Harper. 14 months.

Hey baby.

You are awesome.

Big month this month. You had your first big holiday to Melbourne, and you were SUCH a good girl in the car. Bless your little heart.

Jumping with both feet off the ground now. You eat everything in sight. You take your nappy off when it's wet and say to me "wee wee", you grab toilet paper and try to wipe your bottom saying "poooooo!".

Super, super cute. You have me in fits of laughter every single day.

I'm contemplating taking you for a haircut, no doubt I'll chicken out though, your hair is constantly in your eyes and it's driving me insane.

You love cars and trucks right now, you go "brrrrm, brrrrm" and "toot, toot" all day long. You've just discovered tv, and you LOVE Play School and the Wot Wots.

You're such a lovely girl - note: GIRL, not baby anymore. You've really grown up.

Today we had a chat, I said, "Harper, I love you" and you replied "I yarv you!". Oh so sweet.

I love you so.

Harper. The stats.

Finally, I had you weighed and measured, haven't had it done since you were 6ish months (I think!)

Little potamus, you are 77.5cms long and 9.8kgs with a head circumference of 49.5cms.

Of course, along with having you weighed and measured, you had your 12 month immunisations, which I will admit was a bit mean - especially 2 days out from Xmas, but you were very brave and it was all worth it for the purple lollypop you were given afterwards.

Happy 13 months little lady.

It's almost Christmas, you're going to be stoked with the little tram-am-poline we have for you.

You crack me up with your dancing, and you can almost jump too.

You love ducks at the moment, and you try to 'quack' by saying 'kwok kwok'. Super cute.

I'm not a fan of this one-sleep-a-day business you're doing at the moment...I hope it's a phase.

Love you lots little person. xx

Harp love

My crazy little bopper.

Harp.

Hey Harp!

You're not very well right now, you poor little sausage. We took your sister to the Hospital for Botox today and you stayed with Nanny & Poppy - all reports are you were a doll. Thank-you.

You went to sleep soonish after we got home, I have missed a whole day of Harp :(

Sleep tight my little friend, tomorrow we shall play. xx

Harper. 12 months old.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARPER!!

I love you more than chocolate my littlest person.

This year has gone so fast. Every minute with you is such fun. You make me smile always.

You've started walking this past week. It's beautiful.

You toddle around with such ease, it only took you 3 days to master. Today you tried to run, without much success, but it was awfully, awfully cute.

Your hair is so long now, it's curled at the back. You remind me of the guy from The Office, with your shaggy locks, but still super cute.

You still love to play peek-a-boo, but now it's aaah-beee! Too funny. You put your hand above your ear to hide.

You won't let me brush your hair, but you'll gladly do it yourself, the whole time saying, "preeeeeeet" for pretty.

Your favourite toys are Isla's textas much to her disgust. I often find you covered in texta on your legs. In fact, you really only play with Isla's things. You particularly love Isla's kindy days where you can play in her room all you like without getting in to trouble.

You still eat everything, I'm a little sick of my house smelling like sausages, seeing as though that's your favourite at the moment. You do have some strange texture issue with icing at the moment, you cry and try to wipe it off you while you gag, you strange little person.

I don't have many photo's of you right now, you're so hard to keep still, and all the shots I took of you this morning your eyes were closed (great photographer I am!) so this one will have to do for now. I know it looks like you only have 1 leg, but it was dark, stormy and about a billion degrees, all we wanted was to eat dinner and get stuck into your ice cream cake!

You babble all day now, and you call people by their names. Tonight you walked up to Poppy while calling out to him. You also yelled out "Bye Iyah!" at Isla's Kindy Orientation yesterday. You call all dogs Moopy after Nanny & Poppy's dog, and today you even said Suzy (yet another dog). Clever girl.

Happy 1st year Harp. You make my heart sing. xx

Harper. 11 months old.

1 month 'til you're ONE.

My precious little person.

Happiest kid on the block. My sweet little Harper, you've grown so much. I could listen to you babble all day and all night (well, maybe not all night!).

You take your pants off when you want a bath now. You can stand on your own without holding on for a few seconds before you realise and freak out.

You have the most bizarre half crawl/half walk thing happening, my little pussy cat.

Still eating everything, you love sausages the best.

Can't wait for your birthday, a year goes too fast. xx
