Happy Friday!

Josh has been out of town all week...can you tell Harper is glad to have him home?
I am too!

Harpers 6 Month Check-Up

On Tuesday (March 26th), Harper had her 6 Month Check-Up.

Since her appointment was at 9:50 (and her father was out of town), I decided to take her to work with me for an hour and a half.

I thought if I could get her to fall asleep in the car, she would stay asleep in my office until we had to go...it was nap time.

Well, I was wrong!  This little thing did not want to sleep. Too many exciting things to see in my office.

Make-shift office bed behind my desk.

For not napping and being a little hungry...she was a trooper at the doctor!

Here are her stats:

3.27.12

Height 27 Inches = 85%

Weight 18 lbs. 6 oz. = 88%

Head 43.2 cm = 70%

This was my first doctors appointment (for Harper) without Josh.

It is not that easy with a squirmy baby...especially one that wants to eat everything insight!

LOVE ME SOME ROLLS!!

Her doctor said all looks good and confirmed our suspicions...

SHE IS TEETHING!

not teeth just yet...but they are on their way.

Sweet Potatoes Take 2

Sweet Potatoes Take 2!

We tried again last night and Harper really started to enjoy them!

YAY!

Sweet Potato Fail

Sunday night, we decided to try out sweet potatoes for the first time.

Harper's diet at this point includes breast milk, formula, rice cereal and oatmeal...all pretty bland compared to Sweet Potatoes.

Here is Harp all ready to try her first veggie!

Below would be the two different videos we took during the process.

After watching this video, it's hard to tell how she feels about sweet potatoes.  This second videos (shorter) really shows you!

We are going to try again tonight. I am sure something with so much flavor has to be a shock to her system!

Hanging At Daycare

I have said it before, but I love that Harper is in a fun and loving home everyday that Josh and I are at work. Here are a few more pictures of Harper with Susie.  There is even one cute picture of the girls with Nanny Katie!

Happy Friday!

I hope this video makes you smile like I do when I see it!

Harper had spit-up all down my shirt when we were in Charleston. I ran to the bathroom and strapped Harper in the changing table and she thought it was hysterical!  She was "planking" and laughing so much.

Finally, I got my phone out to video. Love her little laugh!!

Meeting little Ryan

Last week, I got a special visit from baby Ryan and his mom Tammy.

I was so excited they happened to be in the area.

Here we are...he is 2 weeks old.

Surprise Trip to Charleston

Over the weekend, Mom, Harper, and I surprised Aubrie in Charleston.

About a month ago, we reached out to her hubby, Brandon, and decided to make the trip.

We were there for 46 hours, touch down to take off...so it was a quick-but-awesome-trip!

SURPRISE!  Harper and Aunt Aubrie

(Can you tell we arrived on St.Patricks day?)

Heading to dinner and then the hotel

Sunday:

eating at the King Street Grill and playing with Uncle Brandon's gotee!

Sightseeing

Gotta love people watching!

Taking a little snooze during lunch

Touring around beautiful Charleston

After a long day, we headed back to the hotel for playtime.
It is very different visiting a city with a baby.

Hello?

There must be something super fun about Uncle Brandons hair!

Love this happy girl!

Sweet baby and Uncle Brandon

Silly Girl

Monday: Shopping!

First horseback ride! Thanks Aunt Aubrie!

Check out the Jeans at Gap. Too bad they spelled Aubrie wrong!

Eyes on the road Harper!

Getting our Shop-On!

Just before we were leaving Charleston, we passed the "Dream Lifter" at Boeing.

This is one of the rarest planes I will ever get to see!

I think it carries plan parts all over the world!

Crashing after a whirl-wind trip at the airport!

Just waiting to board!

(Videos of us surprising Aubrie...she just happened to be coming down stairs when we pulled up)

Thanks for being such a great hosts Aunt Aubrie and Uncle Brandon!!!

We love and miss you!!
