What we have been up to

Hailey still loves to read. We go to the library often to get new and interesting books for her to read.Right now she likes to wear her coat when she is in the house. Here is a picture of her the other day when she climbed up on the couch by herself with a book.






We love having our back yard fenced in now all we need are some good outdoor toys so she can run around and play in the yard. She has her picnic table and her house that she likes to play in but I know she would like to have some more toys. We always take bubbles out there for her to chase and then there are the neighbors dogs that she likes to watch. If we are out and the dogs aren't there she keeps asking for them and watching for them to come out.
Some friends of ours had a gator that their son outgrew so they gave it to Hailey. She likes to ride it but hasn't gotten the steering down yet. The tires are a little worn so it won't go in the grass. She kept wanting to ride in the back but we didn't think it was a good idea so she asked her daddy to sit in the back with her.






We spent some of the week and the weekend at mimi and popi's house. Hailey had a blast. We went shopping and she got to swing and play in the pool. Her favorite was playing with the cat and giving her treats. I swear every five minutes she would grab someone and take them to go to the garage and show her the cat.

On Saturday we picked up uncle jason and auntie allison and went to the zoo. We took the stroller but she never once got in it, although it was nice to have to carry everything else. The first thing we saw were the zebras. Her favorite part of the day was seeing the monkeys. Everywhere else we went she would look and say "no monkeys in there", or she would say "where are the monkeys?" it was too cute.

The whole time we were at mimi and popi's house she got up really early and didn't take long naps but she was always full of energy. We think that along with the zoo finally took it's toll on her because we had to wake her up Sunday morning around 9. She fell out of her bed Saturday night so she ended up sleeping with us and while she got a good night sleep I can't say the same for me or Brian. It was not easy getting her up,as you can see from the picture she was out like a light.

We find out on Wednesday if the new addition to our family is a boy or a girl so check back for the exciting announcement.
