This update is SO late…but with good reason. Poor Harper had hand, foot and mouth disease and it took her a good five days to recover from that and she was so sleepy and low energy we didn't even attempt photos on her actual 11 month birthday. Harper surprised us by taking her first steps just a few days before her 11 month birthday! It was ...

Harper Reese- 10 Months Old!
We're in double digits, folks! Just two more months until this baby is one year old and each and every month I still marvel at the time that has gone by. Does the world just run in "fast-forward" mode when you become a parent? It sure feels like it. Harper has become the sweetest, funniest, silliest, most loving baby girl. Her personality really ...
Harper Reese- 9 Months Old!
Harper has now been living in the outside world as long as the amount of time she was growing inside of me…and just like my pregnancy, time seems to be passing at lightening speed and I'm desperately trying to hold on to all of these moments. So much has changed in the last month. Just a few days after I posted Harper's 8 month update, ...
Harper Reese- 8 Months Old!
Harper is on the move this month. She can get anywhere she wants to go if she wants to be there badly enough! (my favorite shot- taken randomly with my iPhone during her 8 month photo shoot) She is scooting and worming herself all over the place. She also wants to pull up on everything (and pulled up on her own for the firs time today--- ...
Harper’s Baptism
My apologies for the absence lately--- a lot is going on right now and I haven't had a lot of time to sit down and update the blog. My mom is in town, work has been super busy, my husband, Harper and I have all been sick and we found out the other day that we (finally) got into our top choice daycare, after being on the waiting list since ...
Harper’s First Swim Class!
Today we took Harper's to her first swim class! We signed her up to start last week but we had to delay since she was so sick over New Years. We will go once a week for 30 minutes. Harper is the youngest in her class right now followed by a 9 month old little girl. I love that the classy is mommy+baby or daddy+baby. It's so nice to ...
Harper Reese- 7 Months Old!
Seven is my lucky number and I'm so excited to share Harper's 7 month updates. Where to start? Harper now sits perfectly and is starting to pull up on a lot of things and wants to stand with support all the time. She has shown some interest in crawling but she's still working on it---she can go from sitting to her hands and knees (or many ...
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas from our family to yours! Wishing your family many blessings for the upcoming year... ...
Harper Reese: Six Months Old!
Six months. Half a year. How is my sweet baby girl six months old when it feels like only yesterday I was first cradling her in my arms? It is surreal to me how much more quickly time passes as soon as you have a baby. It's like someone presses the fast forward button and you just want to hit pause. Before I get to the update, I want to apologize ...
Our Weekend..
On Friday, our daycare held a little pow-wow for the families in each class to hang out and get to know each other and spend more time with the teachers too. It was a potluck so I picked up some fresh-baked cookies from Tiff's Treats. If you've never had them and you're in Houston, Austin or Dallas, I encourage you to order some, post haste! You ...
