I'm sure I'll say this every month… but this month has been my favorite! Your personality is blooming so much everyday. I swear every time I come to get you out of your crib, you are a completely different girl! Constantly growing, smiling, reaching, standing, jumping, giggling, looking…everything. You don't stop moving!
