2 weeks old!

Harper is 2 weeks old today! She has already changed so much from those first photos at the hospital! We are loving every minute of being parents (literally, even getting up at night!) and feel so blessed that we have such a healthy, beautiful little girl! She is still sleeping really well, 4-5 hour stretches! She really only cries when she is hungry or has an upset tummy. She and Kennedy are still getting along well- he likes to give her kisses every now and then, but otherwise has kept to himself. Harper had her Dr. appointment last Friday- she went from 6 lb. 13 oz. to 7 lb. 10 oz. Needless to say, she is eating really well and Dr. said she is healthy and doing great. We don't go back until our one month check up now! She got to meet her Uncle Dan this week, and we asked him to be Harper's Godfather. He was really excited and honored. Also, she got to meet Mr. and Mrs. Kuennen on Sunday- we went to Joe and Becky's for ribs :) She has had a busy 2nd week!! She is really excited for tomorrow when she gets to meet Grandma Betsy!

4th of July!

Harper's first holiday! We went to the Lomas' to celebrate the 4th of July with a small group of friends. My parents were in town, so they came with us. Brian and Kalin made a ton of delicious food and everyone enjoyed seeing Ms. Harper. She really did have a good time, although it doesn't look like it in this family photo :)

1 Week Old!

Wow! They always tell you how quickly time flies when you have kids...I hope it slows down a little. Justin and I cannot believe she is already a week old. The transition of brining her home was flawless. Kennedy seemed less than interested and has been really great with her. Harper has been sleeping 4-5 hours at a time, which has been great for Mommy and Daddy at night! My mom and dad were here helping a lot this week. It was so nice to come home from the hospital to a clean house, fresh sheets on the bed, a freezer full of food, and helpers to allow us to get a bit more rest! Thanks mom and dad! Overall, a very enjoyable but fast first week!

Happy Birthday Harper Grace!

Harper's First Picture

First Family Photo

On June 26,  a typical summer day,  at 3:23 in the afternoon, they placed a 7 pound 6 ounce miracle in our arms. 5 days early and only 6 hours after arriving at the hospital, she arrived and she was perfect- we named her Harper Grace!
