My little Dancing Monkey :)

I cannot believe Reese is only 7 months old and is ALL OVER the house! She started scooting around in her 5th month and now 2 months later is crawling, climbing stairs, walking along furniture and walls and is into EVERYTHING! I have to try to keep up with her and make sure she is not going to hurt herself. She climbed the entire flight of stairs a couple weeks ago...and she didn't even seem tired! She got to the top and immediately took off into the room of her choice. Crazy girl! Reese just LOVES to get around and explore. I do love how she is so good at playing and entertaining herself. I mean, she does want to be around me and cries if she is left alone for a while (which I can't do anymore since she is so mobile), but she can play by herself a lot longer than Emma ever would.

Reese also loves Emma. She laughs at her and follows her around. She wants to be in her wake and follow what she is doing. I love seeing them together and Emma is really good with her too. Emma is a good big sister and helps show Reese the course. Sometimes I catch Emma trying to be the mom already though. It can be pretty funny. Reese will start chewing on a shoe and Emma runs over there saying,  "eeeww Reese! Eeeeewww!! Yucky! Put that down!" Or "Reese, that's my toy, don't touch!" And it's funny how Emma is all of a sudden so interested in toys that she hasn't touched in over a year :).

Another thing I LOVE about Reese is her smooth dance moves! It started in her high chair where she would start wiggling around when I was trying to feed her and it was so cute but at the same time made it hard to get the food in her mouth! Then she started doing it while sitting on the ground. Now whenever she hears music, she just wiggles her little body all around and it is SOOOOO cute! She can really get her dance on! I took her shopping today and she heard music over the intercom and she immediately started dancing in the cart! Oh, cute girl!

Emma is also a HUGE trooper as we try to get Reese to sleep all the way through the night. We tried having them share a room however at the same time we were trying to get Reese to sleep through the night....it didn't work. So now we may try again since...Reese sleeps 11-12 hours straight now! Hope we can keep it up!!!! (Please, please, please!) She has slept through the night for almost a week now!!!

My cute girls! Oh, I love them! And it's much easier to love them when I've gotten a full nights sleep :).
