End of the Holiday Season!

We had our last celebration on Saturday with my parents. Harper got spoiled by her aunties and grandparents! 

She got a double stroller for her babies, she was a bit more excited to sit on the box :) she also got a pretty cool drive toy, she needs a little practice tho! 

We took our tree down lastnight and I'm pretty sure Harper was doing a happy dance inside to finally have it gone! Better luck next year :)

Christmas Fun!!

What a busy, wonderful 2 days we had celebrating Christmas!! We are so blessed to have such wonderful family. It was so fun to watch Harper open her Christmas gifts and boy did she get some good ones! Once she realized she got a baby from Santa, she wasn't much interested in the rest of her gifts Christmas Morning :)

I failed this year at remembering my camera and taking pictures. I did manage to get a picture of Grandma Koehler and most of the grandkids! 

We have one last Christmas to celebrate with Grandma and PaPa Koehler on Saturday! 

Weekend Fun!

Saturday night we got to celebrate Christmas with the big Gansebom gang! Harper had quite a bit of fun playing with all the second cousins! Her and Rylan are  about 6 1/2 months apart so it will be fun to watch them play together for years to come! 

Tonight Kels and Kearney stopped on their way back to Lincoln so we decided to do supper at Michael's of course! Harper loves black olives. She will only eat them one way tho :)

After supper we drove through the Christmas lights at Divots. Harper had the best expressions and she loved dancing to the Christmas music, a girl truly after my heart :)

Little Mama

Harper has been into her babies for quite a few months now. She gives them a bottle, burps them, rocks them-the whole works! Not sure how she caught on to this because she is usually the littlest one if we are hanging around any kids, except for daycare I guess. Just proves to show that she catches on to anything! 

This morning she decided her baby needed a diaper! She was quite the perfectionist on placement of this diaper :) 

Pre-Christmas Fun!

What a busy few days we have had.

We had Tyler's work Christmas party on Saturday night so Harper got to hang with grandma and grandpa Gansebom for the evening! Sounds like grandpa was teaching Harper some naughty things...like sitting in her baby's stroller! 

Sunday we had our Christmas for the Bartz's as Gaga and grandpa leave for California this week. Harper loved opening presents! Can't wait for the next week ahead! 

We of course had to stop and see the puppies, who are growing so fast! One of them is a little rowdy, which Harper wasn't so sure about :)

Today we spent the day in Osmond and Harper got to play with Addie and Lyv. The tote was a hit!

The girls are starting to play more together, they are so fun to watch! 

Friday the 13th...

Well so far 'the old wives tale' holds true for poor Harper. She came down with a case of the flu. Talk about no fun! Today was the only day I was okay with having hard wood floors! Unfortunately the new rug we layed yesterday got broken in pretty quick :( But luckily it was pretty short lived, and by tonight she acted mainly like herself so we decided to drive around and look at Christmas lights!! 

We are sure praying that Ty and I don't catch what she had! Hopefully we will have better luck the next Friday the 13th! 

Outtakes!

Here are some of the outtakes from our attempt at a Christmas card photo! Wasn't much holiday cheer that night :)

Isn't she so cute tho?!?! 

This is as good as it got!

Step By Step

I promise...Harper is getting closer to walking!  She is taking more and more steps between the two of us each day and getting much braver at standing up on her own and walking! I honestly think we will have a walker by next year, maybe even Christmas! 

With Christmas fast approaching, I thought I'd try to get a picture (with my new camera!!) of Harper by the tree for our cards, talk about a challenge. She was not about to get close enough to the tree for me to take a picture. I couldn't even entice her by sitting her in her rocking chair or playing with an ornament.  Better luck next year I guess :). We've decided we should probably forgo visiting Santa this year, for all our sakes!
