Harrison Update



Harrison really can cheese it up now for the camera. It's been difficult to get a shot of his beautiful charming smile because he is always saying cheese and giving us his biggest silliest smile. Here are some quick updates on Harrison. He can somewhat converse with us now. It's amazing and quite charming. Between Matt and myself, I seem to be the better translator when we don't understand what he is saying. He is remembering things from several days back and recalls information accurately which is a fun new development. It's like he's a real person. He does not care about pooping or peeing in his pants. He loves his little brother, Henry. He likes to pat him on the head and give him little kisses. Harrison's eyelashes seem extra beautiful and long lately. His hair is still crazy. So thin and so straight. Very hard for the professionals to cut. Harrison still likes to get his way and will sometimes successfully work his magic on us. He repeats himself until you want to scream and throw yourself through the window (Daddy, Daddy, Daddy....cracker, cracker, cracker - actually it sounds more like cocker, cocker, cocker). I think that's normal for his age, but wow is it annoying. He loves reading books. Harrison is a dunce when it comes to his colors, but he is starting to recognize his letters and counts fairly well (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 14 - close enough). He points out the letter H everywhere and shouts, "Harrison!". Cute. I love his little voice when he talks softly and sweetly. Harrison is loving, charming, wild, athletic, stubborn, affectionate, and curious. Harrison is such a joy to be with right now. I love him so much.
