Happy First Birthday!

In about 45 minutes, Harper will be officially 1. It was about this time last year we were being prepped for a c-section, and had no idea of the speedbumps we'd encounter over the next few hours. Of course, as they say, it was worth it! Harper is definitely developing her own personality, walking everywhere and jib jabbing about this or that. My favorite thing (today) is her little chompers. She has these two vampire fangs on top, and nothing else. Love this! I finally captured a picture of it last night, so need to get it uploaded sometime.

We are celebrating tonight with soup and sammys, and then playing on her sweet new swing and slide set. The big party is this weekend, and we're all excited to see family on Saturday. I still can't believe she's One! This past year has truly flown by, and it has been awesome. Looking forward to year two!

Stealing balls!

First trip to the park--she loved it!

Trying out the rocks

Hey!

Wheee!

You can see one fang on the right side (her left).

Groundhog's Day

So, welcome to 2013! January was full of busy-ness in the Kant home, what with potty training in full effect, work being super busy and, well, I'm just really tired. Plus we moved out office into the basement and let's face it, out of sight, out of mind. And despite the ipad and iphone within arm's reach, I can't figure out how to post from the damned things, so there you have it. Like I said, January went by in a blur, but luckily the groundog (and more importantly, my mom, whose birthday is also today) didn't see their shadows, so yay! 6 weeks until Spring. Harper has begun potty training (well, has been in panties full time since late December) and is doing great with the potty piece of it. The pooping? Not so much, and what sucks is that she really couldn't care less when she drops one in her panties...this mom, however, could do without shaking poop out of panties multiple times a week. Our only saving grace is that she goes to the same place ...

September is here!

Well, it's practically here. Where did August go? Where did the summer weather go? I don't care, it's Fall weather here in Nebraska and I hope it's going to stay well into November. Ahh, September, it's my favorite month...and not just because it's my birthday month 29 on the 9th, it's kind of a golden birthday-9/9/09, so that means extra gifts, right? Right. We are very busy this month. This weekend is the first Husker game of the season, so my mom and I are getting out of dodge to visit my sister (I am displeased to learn that my brother in law is renting the game, I can't escape it!). We're going to a pirate festival, and a carnival, and to this awesome little kitchen store in downtown Independence. So excited for family fun. My nephew told me I can sleep in his bed, but only if I wear underwear...um, deal? Erich has many options that weekend, we have an engagement party in York, going to the game, watching the game...who knows how crazy he'll...

Disneyworld!

We went to Disneyworld at the beginning of the year and had so much fun! One of the best decisions we ever made, especially with Harper. She was a great age to really soak everything in and be in awe of the parks. Except Harry Potter World, which we decided was really more of an Erich/Susie/Couples trip. Any takers? I could try and detail out the trip, but I think the pictures do a much better job.

Keeping up with the Kants
