I can't think of anything to title this post . . .

Life has been pretty great lately. Having Tom home more hours during the week has been SO nice. We spent some time at Venice Beach recently, but forgot to take the camera. We also had dinner at Apple Pan with our fellow BYU-alum and current Irell employee Jamie. But the highlight of the week was the BYU/UCLA game yesterday. All four years that I was at BYU, the football team was terrible so it is nice to see a resounding victory. I have also started working a few hours a week at my old job. They are short staffed, so I am working a few flexible hours while Tom stays home with Harper.

Harper seems to have gone through a growth spurt recently and now fits into some of her 6 month clothes. She is really into squealing when she gets excited and is still hating tummy time. She has gotten good enough at flipping over that within about two seconds of being on her tummy she rolls over onto her back. Harper is also getting better at sitting with minimal assistance (see photos below).

Here she is hanging out in her jumperoo. This is pretty typical of what she does (although she is getting better at playing with the toys). She usually has one hand in her mouth and the other one trying to get that blue toy into her mouth.
And finally, here is a baby picture of me with a picture of Harper (I still need to get a baby picture of Tom so we can compare them). I'm not sure how old I am in this photo, but I think we're around the same age. I am seeing more and more similarities with Tom as she gets older, but I still think she looks a lot like me.
