Hey Everyone,
Time for a personal post today. My little daughter, Harper, turned three on Feb 7. Everyone says this, but I really can’t believe how fast the time has flown. She is an unbelievable source of joy for Brooke and me and is quickly transforming into this little strong-willed, determined, bright, hilarious, and energetic little wonder of a girl. How’s that for proud “Daddy Bird” (one of my many nickname) speak. Brooke made all of the preparations for her birthday party this year which ended up being an art themed affair. The first part of the event was to be dancing and gymnastics and Harper wanted nothing to do with it. Seems she was not the center of attention so she decided to camp out under the administrative desk. I felt so bad for Brooke but she handled it well and ultimately Harper snapped out of it and enjoyed all that Brooke had put together. I, of course, took plenty of pictures, some of which I’ve posted below. The balance of the shots can be seen here.
A week later we decided to go for Harper’s 3 Year Old Photo Shoot. I had my doubts as to whether she would cooperate with Dad as the photographer as I’m simply viewed as a live, personal jungle gym by her much of the time but fortunately she went along with the program pretty well. Here are some of those pix and the rest of the shoot can be seen here. Thanks also to Jessi Ringer for helping out. She got some great stuff as well and here is a link to her blog and some of the images she captured.
