So, I'm a little bugged that Ali has learned to pull herself up onto things now. She isn't even crawling. Well she is almost there but not quite. I still want a baby who wants to sit on my lap and stay there. But I know, they must grow up. She is so excited when she does accomplish the task and proudly smiles and hits her hands on the table or couch! How could I be mad at such a cute face and sweet girl!
