Beautiful day for some baseball

Jeff's team played in a tournament the past few days. It was beautiful weather so I invited several girl friends and their kiddos to join us at the game this morning. We had 12 kids under the age of 3. I think that was more toddlers than CHS has seen at a game before!  The kids had a great time running around and "watching" the game.

Andrew and Harper had an impromptu dance party each time the music would come on between innings

Harper's new chair is just her size.

After the game, the kids had fun running around the field and then Jeff loaded them up in the gator and drove them around the field.  All of the boys loved it!!

"Where's Andrew?"

Harper and Anna took a turn driving the gator

What a perfect day for baseball.

More dress up

Before school on Thursday Harper played a little dress up.

Playdoh Mixup

Sometimes while I'm trying to fix dinner I'll put her in the high chair and let her play with playdoh.  As you can see below I've given up trying to keep all of the colors separated.

She got really frustrated when she couldn't get the lid on this container.....hmmmm I wonder why?

Dress up & Bed Head

Harper enjoys playing dress up with her tutu.  She got dressed this morning and then almost immediately walked out with this over her clothes. 

Of course she had to take care of her baby dolls this morning.  She takes them for walks and feeds them breakfast after she eats. I love watching her imagination at work.

A little bed head

My friend, Sarah, made this tutu for Harper's first birthday!  Good thing it has a stretchy waist band.

I know that this is only the beginning of many more hours spent playing dress up!

My little man

We just pulled the exersaucer out of the attic and Brody seems to like it.

Everything goes straight to his mouth.

His little feet barely touch the bottom.

Big sister helping him figure out what makes noise.

 Seems like just yesterday that Harper was in this same exersaucer. Here's a link to a few pics of her at this exact same age.

Pig Tails

Harper's hair is getting longer and it's "fun" to try to get her to stand still long enough to fix it.  She thinks it is cool to have pig tails so sometimes she will stand still for about 60 seconds.

Pig Tails

This was March of 2010 and my sad attempt at pig tails.

Arboretum Visit

Saturday morning my parents and sister, Rebekah, were in town and we made plans to go to the Dallas Arboretum for the morning. The day started off a little chilly and dreary but it warmed up pretty quickly.  We had a nice time walking around the gardens.  We told Harper we were going to a park - so she kept asking where the slide and swings were.  We changed our lingo to "garden" pretty quick!

Aunt Beka & Papa with Harper 

They had a pioneer exhibit set up with miniature houses that you could walk through.  Harper enjoyed going from house to house exploring.  

Not so sure of the Tee Pee 

The kids in the covered wagon 

It's pretty challenging to get a picture with both kids.  This was the best one with me.

This is how we walked through the Arboretum. The stroller carried all of our stuff, Brody wanted to be held, and Harper decided to cling to my leg!  

One Cool Dude! 

We ignored the sign that said "Do not climb on statues!" 
Sweet kisses  

Wonder what she is telling him here...

Thanks to Papa, Mimi, and Aunt Beka for a fun morning!
