harper's close up

my sweet friend jenny black took pictures of our little family of 3 today. harper still didn't really want to smile much, but we pulled it out of her. i can't believe that she is 5 months. i mean, i can. the bags under my eyes say so. but it really is easy to forget the hard stuff when i look at how sweet she is. it's funny how even the little things are SO exciting. she has been rolling over. no big deal, right? WRONG. we love it. we see the Lord in her so clearly. this perfect little being. our hearts overflow with love for her. she is a picture of how the lord loves us. what a fun 5 months! here are a couple pictures from our photo shoot...

harper's close up 2

harper goes to the beach

harper got her first chance to feel the sand between her toes! we packed up and drove to surf side beach last week. we spent the week with david's family. lots of card games, yummy food, and NO WORK!! it was pretty dreamy. i am hoping to get some more pictures from grams but until then...


last but not least, this is harper in her bumbo chair. she always seem to look like she is in a recliner. it's pretty awesome. i like to call it the redneck babysitter because she can't get out of it. she has to just sit there.

windy gap

so, i'm playing a little bit of catch up here. but here are a couple of pictures from our month at windy gap. my friend ellie snapped some pictures of me and harper after an afternoon at the pool.


these pictures crack me up because it looks like harper is posing for these pictures that david took. i love it.

fun at the beach!

harper took her first trip to the beach last week. here is a little video of some silly play time at dinner.
