more hair is coming in on the back of her head but still not bow-worthy...someday

Tonight when I was bathing Harper we were discussing animal sounds. I asked her what sound Grandy made? She looked around for a few seconds, then shyly smiled, coughed loudly and then we both started giggling!
I do believe she's developing quite a sense of humor. BTW, Grandy loved hearing all about that story!
