Harper's 5th birthday has been the birthday that never ends. She's been looking forward to being five for quite some time and we lived it up big! She has a great party at Premier with some sweet friends!
That evening we had a family celebration at Nana and Pop's house.
Great Bamama gave her her very own afghan.
The birthday celebration continued into the following week when we invited her school class to our pool for swimming and pizza. She had a wonderful time with her precious friends who helped her celebrate. On her actual birthday (the 2nd) we spent it at the lake celebrating the 4th. Bamama had her convinced the fireworks were all for her birthday. Happy 5th birthday to our precious girl!
A few things about our girl at 5:
She has started ballet this summer and LOVES it! She loves to twirl and dance to music and be her free spirited self. She knows what she wants in life. She also enjoyed gymnastics, imaginative play, and television. She's a junky. Harper is our child who could play for hours in her room without any complaints. She can entertain herself with things I never imagined possible.
She's still a terribly picky eater, but has actually started asking to try new things lately. We haven't come across too many new foods she actually likes, but willingness to try new things is a huge start. She prefers water and milk over anything else. I seriously have no idea what I"m going to put in the kid's lunchbox this fall!
She adores her brother and sister to pieces. She enjoys mothering Anderson, and she and Payton are best buds (and worst enemies at times). They choose to share a room even though they have their own.
God definitely put this angel in our lives to make life fun. She's spunky and full of love!
