Mother's Day

Mother's day was really special this year. Steve was so wonderful and did whatever I wanted. The Binder Park Zoo is just about 15 minutes away from our house so for my birthday, Steve got me a season pass so Hailey and I can go with friends and family over the summer. I decided we should go on Mother's day. BAD idea. The zoo lets moms in free on mothers day. It was PACKED, and Hailey was NOT impressed...neither was Steve. Haha. Live and learn. :)

*Look closely at those thighs! I LOVE them. :)

Update

You may have noticed I haven't posted anything new in a while. Sorry about that. Things are going well here. Hailey is taking regular naps, days are getting warmer and longer, and we are staying busy with friends and family. I have also battled the flu, Hailey came down with a nasty cold, and I have been super busy preparing for school to be out. So there are my excuses.

I'll be posting a few times this week so check back for some more pictures. :)

Perfecting Her Rolls

Hailey isn't rolling over much, but she's still perfecting her rolls...fat rolls.
Check out those washboard abs...

...and those thighs!

Another Kind of Hoarder

I think I may have a problem. I might be a baby food/milk hoarder. Now that I have my own freezer for Hailey's "food" I can't stop making food and freezing milk.
It could be worse, right?

C'mon Summer!

A month from now we'll be celebrating summer at the pool! :)

1st Easter

Hailey's first Easter was a lot of fun. I was so excited to give her her very first Easter "bucket."


She wasn't as excited as I was, but she puts up with me pretty well.

Half Birthday Girl

Hailey's half birthday was last week. We celebrated by dressing her up in her tutu dress (thanks Vicky) and going swinging at Grandma and Grandpa's. She was a very happy girl!

Blue Eyed Girl

I never thought I would be the momma of a blue eyed girl, but I love them so so so much.

6 Months Old

Age: 6 Months

Weight: No idea. We'll find out Monday at her 6 month appointment.

Height: Again...no idea, but she is growing!

Size: Size 3 diapers. She's growing out of some of her 6-9 month clothes. I sure wish it would warm up here so she can wear her cute tanks and dresses before she grows out of them.

Hair: The hair on her ears is gone! She's getting a little more dark fuzz on her head.

Sleeping: Most nights Hailey goes to sleep on her own in her crib by 8 and sleeps until 4 or 5, eats, and then sleeps until 6 or 7. I can handle that. :)

Eating: The list of things our girl eats (and loves) is growing:
peas, carrots, squash (yellow and butternut), sweet potatoes, zuchini, apples, pears, peaches, prunes, parsnips. She is trying to get the hang of drinking water out of a sippy cup, but it isn't going so well.

Movement: A few days ago, Hailey finally started rolling from her belly to her back and rolled all over the room. Since then, she hasn't done it again!Oh well, we like it better when we can leave the room and know she's going to stay put.

Milestones: sitting for a bit longer (still not REALLY sitting)

Favorite toys/activities: the jumperoo, we put away the play mat and the swing

Dislikes: naps...we'll work on that more this summer
