The little one

That's what we often call Harper. We say it so much that Lainey has started calling her that sometimes ("Mom, the little one is crawling up the stars again!"). But she's not so little anymore! She turned 16 months a couple of days ago which is hard to believe. And we think she'll be walking any day now! She actually took a step the other day and yesterday Troy says she took two steps before dropping to her knees. I will miss seeing her walk around on her knees though. It is the funniest thing! 

She has such a funny personality. She is feisty and has a quick temper (so that will be awesome when she hits her terrible twos) but she is also very sweet and snugly. She is always crawling up to me just to wrap herself around my legs for a cuddle. She is also crazy loud. Like, all the time...happy, mad, hungry, excited all earn a shrill ear-piercing screech. We already say we're going to have to keep an eye on this one. She seems like she's going to be fun & social and she already likes to grab any drink she finds and chug it (she'll be a blast in college). Here is a picture Lainey snapped of her sneaking up and drinking Lainey's drink:

She wants to be just like her big sister but I think she enjoys being the baby (Troy thinks that's why she won't walk yet...because she likes being carried! Rotten thing.).

She's pretty stinking cute. :)
