Rice Cereal

Harper tried rice cereal for the first time the other night. Let's just say she's not a big fan! It was definitely a shock to her, and she wasn't quite sure about it. She had a few bites, then closed her mouth tight and would not take anymore! 








Well Harper, I hope you start to like it soon! Fruits and veggies are up next in a few weeks!!

Happy Half Birthday!

It's so hard to believe that my little baby is already 6 months old. Half a year has flown by super quick! My sweet girl is beautiful, happy, playful, and so easy going! 

 Our official 6 month picture!
 Always kicking her feet around!
 Gotta love these cheeks!
 Such a wiggle worm!
 Ready to take off!
 Let's go Mama!
Ok, enough pictures already!
Waiting to see Dr. Basey for my checkup

At 6 months:
-You weigh 14 pounds (12th percentile) and are 25.6 inches long (33rd percentile). Your head is in the 81st percentile.
-You wear size 2 diapers and size 6 month clothes. 
- You are very active! You reach for everything, and it usually goes straight to your mouth. You kick your legs like crazy! You roll all over the place. One minute you are on your play mat, the next you're on the floor a few feet away!!
-You talk all the time! Your babbles are the cutest thing ever. You say "Dadadada" all the time! 
- You are very nosey! You rarely take naps at day care because you're afraid you will miss something. 
-You are such a happy girl! You smile and laugh all the time. You have a tickle spot under your arm that gets you every time. 
- You love playing with all your toys. You really like your saucer chair from Lexi, and anything that lights up or makes noise.
-You love to be outside. I can't wait for summer time, so we can go to the beach, camping, and start swimming!!! 
-You are getting quite good at sitting up all on your own. 
-Right now, you're still just eating breast milk, but we will be starting rice cereal this weekend and fruits and veggies in a few weeks.
-You still sleep in Mama and Dada's room in the rock and play, but we really need to move you into your crib in your room. I know I said this last month, but I really mean it this time! I know it's going to be hard, but necessary.

Harper Ann you make our life complete. The past half year has been the best! We love you!

Big Girl Sitting Up

My little baby is growing up! Harper is now sitting up all on her own and doing so well. She's still a little wobbly, so Mama and Dada have to stay close by. 








We love you big girl! Now stop growing so fast!!

Harper's First Easter

We had a fun and busy weekend celebrating Harper's first Easter. Poor girl was getting over a cough, but still had a fun time. I can't wait for next year so she can really enjoy all the egg hunts and other activities.     

First up, there was a party Friday afternoon at day care. Harper couldn't be there because of our planned trip to La Grange. Even though she couldn't make it, Harper still brought treats for her friends.

Mrs. Bailey made Harper a basket!

Our trip to La Grange was cancelled, so Harper got to spend the day hanging out  with Mama and Dada. 
 Silly faces...
 Then so serious!!
 Kisses for Mama and Dada while getting ready to go see the Easter bunny!!
 Pretty girl!

Saturday, we spent the day at Gaga and Pa's house playing with my cousins. My poor baby didn't feel very good, so we didn't get many pictures. 
 Pretty girl!

Stella invited us to go to church with her on Sunday. 
 Blessed to have such an amazing family!

We had such a good weekend spending time with family and celebrating Easter. I can't wait for Harper to get older and learn about the true meaning of Easter. God is good to us and we are beyond blessed!

Earrings!!

My sweet Harper Ann got her ears pierced a few weeks ago! Mama had been wanting to for a while, but Dada was a little unsure about it. He finally said she could do it, but he didn't want to be there when it happened. Mama ended up going all by herself because she knew if she didn't do it that day, it probably wouldn't have gotten done!!

Harper did great! She didn't cry after the first ear. Then after the second one, it hit her, and she cried a little. Mama held her and gave her love and she was fine in just a couple of minutes.

 Shortly after it was done!
 All smiles by the time we left the store!
My sweet little love later at home!
