Introducing

Willow Christine Harriot

Friends, she is going to be a Harriot!

Typically we would wait until adoption day, but we all know at this point that nothing is ever typical.

We have been given permission as her future named adoptive parents to share her images with you and I am over the moon that we finally get to say her name and share her expressive face with each and every one of you!

I have been going over how to introduce her perfectly to all of you for over 2.5 years now.

Today I have landed on the way that she deserved to be announced to the world.

From day 1.

So here is our sweetest "new" addition at her 1 month photoshoot!

She is absolute PERFECTION.

Every tiny detail.

I just hold her head and breathe her in on a daily basis because we are SO incredibly blessed to get to call her our daughter.

 

Her sisters are so excited to welcome her to our family and couldn't be more smitten.

 

Here's to forever sweet girl.

 

Our sweet Willow.

Fathers Day Win

Scarlett: No. I'm hungry.

Paul: Oh hey Hungry, I'm Dad.

Scarlett: YOU KNOW I DON'T LIKE IT WHEN YOU SAY THOSE SILLY DAD JOKES DAD.

Fathers day success.

Hello Summer

The girls did it!

7th grade, 4th grade, and 2nd grade had NOTHING on them!

Plus these glow ups are making this Mama heart so proud.

First/Last

 Lily headed off to her first sleepover of the summer and we took the rest of the family to the park for some fun and fetch.

FN2187 (Fin) loved chasing the ball own and bringing it back to me, even though I wasn't the one throwing it for him.

 Addison has her heart set on being a veterinarian when she gets older and has always been the first kiddo to help with our pets.

These two turkeys instantly found a dirt pile and bathed in it.

Ring Around the Rosie was sung on repeat.

This good doggo was exhausted and content!

So we headed to the playground across the park and let the kids finish of their energy reserves for the day!

Part of #LittleWisps physical therapy is learning to climb steps and balance, so her physical therapist prescribed lots of park time.

We think we can handle that!

Her first ride on the big girl swing was gentle and slow but she kept shouting "I SIT I SWING!" and was so proud of herself.

We're super proud of her too.

2018 in a Cell

 As if I haven't said it enough...

I take too many photos.

Here's my cell phone dump from 2018!

What. A. YEAR.
