Arden is my little over-achiever. She was crawling before six months, pulling up before 7 months and just wants to walk walk walk. She sees her big brother running circles around the living room and starts cracking up - I mean doubled over hysterical giggling. And then Sawyer starts cracking up and soon we are all laughing. Sawyer says "come here, come here" and holds out his hands to her encouraging her to walk over to him. I think he can't wait until she's racing circles with him, and I doubt it will be long. She's babbling up a storm and says mama and dada to nobody in particular. We're still nursing and haven't really started solid foods. No teeth yet. She hates all baby cereal and pureed food but will gum a frozen bagel like its going out of style. Just what I need. Another picky eater. When she's unhappy or wants to be held, she's got a screech that will curdle your blood. But she can also squeal in delight - something I never really heard from Sawyer - and all I can think is that she's SUCH A GIRL. The thing that surprises me most is how much the kids interact with each other already. I knew it would happen, but I just didn't realize that they would be so close so soon. They share and fight over toys (and Arden gets her way just as much as Sawyer - she will go after whatever he has) and look for each other whenever one is missing from the room. On the stats front, Arden is still short (35th) and fat (60th). But with her fuzzy head, she pulls the look off well.
