Snowy Days and Checkups!

Last year when it snowed Harper was too young to play in it. This year we had the chance to walk in the snow and let her play in it for a short time. I was cold and ready to go in fast, but Harper had to walk in her dad's footprints. How fun!
Harper had her 1 year checkup with Dr. Lestz and she is happy and healthy. She is 24 pounds and 32.25 inches. Still a very tall girl! The appointment went well and Harper enjoyed it- up until the shots... After the inital shock of the shots she was back to her happy self. Harper is beginning to really walk now, laughing alot, loves to watch Jack's Music Show, and enjoys playing at school. Her favorite thing to do is read (by herself of course), play with Jackson, and organize and re-organize her toys by her standards. She is now riding big girl style in the car because her legs are so long- facing backwards was uncomfortable. Today she loved getting to ride facing forwards. She laughed the whole time and talked to us. I think she was telling us thank you! hehe

Look Whoooo's 1!

Harper's birthday party was a blast! There were so many family and friends there and the kids had fun playing together. Thanks to all who attended!
Brenda, the same lady who did our wedding cakes did Harper's cake and her smash cake. We even had the same flavor as our wedding cake! Yummy!
Harper enjoyed everyone singing to her and especially enjoyed eating her cake!
After cake Harper opened presents, and opened presents, and still opened more presents... She received so many great things. Since her birthday is so close to Christmas we were amazed to see she didn't get anything she already had! Wow!

Happy Birthday Harper! We thank God every day for giving us such a great gift. This past year has changed our family forever and we can't wait for the days to come.
 Love you babygirl!

Harper's 1st Birthday

Harper turned one today and we gave her a baby doll. Her class at school made her a crown to wear (and she loved it), we ate dinner, and then H ate a few bites of a cupcake. She loved the icing. Harper was very tired today from playing and learning in her new big girl class- but still managed to get out a few smiles tonight. Saturday is her party and it's going to be so fun!


First Christmas and New Year's Eve

Christmas was so fun this year because Santa came to our house and brought Harper so many wonderful presents. There was so much joy and we had fun taking H to CoCo and Granddad's house, Nana and Pop's house, and GiGi came to our house! There were so many pictures that I just choose just a few to put on the blog and the rest we are printing out.
Happy Birthday Jesus!


New Year's Eve pics- The babies partied early and then we did fondue!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Christmas Program

Harper's preschool put on a Christmas Program and it was so fun to see all the classes perform. Even her teachers were singing and dancing to Frosty. 
Harper wouldn't wear her Frosty hat so it was taped behind her in the stroller. That's her BFF Cohen next to her and Mrs. Rose behind them.
We were so proud of all of kiddos!
