My mom and her husband hosted a birthday BBQ for Harper and we had the best time seeing our friends and many of my mom’s friends.
The party was really fun and it was special to see some of my closest friends meet my sweet girl for the very first time.
Harper is in a phase right now where she has a tougher time warming up to new people and needs some time before someone can hold her and before she will be her usual playful self. About 1.5-2 hours into the party she went down for a nap after eating and when she woke up she was smiling, laughing, clapping and running around all over the place. I think it’s a lot for her to be in a new place with lots of new people and a different routine so I’m happy she is adjusting well even when she gets a little shy when meeting new people.
Harper LOVES my mom’s backyard and porch so she hung out while everything was set up for the party…
Then Harper played some tunes on the radio…
the cake balls that Maja made…they were amazing!
Then we took selfies…

It was the first time Harper met Maja’s sweet Doutzen who is five months old! Her expression sure doesn’t say it, but they got along great!

Have a great week!
Looks like such a fun BBQ! And I'm super jealous Harper will nap at a party and not in your own home! 😛 Where are her little Keds-like shoes from? Super cute!

Harper is such an adorable little girl. I wish blogs/the internet had been widely available when mine were born, Harper (& you &!family) will have such a precious document of her life through this blog. Cherish every moment, my eldest is off to uni in 4 months and my daughter is preparing for her end of high school prom … it goes by so quickly xxx
So sweet, love her chambray!
So sweet!! Glad yall are having such a fun time!! We always have a hard time getting my daughter to sleep when away (she is typically an amazing sleeper except for traveling). How are yall managing? I assume since yall flew you weren't able to over do it with the packing… just looking for some suggestions.
It's so, so nice when close family and friends can get together for a little gathering. Looks like you had a great BBQ! Cheers, V!

Aww, love her little denim hat! So cute!
Harper looks so adorable in her floppy hat! You, your mom, and Harper all look alike (of course). Beautiful girls indeed!
What a fun time! I love Harper's hat, and the food looked so good.
