Harper's school celebration

Today Harper got to celebrate her birthday at school.  It's a really big deal to the kids because they get to decorate their birthday crown to wear all day.  I had my friend, Christy, make cookies and they turned out SO cute!  If you ever need special cookies or cupcakes, she is the one to go to!  Another secret about birthdays at school you may or may not know: teachers hate when you bring cupcakes to school because they are so messy.  This was the case when I was teaching and was confirmed by a comment Harper's teacher made to me today.  Cookies are much easier on everyone. :-)


Harper was excited about her cupcake cookies and was so cute when everyone was singing happy birthday to her.  She gets sort of nervous when she's the center of attention (which is so unlike her personality) and does this funny little thing where she twists her tongue.  


After the kids enjoyed their cookies they danced and sang to Harper's picks: Wheels on the Bus, Shake Your Wiggles Out, and Animal Action.

Happy Birthday to Harper! I love her face, Cohen does this EXACT same thing and they seem to have similar personalities. Cute girls!

So tickled to see the Birthday Girl wearing some JEANS on her big party day. I know that girl loves her some jeans.

And I am so glad you got that picture of her twisting her sweet little tongue. Those are the types of things we might forget if it weren't for these blogs!
