Walking... Well trying.

A couple of days ago I noticed that Harlow has starting pulling herself up on EVERYTHING! she has known for awhile how to do it but lately she does it on EVERYTHING and that's not an exaggeration. In her crib, on the coffee table, the dresser, the wall, her toys, our bed and even when she's sitting in my lap! She is getting so strong and independent. That makes for a happy and sad momma all at the same time.






I almost couldn't believe it this morning. Harlow and I were practicing her walking. I usually hold her hands on top of her toy to make sure she doesn't let go and fall. But today she kind of shook my hands off so I figured I'd let her try. And away she went! Once she figures out how to pick up the speed, our house will be a wreck! And our dogs won't know what him 'em! :)

She is a lot faster when you let her hold onto your fingers and walk with her.

Wednesday in Pictures

I've forgotten Wednesday in Pictures for awhile.
I didn't get many pictures today, I've had another migraine all day.
But tonight Pete gave Harlow a bath and I fluffed her hair into a Mohawk. I was excited it was long and thick enough to do.
So we snapped a couple of pictures.
Maybe we'll try a small ponytail soon...
Or a clip without a headband :)

She loves seeing herself in the mirror.
We have to hide my floor length one behind the door.
She is so strong she pulls it down onto herself.

We went shopping last weekend and every time we would pass a mirror she would wave at herself. The sales women thought she was the cutest.
Me too.
:)

Let it Snow!

Getting ready this morning.
We decided last night that we would get up and drive to the snow today.
So Harlow could experience snow for the first time.
We took the dogs too, hence, Gus is a sweater.

Shaver.

She slept the whole ride to Shaver, this picture was taken when she first got out of the car. She was still a little sleepy and grumpy.

And then she saw the snow!

Not too sure what to do.

Buddha was a klutz in the snow. It was pretty funny.

Clothes changed, back in the car, and warm again.
Heading for home.

Check out the mountains through the window.

My mom made her that adorable hat. LOVE.

So sad these family pictures came out so dark but you get what you get with the self timer.

I wish Buddha was in this picture too. We don't have any pictures with ALL of the kids.

Next time we go to the snow will be a lot more fun for Harlow and us. Next year she'll be running through the snow or sledding down the hill {Backwards, if she's anything like her dad}.
But we still had a fun morning.
Though it did reinforce my feelings of being a warm weather person. :)

Go Dogs!

Papa Rick and Grandma Lori were kind enough to invite us to a Fresno State Men's Basketball game. We haven't been yet this season. They played Utah State. We lost...

But we still had fun!
Especially Harlow. Her first basketball game.
She did really well.

Jessi and Uncle Nick came too.

Jessi and her friend Anna and Harlow.

Finally Some Girls!

Our family has been lacking in the girl department. All of the recent kids born have been boys until... NOW!
Jenna is almost 2
and Harlow and Miya were born on the exact same day! About 4 hours apart.

Watch out boys, soon these 3 will be everywhere!

Born on the same day...
BUT
check out that size difference.
at the time of these pictures Harlow was 15 lbs. 6 oz.
Miya is 22lbs!!

New Years Day, Harlow playing with one of her new Christmas toys.
