Brooklyn Sleeps Over Recap

Our special guest just made our weekend! I am only putting a few pictures up because, I have another post to do and I am ready to hit the hay! We had so much fun, these pictures do not give all the laughs we had justice.
The first big event was to the park, Brooklyn is not the dare devil that Harry is, she is much more cautious. I have a feeling this is how they will be in high school too. Harry the rebel, and Brook the good girl. On the other hand, Brooklyn loves playing with balls, she and Harry do have that in common. I decided we are going to have to get a tea set for her next visit.



Brooklyn did not need Harry to show her how the toys worked, she figured them out pretty quickly on on own.
I pulled out the "bubbly" for the special occasion....neither liked it too much. A new bubble free tub and popsicles fixed those frowns right up!
If you watched the last 2 videos, they really get each other going! They played very well together.
Sunday morning was a different story, this is when I realized that having twins isn't so easy. Melissa, Michelle, and Ashley...I was beginning to think your job is much easier than it looked! It is easy when you don't go anywhere, the kids are always happy, and you have plenty of unhealthy food! Suz, you are in a whole different league!! They both wanted to be held and did not like it if one was picked up and not the other...Dum Dums to the rescue!
We loved showing our special guest off at church! She and Harry did not want us to drop them off at class but, ended up loving it after a few minutes! Keith Lancaster led singing today(for all of you CofC readers), it was a packed house...we told Brooklyn they were all there to see her! She had the cutest leapord dress on, I put on my matching dress, there was no time for pictures. I put Harry in his HU outfit from the Hall House, he was proud to show it off! Our Abilene friends said that he could not be bias until he had a visit!

Harry is not really crying....I don't think, but the holding hands was so sweet!We can't wait until Brooklyn comes to stay with her adoring aunt and uncle again! Even Harry got in on the Brook love!

Great Grand is Grand!

Harry and I decided to take advantage of the weekend and ride with my parents to Grandmother Georgia's house in NEA! Chad had a golf tournament on Sat. morning and one of his buddies spent the night with him on Friday! We missed him but, were not sad we weren't around with the Razorbacks lost another game! Bobo and Coco spoiled us by the entire weekend! Harry was not lacking in love the whole weekend! We miss them already! We wish they were just a 1 and 45 minutes closer!!!
I have been dying to take Harry's pictures in Grandmother's yard. Coco is a pro at making Harry smile, to bad she is not in the pictures! I have so many fond memories at her house! I love being there and it was even more special with Harry! This little closed mouth smile is what the nurses at his clinic are crazy about. I guess I never noticed until now! Speaking of, he went to his 9 month check up on Friday and he is over the 100th percentile in height! He was 80th in weight and 97th in head circumference! He did have a mild ear infection, BUG!!!

Grandmother Georgia is by far the best cook I know! I am bias but, her meals are breath taking! Everything is home cooked and everything is presented beautifully! Even if it is just a bowl of cereal, she puts out the prettiest dishes, napkins, silverware, coasters etc...! Harry helped Bobo watch the game!
He cuddled with Grandmother before bed! Luckily, Coco put him to be bed so that I could get a Scrabble game in with Grandmother! She beat me!
He was in awe of her!
She was woken by a little explorer in her kitchen!

Our weekend was not over yet, we had dinner and ice cream with McCoy's mom and dad! I will have to put up pictures of Harry with them, McCoy is coming any day now! Whooo HOO!

Harry's First Visit to the Millers

The Warehouse had a fun time at Kirk and Rachel's house. We played air hockey, ate some yummy chilli, and Harry received some good loving! http://kirkandrachel.blogspot.com/ Kirk is a natural with Baby Harry! Harry can learn lots of things from this guy!!
Like how to play the slots!

We enjoyed our short visit! We always have a good time with Aunt Rachel and Uncle Kirk. Harry played so much he slept all the way home!

Glamma and Grandbo/Grandaddy(name undetermined) VISIT HARRY

My mom and dad have not been able to see Harrison since the day he came home because they have been taking care of my Grandmother who has been in the hospital! They were determined to come up today (Harry's 4 week birthday) even though the weather is awful! It is such a breath of fresh air to have my parents come over to encourage and love on all of us! They brought Harry his first "tuxedo" and quickly dressed him up. As soon as Harry got in Grandbo's arms he was out and decided to sleep most of the time. Glamma taught Harry lots of her dance moves and he seemed to really enjoy their party! They live an hour and 45 minutes from us, so a day trip is not hard to do. If I had it my way they would be much closer. Harry loved their visit and was very sad when the left!

Dezi's visit

Dezi, Ria and Emily came to visit Harry today. Dezi has been waiting a very long time for Hawweeey to come out of Amanda's tummy. Dezi quotes:
"Can he walk a little bit?"
"Please put him in that!" (referring to his swing)
"Please wake him up!"
"Harry WAKE UP" (mulitiple times)
"What are you feeding him, Amanda?"
"Are you poopy?"
"I am not touching him"
PLEASE put him in that!"

Harry and the Hicks

These are some of our good friends from church! They have been so good to us since the announcement of Harry's arrival. Holly gets "amanda's question of the day" everyday! Harrison is 2 and a 1/2 and a load of fun, he doesn't mind that Harry has the same name! Lindsey is another Harry's girlfriend prospect but she is a year older. We love their family very much and so does Harry!

When Harry Met Adalie

Springdale Divas

These 3 ladies have been close to Chad and his family since he was in high school. Linda and Trudy's sons are Chad 2 best life long friends and Cindy's daughter was also one of Chad's good high school friends. They have engulfed me with love ever since we met and I absolutely adore them. Harry loves them too!

Harry Meets Grann and Memaw

4 Generations!

DAY 4

We are moving into survival mode, I figure we have a get out of jail free card for any mistakes we make these first 2 weeks. Harry did not want to sleep by himself this morning,who can blame him, it is much more fun sleeping with someone else! Daddy woke us with this picture!

Uncle Kirk and Aunt Rachel came over with pizza for the Warehouse! Harry loves to stare and coo at them! We received our swing in the mail today from my sweet Aunt Karen and Uncle Dale! I always want to unwrap my new gifts as soon as we get them! Kirk jumped in to help while Chad hogged Harry. Of course, Chad knew I would blog about this so he gave Harry up to Rachel and he helped finish it. We love them so much, and Harry obviously does too!
