Happy Halloween

We decided that Harper was a little too young this year to take trick or treating, really the candy would be for daddy and mommy and we certainly don't need it. However, we couldn't let the holiday pass without dressing up in some fashion. Grammy Kathy purchased matching Halloween outfits for Harper and her best bud Kaitlyn this summer. We dressed them up today and snapped some photos. Let's just say I wish I was better at photoshop so we could make the best picture. It's hard to snap a photo of a 8 week old and a 20 week old together.....maybe next year!

Smile for the Camera

I know....2 posts in one day!

Harper is beginning to smile more consistently now, but we're having trouble capturing the full smile on camera. While I'm still failing to get the complete Harper smile, I snapped these today......we're getting closer......

We are Family....

Harper had her first trip overnight to grammy and boppa's this weekend. Chris got a chance to catch one of Cale's football games and my girlfriends and I threw a shower for Kathy on Saturday, who is due with her baby girl this December. Saturday night we had dinner with the family and some long time family friends.

It came time to get the little ones ready for bed. Harper had started her bath when Lori decided Josh could use a quick rinse, which he took in the bathroom sink. Allie then joined in to see what all the fun was about. We snapped a few photos and were luckily able to capture this memorable moment.......

Sleeping Beauty.....

I should have taken a picture this morning of Harper in her crib because it was a monumental night. Ms. Harper slept from 7:30 last night until 6:15 this morning (with the help of a dream feed at 10 pm, one of the best things ever!) and woke up all smiles.

Although this was a great night for Harper I don't want to get my hopes up that it is now going to be a regular occurence, but it would be fantastic if it was.

Of course I was awake from about 4:30 on just waiting for her to wake up.....now if only mommy can train herself to sleep through the night again.......

Bath Time.......

.........one of Harper's favorite times of the day, followed by one of her least favorite times of the day which is getting out of the bath.

We snapped a few photos during last nights bath and thought we would share.

Harper loves looking at herself in the mirror ........

and when daddy blows on her tummy......

What's new....

Harper's grammy Kathy has been here visiting for the week and it has been so nice to for both mommy to have the extra set of hands and Harper to get to spend some bonding time with grammy.

We had our one month check up yesterday and are happy to report that Harper is as healthy as can be. She's weighing in at 9 lb. 14 oz. and measuring 22 1/4 inches......

One Month Old!

Harper is officially one month old today! She's such a big girl now she can sit in the chair all by herself......

Well, okay maybe not for very long.....

But she seems content no matter how she lands....

Who is the baby of the house......

This morning while Harper was taking a nap my two baby boys (Alki and Gibson) both needed some "mommy" time. I think they are confused about who is the real baby of the house.......
