Baby Love

People keep saying Harrison looks like me! With the sunglasses on, I finally see the resemblance :)

We had a brief rain shower this morning and as sunny as it was, I knew there would be a rainbow outside and there was! So this was Harrison's first rainbow. And we saw a helicopter which he thought was awesome.

This week Harrison has been pulling his big toe toward his mouth and saying "bite it". Also saying "smell" a lot for candles, food, and his scratch and sniff book. I need more of those! We keep reading the Christmas one. He says "bug" when we see one land on the window. He said "manana" for banana at breakfast yesterday. And he says "Ka-Ka" for cracker. He just keeps amazing us with not only the words he says but how much he understands of what we say! We have a book called 100 first words and he is getting really good about pointing to the picture of a word when we say it. Now if I could just get him to understand "Don't throw your food" and "Don't bite!". Because the only response I get is laughter. He chunked his sippy cup the other day and unfortunately it hit Adam right under the eye, so everyone at Adam's work probably thinks he comes from an abusive home!

He had a playdate with Parker yesterday which was very exciting for him. I think he is in baby love. Before she came over, he kept saying "Parka", which might be the cutest thing I have ever heard in my life. Then he started saying "Parka Birthday". Could he even possibly remember her from his party? I don't know, but he was saying Parka Birthday as clear as can be. Parker's daddy told me at his party that he said Parker, but I didn't believe it til I heard it myself! They both have the same blonde hair (about the same length since Harrison needs a haircut) and big blue eyes. They just looked adorable together. Neither one of them shares too well, but I don't think they are supposed to at this age. At one point, Parker gave him a little "love push" away from a toy she was playing with and Harrison looked at me and his lip started to stick out in slow motion and quiver and he was fighting back the tears, but he got over it pretty quick because last night, he was saying "Parka" and then making kissy faces. Such a sweety!

I made the mistake of telling him it was possible that there were mountain lions living behind our house in the greenbelt. So now every morning at breakfast, he points out the window and roars. Adam got mad at me for telling him this but a) it IS possible and b) he doesn't know lions are scary and c) its just so darn cute!

He woke up last night around 2 needing his mama. Adam finally brought him to me and he snuggled up to me in bed for awhile. I have no problem giving the boy what he needs!

OH! His crib FINALLY came. Of course they assembled it wrong. Adam had to completely take it apart and put it back together. But I think the restoration hardware nightmare is finally over. I think it was 3 months of nonsense with them?! But hopefully since this is a convertible crib, he will have it for many years to come. It really is beautiful. Thanks Adam for putting it together!!! Harrison and I can't wait to spoil him on Father's Day this weekend! We are going to a winery outside of Lago Vista for a picnic with hamburgers, live music, fishing, and well hopefully wine!!!
