Harper Update

So, I know I promised to keep this updated and I will try to do better in the future...we've been just a little busy the past 3 weeks!

Harper is doing very well. We went to the pediatrician yesterday for our 2 week checkup (just a little late, as she's now 3 1/2 weeks old). She now weighs 9 lb 2 oz and is 21 3/4 inches, so she is definitely growing.

Here are a few of her firsts over the past few weeks...


Leaving the hospital for first car ride and trip home. Thanks Aunt Kathy and Uncle Andy for my pretty pink dress!


First doctor's visit...

First doctor's visit continued. Note the wardrobe change, which was a result of the first major poop. Fortunately, we didn't get any photos of that.

First bath, which Harper enjoyed and Mommy was terrified of. Luckily Lovey and Daddy were there to help.

First photo shoot. Lots of fun for Mommy and Lovey. We're not sure if Harper enjoyed it quite as much.

She's here!

Harper Alise Anderson joined us yesterday, August 29th at 4:19 pm. She weighed in at 7 lb 8 oz and measured 20 1/4 inches. We couldn't be more excited to finally have her here and can't wait for her to meet everyone!

AHB Baby Shower

Today was the baby shower hosted by Jenn's sweet bosses, Jody and Ana. The entire office and several clients met at Mariposa in Neiman Marcus for a high tea luncheon. Yummy food (especially the desserts!) and great company made it a special treat. Baby Anderson received LOTS of baby gear and cute outfits, so she should be all set. Thank you everyone!

Check out all of the gifts...and the super cute diaper cake that Laura made. There were gifts in every tier...and she even used the "granola" diapers!

Baby's first Halloween outfit. Too cute!

Dessert towers!!

Caroline Gets Christened

Just a few photos of Caroline Stewart's Christening this weekend. She looked like a little angel and was very good through the whole ceremony. It has been so fun to watch her grow and develop her cute little personality. We can't wait for her to meet Baby Anderson!

34 weeks...and growing...

Just 6 weeks to go! We had our 34 week checkup this week and everything looks great. We'll hopefully have a sonogram in the next few weeks to see if we can determine how big Baby Anderson is.

Baby Shower

What a fun weekend! Lots of friends and family gathered at Mi Cocina for a wonderful baby shower. Thanks to everyone who came to help us celebrate...especially those who had a long trip. And a special thanks to Mysti, Kasey, Lacey, Lauren and Lauren for being such great hostesses. You, too, Catie Carlyle - we missed you!

Wonderful hostesses! Lacey, Lauren, me, Mysti, Lauren and Kasey

Marilyn, Lori and Taylor came in from Denver for a girls weekend. We loved having them here and appreciate the long trek they made...in the July heat!...to be with us for the weekend.

Mom and Grandma came in from Louisiana. Baby makes 4th generation!

Kasey and Mary rubbing the belly - believe it or not the belly seems to have grown since this weekend...

Daddy carrying the first of many pink presents for his little girl!

Nursery Update

Just a few pics of the bedding and nursery. We still have some finishing touches to put on the baby's room, but at least she has a place to sleep now!
