Memorial Day Weekend

We spent the weekend up in Fairmont at Grandpa & Grandma Stougaards.

Lovely weather, lovely company! It was relaxing and wonderful.

Time is Flying By!

Wow! Harper Grace turned 3 months old yesterday!
It's been a wild month involving me going back to
work, moving into our new house & even a road trip
down to Hot Springs, Arkansas. Hopefully, we'll be able
to slow down a bit and enjoy our summer.

Here are some fun pictures to share of our growing
baby girl.

Harper's 12 week portrait session! Finally caught that smile!

Mother's Day 2009: A lovely brunch at Grandpa & Grandma Gorders!

What a fun way to spend my first one :)

Harper in the car on the way down to Hot Springs, 12 hours down,

14 back - what a trooper!

Two Months!

Easter 2009 - had a hard time taking a picture awake that day,
but wanted everyone to see Harper's adorable outfit! Happy Easter!

Harper is 2 months old today! Time is going by so quickly...
Such a joyful and wonderful little girl, we are so thankful for
our lovely Harper Grace.

Coffee Date

Harper & I joined Sara, Elliott & Eva for coffee at Scooter's yesterday. Hoping soon that it will be warm enough so we can walk over, but
still quite chilly out. Come on spring!

33

Mike turned 33 last Sunday the 5th. We went out to Old
Chicago to meet a few friends & family to celebrate, then
stopped by his beloved Molly's Pub for one last beer before
heading home to the babe. Happy Birthday Mike!

6 weeks

Our sweet girl turns 6 weeks old today!
Can't believe how quickly time has been passing.
She's starting to smile a bit - which is a delight each time she does it - still trying to capture it in a picture!
She's started to giggle in her sleep whichmakes us giggle too!
We think Harper has hit a growth phase this past week - eating almost
every two hours & sleeping really soundly.
Here are her latest pictures - beautiful hand knit sweater thanks to
Great Grandma Shan.

It looks like we're going to be moving soon! We put in an offer on a house we absolutely love and it was accepted at 10:00 last night. It's perfect for our family of three with lots of room to add and grow as we do. We are so excited! Can't wait to have all of our family & friends over to see it.
