Weekend Visitors

First of all, Harrison needs to send a little shout out to his Uncle Andy who babysat him for a day. Harrison also wants to apologize for making Uncle Andy's first diaper change quite the experience!

Our first weekend visitors where all the way from Texas! My good friend from childhood Krissy and her husband Ned stopped by to meet Harrison.

The weekend also brought my good college friend Chrissy and her fiance James. Harrison was mezmorized by the sparkly new hardware on Chrissy left hand!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving from our three "15 pound turkeys"!

Weekend with Mommy

Harrison and I had some quality time this weekend while Matt was "hunting". (I put it in quotes because although he claims they walked fields all day on Saturday, again this year he didn't come home with any birds.) Harrison hung out with Maggie Hanson (pictured above) and Isla Miller on Friday night. From Harrison's look, I am thinking he might be a little intimidated by cute, fast talking older girls!

Most of Matt's family is from Iowa but some went to the U of M and now live in Minnesota. The rivalry was is full force this weekend for the Iowa/Minnesota football game. Although H and I skipped the game, we enjoyed a pre-game tailgating party at Matt's counsin Molly's house. Despite Harrison sporting his Maroon and Gold in support of the Gophers, they suffered a terrible loss to Iowa.

A milestone this weekend...Harrison started to cut his first tooth. So far he has handled it pretty well!

Harrison's new buddy!

My college roommate Danielle brought Harrison's new playmate into the world on Tuesday. Bauer Tabatt weighed in at 9 lbs 12 oz! Mom and baby are doing great!

Social Butterfly

Harrison had another busy weekend. Friday started out with a trip to see Dr. Carlson for his four month check-up. He weighed in at 15 lbs 3 ozs (50-75% tile) and is 24 inched long (15-25% tile). Even though Dr. Carlson didn't actually say the words, she obviously thought that Harrison is very advanced since he is meeting all developmental milestones! Harrison thought if he looked really cute and smiled the whole time, maybe Dr. Carlson would forget about the four shots he was supposed to get. No such luck but thankfully he took them like a champ!

Friday evening brought friends Mike and Jessice for dinner. Although Harrison was up past his bed time, he enjoyed falling asleep in Jessica's arms. He is already charming all the pretty ladies!

After dinner and games with friends on Saturday evening, the weekend was capped off at Grandma and Grandpa Lichty's house for dinner on Sunday. We celebrated dad and grandpa's birthdays!

Just a random shot of Harrison modeling his cowboy boots!

Oh what a night...

So this blog is supposed to be about Harrison but the above picture is from my college reunion on Saturday night. It was fun to connect with friends I don't see enough and people I haven't seen in a long time! While I was out having fun with my fellow UST alums, Matt and Harrison had a good time at home. Harrison has decided his current favorite song is "Jump Around"...

What a week...

Harrison started his week out wearing his purple pride and watching the Vikings beat the Houston Texans. We had a great time watching the game with Matt's cousins Molly and Katie and their husbands Jason and Tom. Molly's daughter Maddie was a good helper with Harrison but Reilly wasn't quite sure what to think about him.

Tuesday, Harrison waited in line with us to vote. In 18 years he'll be the swing vote in our family.
