Gatlin Brothers Concert in Kentucky

This past weekend, we loaded up the car and drove to Kentucky to see the Gatlin Brothers in concert.  Eli brought her friend Verena and Bossy watched the boys.  Harper was so excited to see Paw Paw on stage.   
Full car!
Harper and Pawpaw

She was so good. The show was 2 hours and Haper stayed quite and in her seat 95% of the time. 
I loved watching her wave and say "Hi, Pawpaw" after every song!
I am so glad I am able to share these things with Josh and Harper.  This was so much of my life growing up, it is exciting they get to experience it too!

This past month

What a fun month! Gatlin and Houston are growing and developing their little personalities more and more.  Harper is becoming very independent, in a good way.  She is starting to dress herself, doesn't tell us she needs to "go potty", she just goes on her own, and she is very helpful with her brothers.  Here are some pictures to sum up our last month! 
Harper started in the Early Preschool (B) Classroom for 3 year olds. 

My growing boys!
working hard!
I was fixing dinner and Harper said, "Mommy, come look at buddy". 
She is so thoughtful, giving him her crown! :)
Anyone see Harper? I love that if her head is covered, she thinks she is hiding.
She sure does love her brothers! They love her too.
We celebrated Miles' birthday party.  Mason and Harper are double trouble!


This is what happens when a pink dog tries the slip'n'slide.
While Harper and I played, The boys had a snack!
