That sweet little lady of ours is TWO years old! Oh, how she has changed our lives... That sweet little smile, those curls, her blue, blue eyes her tight hugs, her little giggle and that sassy personality! She's a character, that's for sure. Harper brings joy to everyone who meets her. They can't help but smile when they see her sweet face and curls. She's reserved at times, but also very social. She's still a mama's girl, nursing multiple times a day, but overall has become a good eater. She loves broccoli and anything dairy (we call her the 'dairy queen'), cheese, yogurt, ice cream... She's looks sweet, but boy is she 'spirited' and looooves expressing her little opinion! She refuses to wear clothes most of the time, will only wear shoes if they are the same as Buba's (ie. Crocs or flipflops) and has been throwing a huge fit over going to bed lately. Her favorite words are 'mine' and 'no'. When relaxing, she must always have the two middle fingers of one hand in her mouth and the other hand in her bellybutton. She throws a fit if her outfit doesn't allow for bellybutton access (which may be why she refuses to wear clothes at all). She knows all her body parts, some letters and a few colors. She's sharp and knows exactly what to do if you ask her to do something. Just a couple days after her birthday we finally turned her car seat around to forward facing and I think she's liking the view (esp of the DVD player!)...
To celebrate this little lady's birthday, we all sang Happy Birthday to her in bed that morning! Got her dressed up in a sweet pink outfit (tutu included) and headed to see some friends a the LLL meting. On the way, however, we stopped by Krispy Kreme to pick up some donut holes to share with all of our friends! After nap that afternoon we surprised her with a pile of presents, a new doll house and even a little "2" crown to wear. We Skyped with Grandma and Grandpa W while she opened her gifts and blew out her candles. She loved every minute of it! All the toys, ripping the paper, Skype and blowing out the candles (E loved it too!). A couple days after her actual birthday we celebrated again at a friends house with some of her friends (any excuse for more cake and a fun get-together with friends, right?). We grilled and had some drinks while the kids played in the baby pool followed by cake and presents. So glad our friends could celebrate with us (I know H loved it too)! Oh, I almost forgot to mention that the morning of her birthday, H woke up with swollen, puffy eyes...so we squeezed into the pediatrician the following day and turns out that she had pinkeye in both eyes and an bacterial sinus infection. Ugh. Good news is, it didn't even seem to phase her! She's a trooper!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY GIRL!!
