The Good, The Sweet, And The Eating/Riding Dirty

* Update: Mom, to clarify, "Ridin' dirty" is when you're in a vehicle and have the police (or ironically, the Po Po,) after you because you are carrying something illegal. In Harper's case I am pretty sure it is just toast crumbs in her sleeves.

15 Month Check-Up

Harper had her 15 month check-up on Wednesday.

She is 28 1/4 inches tall.

She is 19 pounds 6 ounces.

She cried when set on the crinkly paper of the examination table.

She stopped crying when she was told we were going home.

Many Moods

Doh!

Mission Accomplished

I have struggled for many, many weeks, but I finally did it. I figured out how to fold a pair of footie pajamas into a neat, stackable unit.

Now for the surge to fold those fitted sheets into submission...

Mush!

Harper is enjoying the snow/sleet today. Although she thinks Daddy should run faster.

Six Months

Six Months Ago

Today

Happy New Year!

A few new things for the New Year:

-Harper now stands up in her crib.
-Harper will walk with the aid of a walker.
-Harper still only has two teeth.
-Harper love to watch her sign language DVDs (This is what she is doing in the picture.)
-Harper successfully uses many signs throughout the course of a day.
-Harper's favorite signs: milk, eat, thirsty, more, full, clean, dirty, car, hot, cold, potty, poop, cookie, banana, apple, ice cream, girl, moon, stars, bear, dog, fish, bird, cat, tree, flower, sleep, cry, happy, sad, and silly.
Harper will sign any word she recognizes. If she recognizes the word, but doesn't remember the sign, she instructs us to show her over and over. Sometimes reading to her takes a long time because of this.
-Harper laughs when we say "ah-choo".
-Harper likes to have her chin tickled when she eats dinner.
-Harper will have been with us for six months on January 9th.
Wow.

Ok, Ok, Here Are A Few More.

(Just to clarify... The bottle of Bailey's Harper is holding was in Mommy's stocking.)



 

Still Recovering... More Later.... Must Rest Now...

 

Happy Holidays, Season's Greetings, Etc.

Harper would like to wish all of you a
Merry Christmas!
She wanted me to get this out to all of you right away (click on the 'Merry Christmas' link). It is her gift to all of you and probably the last time she lets her mom dress her in a funny outfit.

Ho, Ho, Ho.
