Happy Valentines Day...

We celebrated Valentines Day two days in a row since we recieved so many valentines goodies. Here are a few pictures of Harper sporting her Valentines gear...look closely the pink hoodie actually has heart shaped pockets.



The best part of our day is when Hunt gets to come home for lunch, one of the perks of Woodberry life.
What a Ham! Harper is finally realizing what to do when the camera comes out.
She looks like such a good girl with her hands together.

These socks were too perfect for Valentines Day. We have to sport fancy socks since Harpers feet are still to small for most shoes.

Jump, Jump Around!

We finally broke down and got a jumper for our little jumping bean.
She hasn't quite mastered the jumping, but she has spinning down.

Excer-saucer Fun with friends.

Did you know that babies at this age need more sensory stimulation in their mouth than in their hands... hence why everything goes in the mouth first!
Harper believes in the tandem approach - hands and mouth. Thank goodness we scrub our toys from top to bottom before using them.
Drew taking advantage of Hunt not being around... trying to hold Harper's hand.
Two cutie pies!
The teasing begins...already playing like brother and sister.
Harper's first time letting someone play with her toys. You can tell she is unsure about this "sharing" thing.
Laura sharing some LOVE!
Laura cannot believe how light Harper is....remember Drew and Harper are 3 months apart.
What a good boy...on the move-watch out!

Sweet Sleeper

So hungry and so tired. Just let me hold the bottle myself.
Harper has really started exploring in her crib. She rid herself of swaddling then sleep sacks and now enjoys doing pullups using her mirror toys. We lay her in one direction and find her sideways with her feet reclining on top of her bumper. The challenge now is to teach her how to roll from her belly to back...

How could you resist this?
I am ready to get up...will you pick me up?
Oh yeah, I learned to roll over in my crib!
Daddy tucking me in...

Daddy teaching me sign language - time to sleep. The picture we did not include is the one where Hunt told her (in sign language) that she needed to sleep or bears were going to come eat her (bear, eat, sleep are a few of the easiest first signs to teach...hahaha).

Walkin' at Woodberry

We have finally transitioned Harper from her carseat stroller to her big girl stroller and we have been working hard to make sure that she likes it. We pack her in all bundled up and make sure she has a toy for the road . Voila -Happy as a clam in my stroller!

Hunt introducing Harper to the cows in woodberry's backyard. This fall there has been a large number of baby cows born and it has been fun to show Harper on our walks. We have to balance pushing Harper and controlling Watson - he secrectly wants to be a hearding dog. The odor isn't always pleasant but what better way to teach your kids about barnyard animals.

We just love this hat...



Hey Pete, check out my graphic tee...too cool huh!
