Big girls do cry

Harper has really been attached to us lately. The best story is from our neighborhood association meeting a couple of weeks ago. I was sitting at the front of the room, while Gina & Harper were at the back. I stood up to introduce myself, and Harper stands up and screams, "That's MY DADDY!!". It was hilarious. It isn't so cute though when you are trying to drop her off at daycare, and she bawls. The worst was last night though. Normally, she goes to sleep pretty easily and with a routine. Yesterday, she was a mommy's girl though, and turned me down for the book reading and to give her a bottle. Well, then she didn't want to go to bed and stayed up an hour and a half past her bedtime. Gina finally got her to sleep, but she woke up at 1am, and didn't fall back asleep until well after 4am. The absolute worst part of it all though, putting her down the first time, I made it down the stairs to get the monitor and Harper starting crying. I turn on the monitor, and Harper has one leg halfway over the crib railing. I made it up the stairs in less than half a second to keep her from falling. We really hope it was a one night anomaly, we can't handle that little sleep on a regular basis.

Acting goofy


On her new backyard slide, she was just a little excited about it


You can't drive by without Harper saying "My Park" and begging to go swing


She hated having the hood up, but we managed to get one good picture of our little butterfly
