Bye Bye, Baby

Helen's hair has grown long enough for pigtails, and it makes her look so grown up! So now I have two little girls instead of one baby and one toddler. In addition to her new hairdo, Helen has learned all sorts of new things: many, many words; how to throw a tantrum; running; climbing; and how to undress.

Most of the time she's pretty happy. This month has been tough because she's been trying on the "terrible twos" and cutting her two-year molars (at least that's what I assume is causing the excessive drool and grumpiness). Alas, she is still waking up at least once in the middle of the night, and I still indulge her in a bottle of milk and a cuddle.
