Winter Gear

We finally went out and got Hailey a winter coat, hat and gloves. Now she is all ready to play outside even when it is cold. I just can't help but laugh every time she puts her coat on, it reminds me of the little boy in A Christmas Story who can't put his arms down. Even though we are now prepared for more cold weather I really hope spring comes soon.

Social Butterfly

We have been a little busy around here lately with MOPS and play dates. We had two play dates for Hailey last week and then a friend of mommies came by to visit us as well. Mimi and Popi can to visit over the holiday weekend and we also got to hang out with Grandma and Grandpa. We have spent the last two days in the house while I get over this cold I have (for the second time this month). I can't wait till the weather warms up so we can play outside and not have to be all bundled up or stuck in the house. Hailey loves to be around other kids, she never cries when she goes to child care at the Y or at MOPS. Grandma and Grandpa came over last night to celebrate Grandma's birthday. Happy birthday Grandma!

Hat vs Bow

I have been waiting for Hailey to get enough hair so we could put a bow in it. I knew she probably wouldn't keep it in for long but I was excited about it anyway. Now that her hair is starting to get thicker I thought I would try to put one in. She kept it in for about 10 minutes which is longer than I thought it would last. I have to admit that I think she is more a hat kind of a girl rather than a bow kind of girl. What do you think?

A little bit of silliness

Hailey missed out on her chance to play in the snow this weekend due to a bad cough she has had and a runny nose. So after reading her friends blog (the walsers) she decided to make a little snow ritual of her own. Unfortunately it didn't work all we to was some rain, maybe next time. But we all thought she looked cute and she had us all in stitches. The funniest part was that she asked to put everything on, we honestly did not do this to her.

Big Girl

Where has the time gone. My little girl is not so little anymore. She is getting to be quite the little helper around the house. She even wanted to chip in and help paint her playroom. She tired and tried to climb the ladder so Brian and I took turns playing with Hailey while the other one painted. It made the whole process take a little longer than usual but we got it done and it looks great. We painted the dinning room and the powder room. Now that we have moved some of her toys we put her table and chairs in the kitchen and that is where she has her snack she looks so cute sitting in her big girl chair.

Ready for the Flood

Grandma came over last night for dinner and brought Hailey some rain boots. It worked because it is finally raining today. Now once it is finished raining we can go outside and jump in some puddles. Hailey loves to play outside so now she is all set to go outside anytime she wants.

Toys

Since we are still in the process of changing the dinning room to a play room we have yet to blow Hailey's castle up. In the mean time she has made her own ball pit and has been enjoying all her new toys. We have had fun dressing her up in all her new clothes. At least one person in our family will always be in fashion and not have to worry if their outfit is out of date. But even if it is she would still be the prettiest girl in the world.
