My Sleeping Booty, I Mean Sleeping BEAUTY!

I LOVE taking pictures of Harper when she's asleep.  She sleeps in the funniest positions, it's hilarious!  Her booty is always sticking it out!  I do not see how this can be comfortable, but whatever!  Who am I to complain when she sleeps 11-12 hours straight.  Nighty night my sweet girl!  

She is usually in such a great mood when she gets up!

Her newborn sleeper and her current PJ's.  What a BIG difference! 

Where'd my little girl go?!?!?



My Baby's one!!!

I seriously cannot believe that my baby girl just turned one!  You hear everyone say "You better enjoy it, they grow up so fast" and "You'll be celebrating her first birthday before you know it!".  I always thought, yeah right!  That day is SOOOOOOO far away! Well, it has come and gone.  And let me tell you, it does go by fast!!  It seems like just yesterday when I gave birth, when she smiled for the first time, when she rolled over, sat up, crawled and walked.  OH WAIT, she hasn't done either of those things!! But you know what?? I am in no hurry.  My baby is just growing up so fast.  Where's the pause button?!?!?!

Anyway,  she is doing amazing. She is weighing a hefty 19.2 pounds and is almost 28 inches in length. 

She is just the best thing that has happened to Matt and I.  Thank you for sharing this past year with us.  It has been the best year of our lives!

Harper Marlee Schuppert Day!!

So, in case you didn't get the memo, September 13, 2011 was offically Harper Marlee Schuppert Day.  This special holiday is celebrated throughout the world (our world!) and you must take the day off from work and whatever else you have planned to just love and honor Harper Marlee.

So that is exactly what Matt and I did! We had a blast with Harps!

The holiday's highlights include:
~ Cantando Las Mananitas a mi bebe
~Getting her pictures taken at Portrait Innovations
~Droppping off my homework down south at TX State (you aren't supposed to go to school on this holdiay either.  My professor understood.)
~Enjoying a yummy lunch in New Braunfels
~Eating dinner with family at home
~Watching Harper smash cake all over her face
~Toasting our first year as parents with the most wonderful daughter!

It was a spectacular day! No need to be sad if you missed this holiday.  Harper Marlee Schuppert Day will be celebrated again next year!  Until then, enjoy some pictures of our one year old daughter!

Harper's Birthday Party

My Harper girl turned one!!!! OMG! Where has this year gone??? We celebrated Harper's birthday at the Splash Pad at Williamson Regional Park. Family and friends joined in the festivities.  It was so much fun seeing the kids playing and interacting.  And watching Harper stare everyone down(she gives a good stink eye) and scoot to where she wanted to go (seriously, when is this child going to crawl or walk?!?!)  All in all,fun was had by all!  Thanks everyone for making Harper's first birthday party a smashing success!!
