6 month update!

Well.. our baby is 1/2 year old!! Harper is showing more and more of her personality everyday and is so much fun!  She is the only baby I know that can laugh and cry at the same time haha! Its the funniest thing.. She will be upset about something but is such a happy baby so she will cry, then laugh, then cry some more and then continue laughing! We love her more and more everyday!!
Here are her stats from her 6 month appointment:
Height: 25.75 inches 50th percent
Weight: 14.11 pounds 25th percent
Head circumference: 40 centimeters 3rd percent

She is still a lot taller than Kinsey was.. AND her head is finally back on the charts! Brandon and I were betting on how much she would weigh and we guessed the high 13lb range.. we were about a pound short haha This girls LOVES her food and will eat 24/7 if I let her.

*Harper will sleep in the mornings until I wake her up.  This morning Kinsey didnt get up until 830 so we all got to sleep in as a family! Thanks Harps ;) but usually she is up no later than 730.

*She nurses 4-5 times a day and has 3 solid food meals a day. One at breakfast, 11am for lunch, and 530pm for dinner.

*She has had bananas, apples, pears, cantaloupe, blueberries, peaches, sweet potatoes, yams, green beans, peas, carrots, broccoli, and zucchini.  So far her favs are bananas, apple/blueberry combo, carrots and zucchini! AND I have made every.single.one of her baby foods :)

*Big sis LOVES to feed her and Harper usually eats better when Kinsey feeds her so its a win win!  This gives me time to eat or to fix Kinsey a meal!

*Harper is still the happiest baby I know and is always smiling, laughing and just lovin life

*She still takes 3 naps a day. Morning 9am, afternoon 1pm, and a cat nap around 530pm. Then bedtime is anywhere between 8-9pm. I have gotten bad about having a strict bedtime with my girls lately.. but its summer so its ok right?!

*Miss Harps can roll over.. but you wont see her do it very often.  She would rather scoot around and kick her legs to move.

*She sits up pretty well on her own now too!! I dont feel comfortable leaving her while she is sitting yet..but she does really well!

*This girl absolutely adores her sister.  When I cant calm her down.. Kinsey can!

*Her size 3-6 month clothes no longer fit.. the pants are either floods, or the shirts are a little snug in the belly area ;)

*Harper LOVES to snuggle, but hates being held like a baby unless she is nursing.

*When she gets really excited, she hits the top of her hands and squeals!

*Harper enjoys being outside and lies on the blanket under our tree with her arms above her head and just chills :)

*She has to be around someone at all times.. if she is left in a room by herself, she gets very mad haha

*This girl gives some of the BEST and juiciest kisses EVER!!! I love em ;)

I cant believe she is already 6 months old.. before we know it, she will be 1!!!!!  We love you Miss Harp-a-barps!

dont judge.. every girl needs chocolate.. no matter how young! haha



Silly goose Kinsey! These two play so well together!!!!





She even wakes up with a smile!!
