Big girls!

The girls had their 2 month and 5 year old checkups last week. Harper was 43 pounds (71%) and 44.5 inches (86%)! No wonder why her pants are too short! She's getting big for dad to carry to bed at night! She is such a great sister and always looking out for her siblings! She loves talking to her sister and depending on the time of day loves her brother :) 





Harlow was 12 pounds 5 ounces (76%) and 23 inches (73%). She is a growing girl! We had to break out the 3-6 month clothes last week- what a sad moment for mommy. She is such a happy baby! She is following things around now. She loves to be entertained by her sister! She continues to sleep through the night! Mom goes back to work next week, so trying to enjoy lots of cuddles the next few days! She's smiling lots now and talking more but we can't seem to get a good smile on camera. 




Carter had to take a picture sitting with Harlow :) 





Birthday and Baptism Fun!

Holy Smokes- we have a 5 year old! We can't believe how fast these years have passed. We are so proud of our Harper and the little person she has developed into! She is such a great sister and daughter! She got to have a sleepover a couple days before her birthday with friends. She had a bed laid out in the toy room days before the actual sleepover- each place had a pillow, 2 book, a puzzle and a stuffed animal! She was so excited and had so much fun!

On her actual birthday, she wanted to go to Subway- which has become her new favorite! She requested or insisted is probably more like it- that Carter could not come! After our lunch, we gave her our present, a much needed new bike! She had worn a hole through her tire on the old bike the week before so it was time! We had a nice supper with grandparents that night with her favorite meal, spaghetti! 

Last Sunday, September 3rd, we celebrated Harlow's baptism and Harper's birthday! Harlow cooperated beautifully! We are so blessed she is a child of God! We chose Matt, Lacy and Kendyl to serve as her sponsors!  Harlow wore the same dress as Harper and a bracelet she got from Kendyl.
