New Year - New Blog!

This year, as one of the many steps I am taking to de-clutter life at the Larsons, our 2! blogs will combine. Going forward, please visit http://piperproject.blogspot.com/ for updates and photos of Piper.

Happy New Year!!

Merry Christmas!

This is, by far, my absolute favorite time of year. The lights, the carolers, the smell of snow in the air. Piper seems to love it too - below is a quick snapshot of her playing in the first Chicago snow.

Birthday Party!

We celebrated Piper's 1st birthday on Saturday! It was a wonderful party. Thanks to Claudine's amazing photography skills, the pictures are to DIE for. Below are some of my favorite's from the big day!

Happy Halloween!

Halloween Parade

On Sunday, we took Piper to a little neighborhood Halloween parade. She got to show off her great chick costume, and made a lot of friends on the street. Levi and I were so proud to see her walking down the sidewalk. I will post more photos after Halloween, but here's a quick photo of our chickadee.

Pumpkin Patch!

Today we took Piper to her first pumpkin patch to pick out the perfect jack o lantern for her first halloween! We had a great time - she loves the animals, and all the different pumpkins. Some pictures are below!

Piper Walks!

Our little Miss P has been taking steps here and there for a few weeks now. As we all know, capturing baby steps on video is almost impossible - but here's a quick peak of her cruising around the living room!
