Round Rock/Austin Trip

Harper had a great time with her Aunt Christy, Uncle, and cousins Jonathan and Isabella. We stayed at their house for 2 nights and besides a few break downs, Harper did well and enjoyed her first stay at their house.

Harper was baptized in the Lutheran Church on July 26th. The ceremony was attended by most of our immediate family. It was great to have everyone there to share in this special day!

Just an update

Hey everyone! Well just wanted to give an update on things in our life. Harper is growing like crazy! She's 14 lbs. and 24 in. long. It's so hard to believe how time flies. Before we know, Mommy will be having to go back to work and Harper will be spending some quality time with Daddy and Grammy T. Harper is getting baptized this weekend in the Lutheran Church that her Dredla Grandparents go to. It will be nice to see family and spend a weekend out of town. Harper is starting to really get the hang of sitting up. She won't be there for another month or so, but she is definitely giving it a valid effort! She loves playing in her jumperoo. She is so funny, just bouncing around like crazy. Only bad thing is, she can't sit still anymore! Now when you hold her she just moves around and jumps! She's cooing up a storm and is starting to really giggle often. She's also smiling at any person who will look at her! She has also started teething...3 1/2 months and she's teething!! You can see to white caps on the bottom middle. We'll probably have a tooth or two in the next month or so. The drooling is uncontrollable and she won't stop biting on her fingers, mommy and daddy's fingers and anything she can get her hands on! All in all she's doing wonderful! I hope you can come see us soon! Harper loves visitors!!

Baby Dedication

Harper has now had 2 baby dedications. Her first one was at Grammy and Grandpa Truesdale's Church on Mother's Day. The second dedication was at our church-Real Life Fellowship. These pictures are some that Aunt Bonnie took after the dedication! They came out so well and look professional!! We have one final "dedication". On June 26, Harper will be baptized at Grammy and Pa Dredla's church. This little girl is very blessed!






Visit with Daddy at work

Harper loves going to visit her Daddy at work. Last time we were there, we decided to take a few pics!




July 4th with the Zickefooses!

July 4th was such a great time! We had the entire Zickefoose clan over to visit! Harper especially had a great time with her buddy Kadyn! Kadyn couldn't stay away from her. He even got to help give her an evening bath!




Aunt Christy is the best!

So my sister has continued to give and give to us! We are constantly being offered clothes, toys, etc. I cannot express how awesome this is! We are truly fortunate to have someone give to us continuously! Aunt Christy, Uncle Joe, Jon and Izzy sent Harper a glow sea horse and she loves it! Thought I'd put a picture up of her loving her toy and sitting in her Bumbo they gave her! :)
