Even though Harper will be eight months tomorrow, I thought I would update what has been going on for the last month. At The beginning of March Cherry had her 60th birthday party. We threw her a party at our house for her birthday and we had a great time. Harper was the hit at the party and even though she was sooo tired she didn't want to miss a thing. She never took a nap. Silly girl!
Then on March 14th we left and went to Utah for our second family vacation. Harper was an amazing passenger on the flight there and back. The flight attendant even said she won the passenger of the flight award. :) We wnt on this trip with our neighbors, Chris, Catalina, and their 12 month old Thomas. When we arrived in Park City, Utah we checked into out lodge at the Canyons and picked up our ski and snowboard gear. Then on the following days we would ski, the boys would snowboard, and the babies went to the childcare palce at the lodge. This was only my second trip skiing, and they were all advanced, I really tried to keep up with them. On the first day that we ski'd I was going so fast down the mountian (Brian said I looked like I was going faster than a professional, haha) and I couldn't stop and I literally TUMBLED down the mountain. With no helmet on! So that did put a rough start out to the trip, because from then on I was scared that was going to happen again.
Other than that, we had a fabulous time!!! We had chocolate stuffed waffles at the top of the mountian, Harper played or stared at the snow, and it was a great family vacation.
Between all of our fun activities I have been taking Harper to physical therapy every other week. She is improving soooooo well!The physical therapist said she is so pleased with how well Harper improves every visit. I although, am getting frustrated because I do exercises with her daily and I just feel like she should be sitting up completely on her own by now. She does sit, but then with her bad habit, of pushing back, she falls over. I'm ready for her just to stay seated. But Harper definitely wants to do what she wants to do and she just isn't ready yet. I took her to the doctor last Friday and since her 6 month check up her head has grown a whole cm. Which is really good. I just think Harper has a small head when compared to others, because it matches her body size. So the doctor and my opinions she is doing great!!! Woo Hoo!
This past Sunday Brian had to work so Harper and I had a mommy and daughter day out. We had SOOOOOOOOOO much fun. First we went and saw the Easter Bunny, then we went and took pictures in the bluebonnets. After that we went to the pool at Villa Sport and we swam. Harper had so much fun, she splished and splashed. She thought it was so fun! She kicked her little legs and laughged. I can not wait to take her to the pool again this weekend! :)
