The Big 10

I want to remember Harry's tricks and personality while hitting the big 10! All of our friends we spend time with label Harry as such a good natured baby, and I will have to agree! He is very quick to smile at anyone and does very well exploring on his own! I sometimes reply by telling them that he is the most high-maintanced in his day care class. The other 5 babies are extremely well behaved, Harry on the other hand is good, but gets into a lot more mischief! I have mentioned before his ability to "help" everyone out! He says dadadada and mamamama quite often, but of course does not know what it means! He has had an on going ear infection for over a month! We are on the 3rd differen antibiotic and exploring herbal remedies at this time. We have a few more options that we are not ready to explore just yet, but this worries me about his verbal advancement. I guess being a Reading Specialist, we were taught that ear infections can be the cause of children being slow readers etc... If you know any herbal rememedies besidesZylitol Sweetner(yes we put sweetner on all his food); let us know.
He can put on a show, and knows it! If he does something that gets laugh, there is a good chance he will do it again! He will dance almost any time music comes on or cheer the "Go Harry Go Harry" song! He has great rhythm, who knows where he got that from! He is very silly too, he loves to give silly grins and receive them as well! Daddy Chad is by far the most silly playmate Harry has, and of course Chad gets a great amount of smiles when he comes into the room!
He is not afraid to let you know when he is not happy, a few things that get him out of a bad mood are going outside, singing in his ear, bouncing up and down, new toy, Goldfish, new surroundings or a new smiling face!

Harry is very good on the go! He does great at restaurants! He has become a great kisser! He is so cuddly these days! He gives tight hugs and will open his mouth often to give you a big wet one on your cheek, he hasn't advanced to pucker up!. The best are when you don't expect em'. There is a girl in the 2 year old class, and she goes to our church, Blair, who he adores and the rumor is he steals lots of kisses from her! Like all babies he is in aw of the older ones, it is a good thing all of his close pals are older than him, he is learning to fend for himself! He is such a great baby, Chad and I were discussing last night how much joy he brings our home! We feel so blessed to have him around, it is very humbling to feel so much love for something so small!
