This is Bret chasing Harper, in the beginning you can see her run head first into the wall :)
Harper had a great first Easter. She had two beautiful Easter dresses, so she wore one to church and then one to dinner. We hid one of her baskets under a blanket on Easter morning, but she couldn't find it so we had to show her where it was. It was really cute...her favorite part was standing up on the handle after she found it. She also got to hang out with her favorite nursery worker at church. There is one lady that especially loves Harper and she always give her lots of one on one attention. It makes me feel great about leaving her there.
On April 19th, Harper was nine months old! It's amazing how time flies. Now, Harp has been alive for longer than I was pregnant with her. That is incredible for me to think about. At her nine month checkup, Harper was exceptional as usual :) She is still 90-95th percentile for height (she was squirming so much that the nurse couldn't get a completely accurate measurement)! Her weight is normal, a little on the slender side. The doctor was very pleased with her development and said that she is almost certain that little Harps will be walking by her next visit at one year. Dr. Hyde also enjoyed Harper's high fives. It was a very pleasant visit because at nine months there are no vaccines! Yippee!
This summer is going to be a great time for our family. Bret and I will both be taking YL kids to camp. Bret's boys to Malibu and my freshmen girls to Rockridge. Then on July 19th we will be off to Malibu for Bret's month long assignment on Program Team! I am sooo excited for our first assignment even though I've heard they can be tiring. How lucky are we that Harper will have been to two Young Life camps by her first birthday?! What an awesome way to raise a child. We are so lucky to be surrounded by so many great people!
