Sledding. Part 2

Hailey got a new sled for Christmas from her Grandma and Grandpa Broyles. It's much nicer than the other one we had. It's padded and has sides so she doesn't fall over. Moose loved chasing the sled around the yard.





Aren't they the cutest? Moose sure does love Hailey.


Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for the sled! Hopefully we have more snow soon so we can play again.

Visiting Santa

Last year's Santa visit was wonderful. We put Hailey on the big guy's lap, and she just stared up at him. This year, was a bit different.
It was late...she didn't feel good...I should've known better. Hailey will typically let anybody hold her, but not Santa, I guess.
Here's how it went:
We got there and I could tell she wasn't going to be happy with it. So we tried taking a picture of the three of us. (I was NOT ready to be in this picture.) That didn't go so well so we decided to let her warm up to the big guy and play with the trains that were near him. She thought that was pretty cool.

Then, we tried again. BIG FAT FAIL.



So I told Santa that Hailey LOVES ipads and he let her see his. Yes, Santa has an ipad.



But all she wanted was her dad because mom just wasn't helping. :)


Maybe next year. Then, she'll be old enough to bribe.

Oh Christmas Tree

We put our tree up at the beginning of December, but I haven't had a chance to post anything. Hailey is currently sleeping in so I thought I would try to post before she wakes up.


Last year we picked an already cut tree because we had a one month old with us, but this year we cut our own. It was a lot of fun dragging Hailey around to find the perfect tree.

She also had a lot of fun decorating.

Let It Snow!

Last week we got 6 inches of snow! We couldn't wait take Hailey out to sled.




She was pretty bundled up. I think she would've liked it better if she could move.



Eating the snow was pretty fun.


Hanging out with her Dad was the best part!

Smoothie Time!




This girl loves smoothies!



All you have to do is blend up some frozen fruit (from summer picking), throw in an overripe banana (Steve only likes 'em when they are green), and add milk. I've even been able to use baby food cubes that didn't get eaten (she's OVER baby food now). She drinks these suckers up like they're candy!

Getting INto Stuff

Hailey loves to sit IN, ON, and UNDER things. You never know where you'll find her. She sits in the kitchen drawers, under tables, and on laptops. Recently she found the newspaper basket that sits near the fireplace. She loves to pull the newspapers out, sit in the basket, and "read." The picture below makes me laugh every time. Seriously, she looks like her daddy!





What do you think, should we send this one in to the paper?

Our Little Driver











Hailey is OBSESSED with driving stuff. Her favorite thing to do (other than eat) is to stand on a driver's seat and hold the steering wheel. A few weeks ago Steve was moving some rocks for landscaping and Hailey got to help.
Hailey has also "driven" a tractor and a gator. She's truly a farm girl at heart.

Birthday Girl!






I can't believe Hailey's party was a month ago! We had a great time!











I loved her decorations. We didn't do much of a theme, but it was very pink. :) Here are some of the decorations.
*Check out the new kitchen! :) We love it!
