Harper is 22 months old today! I'm not sure if that's is more shocking or the fact that I'm updating the blog on time.In the past few months Harper has totally become her own little person. She is absorbing so much and surprising us every day with what she understands and does.
A few days ago she impressed us all by counting to 4. I tried to catch it on video but so far the sight of the camera is a total distraction. She holds up her little fingers as she counts and claps when she's done. It's heart melting.
I think this November was the fastest month to date. We started a house project in our living room. We painted which involved two colors and some detailed work and touch up. But it looks great. We bought curtains for the room but we are waiting to hang them until we put up the crown molding. Hopefully this month.
Will went on a hunting trip over Thanksgiving so Harper and I spent the week in Brattleboro. It was a nice treat to see so much of Nonie and Poppa and Harper got to see a little extra of Alex and Kyler which is always nice.
Harper has become a bit of a climber. As you can see from that egg on her head. She actually fell off two dining room chairs at two different houses in one day. The first fall she hit her chin and the second got her forehead. Aiyiyi.
Other than that we've been enjoying our friends Stella and Jackson in Lebanon, taking lots of walks with Bella and trying to get Harper used to riding in the ergo again since it could snow anytime. We have a couple parks near our house, one of which is at a school and has a couple of slides. Harper went down the park slide alone for the first time. She was clearly nervous but excited when it happened and did it again and again. She has had lots of practice with the mini slide in our yard.
Harper's favorite things are birds, fish, the moon and of course elmo. She loves to be outside and look for birds, squirrels and the moon and she is constantly talking about fish. She always asks to read fish books. She recently got a super cute pair of elmo slippers from Auntie Megs that we haven't been able to take off of her.
Below are a few of our favorites this month:
