Too Much Fun!

A post other than a monthly update you ask???...I know, please be blown away along with me! This is RARE!!

However, it is going to be mostly pictures!

Harper is pretty particular about her water temperature, but once it is bearable she could spend all day in her pool!



 The face in the picture above is the face I get when I make a weird noise to try to get her attention! The face below is what follows the perplexed look because she is beginning to get a sense of humor! Momma is funny...for now anyway!



Too bad her face is half dark from the shade...it is still cute though!



Sweetest little face.


And we wrapped up our swimming for the day when all she wanted to do was eat grass...


yummmm yum!

Summer Loving

Here are a few pictures from Memorial weekend and a weekend with cousins!

Papa and Grammi's House










Daddy Jim and Gigi's House












Momma, Daddy, Uncle Nate, Aunt Tiffany, Uncle Bobo and Auntie S all got to go see Bon Iver. Unfortunately, we didn't get a picture of all of us or even just Daddy and I, for that matter. All I got were some blurry phone pictures, but Bon Iver was outstanding.  Daddy and I enjoyed a night out together!
Eight Months





On your eight month birthday...
Your stats:

Weight: 14 lbs 6 oz (not exact since we didn't go to the Dr. this month)
**You weigh the same as you did last month!! I emailed your Dr. and he said it was fine! You are just beginning to be more mobile!

Height: 27 inches (again, not exact)

Diapers: Size 2

Clothes: We have put up all your 0-3 month sleepers.  You are right on target, wearing 6-12 months, although they are pretty big on you!

Sleep: Still the same, with an 8 o'clock bedtime and waking between 6:30-7.

Feeding: You are still nursing 5-6 times a day.  On top of nursing you are eating solids 3 times a day! You are doing better than I could have hoped for. You are not picky at all and most of the time you are not messy!! Yay! (insert your little sweets claps here) 

What you are up to:

-You can clap on demand! :)

-You roar/growl just because your happy

-You babble "bababa"

-Anytime you see someones toes you try to tickle them.  If we don't laugh right away, you pull on our toes until we laugh or at least fake laugh to suit you!!

-We think your favorite color may be yellow. You always clap when we turn to that page in your color book.

-Momma turned 26. ouch!

-You figured out the meaning of "up"

-We went to Grand Lake for your first Memorial Day!

-You have almost perfected the pincer grip!

-May 29th- A huge hail storm hit and broke 3 of our windows and totaled our roof.  I went to get you out of bed since your bed is near a window.  You never cried, but you held on to me so tight and buried your head into my shoulder. 

-You bob up and down (while sitting) when you hear familiar music

-You swam for the first time May 4th in an inside pool at a hotel Daddy Jim and Gigi were staying at in Bricktown. You were a little unsure at first because the water was a little chilly, but once you got used to it you splashed, kicked, and laughed! I think we have a water baby!

-Every night before bed, Daddy dances with you around your room (ballroom style).  Most of the time you get the sweetest smile, but other times you are just ready for bed so you cry.  It is still so cute.  We love this time because the look you have on your face says you're in love with your daddy. ;)

-You can officially find Momma's nose when I ask you

-You are refusing to crawl.  Anytime we try to practice, you just turn over to your back.  I guess I'm okay with it. I don't want to wish away your milestones AND it makes my job easier for now! :)

-You know how to play peek-a-boo with a hat over your face

-You are doing really well at putting small pieces of food into your mouth

We LOVE watching you grow and learn!!

YOU ARE SO MUCH FUN!

We love you!
