After that, we stayed a night in Philly while Derek and Donnie went to a Pearl Jam concert. The next day, we flew to Florida to visit Nonnie. Harper did really well on all the long car rides, sleeping the whole time.The plane ride and entire airport experience was pretty good too. Harper tends to get fussy right before she falls asleep, so about 30 minutes into the flight to Florida she fought me and started crying. It only lasted a minute or two, but felt like an eternity knowing that people on the plane were probably cursing her and I under their breath. She slept the rest of the flight and woke up as we were deboarding.
Florida was nice and HOT! It was such a perfect week staying with my Mom and having Harper spend so much time with her Nonnie. She hadn't seen her since the week she was born. Everyday, we stayed busy visiting Siesta Key Beach, Venice Beach, shopping and just relaxing in the pool. We will be going back for Thanksgiving and can't wait! Harper was a pumpkin for her first Halloween, just like her cousin Regan was for her first Halloween. She was a little cutie in her costume, but her hat was a little too small :)
On top of that busy month, Harper continues to learn new things and amaze Derek and I everyday. She's sitting up a lot more and really doesn't like to lay down. She is getting heavy at 15 pounds and 25 inches long! She has gotten great at grabbing things and holding onto them. Her focus is improving and she will follow your movements flawlessly. Her new trick the past week is blowing spit bubbles. It's constant fart sounds out of her cute little lips. I think she gets a kick out of it too, because we laugh and encourage it, of course! What will be the new thing next month?
