Happy Birthday to Harper

Harper turned one year old yesterday! I can't believe it has already been a year. Some times I am afraid that I am going to wake up one morning and my kids are going to be all grown up. They grow up way to fast! Here is Harper on the day that she was born.
Harper is such a sweet little baby. Here is a "small" list of my favorite things about Harper:

  • I love how happy she is and how she always smiles when I talk to her.
This a picture we took at the bowling alley a few days ago.

  • I love the silly faces that she always pulls.
  • I love, love, love her happy dance. When she gets excited or happy she sways her shoulders around and we call it the happy dance.
  • I love when I open the door in the morning to get her out of her crib, I can hear her kicking her legs in excitement before she even sees me.
  • My most favorite thing has to be when I pick her up and snuggle her close, she buries her head in my chest and pats my back.
  • We are so blessed to have such a sweet little baby in our home and we are looking forward to this next year with Harper.
