You amaze me at 21 months. Harper you are growing like a weed daily. Of coarse you only grow up not out. Haha , you are so tiny . I am constantly trying to feed you and yet you never slow down enough to gain any weight. Last time I took you to the pedi, which was recently , you weighed in at 20.4 lbs. Off the charts girlie.. Oh well, we love your little petite self. You are so smart. Amazingly smart to your parents :). Your vocabulary is far beyond what I could sit here and tell. You pretty much repeat anything we say.

You are currently cutting your incisors now which will be happening any day. Your hair is getting longer but still not enough for a pony tail. Size 3-4 shoe. And you are still wearing 12/ 12-18 month clothes. Bedtime is good , except you have now discovered how to postpone it. Cracks me up every night because you keep asking us for things like one more hug or you ask for new milk. And recently you started asking me to lay with you. I love it. I am always looking for any reason to snuggle with you!! Your new obsession is BUGS. Every kind of bug! All day long you find small bugs , big bugs, colored bugs, ants or worms. You haven't really touched them , you are only a little bug detective. I bet you say the word BUG 100 x a day. Also you are starting to understand there is a baby in mommies tummy. You now give my belly hugs and kisses and if we ask you where the baby is you point to my tummy. I still cannot get you to say Lillian but you will say Lily. I look forward to the day you meet her. You are such a blessing Harper and I think you make us laugh a million times a day. You are using the word NO all the time but you are really such a good girl. I cannot imagine life without you and I feel so blessed every night, I just thank god that we get to be your parents. I love watching you grow and cannot wait to see who you become. WE LOVE YOU HARPER LYNNE!!
