, but then it just keeps coming. You're quite good at making bubbles with all that drool, too. 
You've recently decided that anything and just about everything needs to be in your mouth RIGHT NOW! Your hands, Blankets, ESPECIALLY blankets. You're pretty keen on having a death grip on most objects as well, as a result, I will always remember this month as "Top Knot Month". Because I learned after the first time you grabbed onto my hair and refused to release even just a tiny bit,not to have my hair down. It's pretty funny to watch as other people learn this same little habit of yours. :)
You've been my little makeup assistant, I bring you just about everywhere with me. Photoshoots, Ikea, Visitng Friends, Restaurants, EVVVVERYWHERE. We lucked out with you being such a calm, content baby. We really did. 
I was lucky enough to hear you actually laugh for the first time just the other day, Jillinn and I took you on a 3 hour adventure in Ikea on the 26th, we were in the parking garage and I started to run and push the cart faster, you LOVED it. You were smiling that big, gummy smile of yours and all of a sudden the best sound I've ever heard came out of your mouth, my eyes even got a little teary. 








Every single day i wake up, shocked at the fact that I love you even more than I did the day before. My heart might just explode, from loving you so much, Harper.
