Harper at 18 months


Harper is 18 months and such a cutie pie! I find myself saying at least once a day...she is just SO cute! Harper totally knows how to be the center of the room and completely works the crowd. As soon as she hears music she starts dancing and shaking. She tries to sing songs and zones in on a single word of the song. For example if she sings "Jesus loves me" and hear...lalalalalaMElalalalalME. She is really doing well talking. I wrote down all the words she was saying before I took her 18 month check up and it was around 40. She will try to repeat anything though. She calls everybody in the house when she wants them. Mommy - mama, Daddy - dada, Grace - Gace, Olivia - Lulu. Her two favorite words are stop and mine. Harper plays very well with the older kids. She will go into the big girls room and play for half and hour. I have never had to worry about her putting toys in her mouth etc. BUT I did find her in the bathroom a few weeks ago playing in the potty. She loves the bath and I am super excited to see what she will be like this summer in the pool. She can be a little dare devil and loves to climb on things. She loves animals and is the only one in the house that will let the dog lick her all over. She is showing no signs of potty training (which i am not sad about) but will bring me diapers and lay on the floor when ready for a change. Harper does great in the church nursery and shows almost no signs of separation anxiety. She is loving her daddy time and runs to him as soon as he gets home from work. At her 18 month check up she weighed in at 26.3 lbs and 32 1/2 inches tall. (75% percentile for both)

The girl knows how to throw a good fit when things don't go her way. But mainly mommy just sees this. She is the only child I have ever left a restaurant before the meal was finished.

Loved being part of a big girl birthday party

Messing around with big sister stuff

Moved the kitchen chair into the den then climbed up to watch tv
