Stealing, Piercings and Walking

So I went to Old Navy the other day to get some warm clothes for Scott. Of course I had to swing by the baby section and see what they had over there. They had these cute shirts with different football teams on them for girls and I wanted a Seahawks one but they didn't have any so I left the section without knowing that Hailey decided that she wanted one of those shirts anyways. So she put it in my bag - it was her size and everything. Sneaky sneaky little girl - into clothes already...
Daddy wasn't happy that is was a Bears shirt but I didn't have the heart to take it back seeing as she picked it out herself. She proudly wears it in front of daddy - they love watching football together and I can just see when she gets older - she will pick a team Scott despises just to mess with him :)
Don't worry - we did pay for the shirt :)



So first she is stealing and then we decide to get her pierced. (Her ears only - of course) She did such a good job in the chair - she only cried for about a minute and then we gave her an orange julius and bought her a little stuffed animals that makes sounds when you squeeze it and she was fine. Scott has wanted to have this done since she was born. It took me 13 months to build up the strength to let her get them done. They are so cute though.

So we finally got a video of her walking. She has been walking for awhile but we couldn't get her on video because whenever she saw the camera she got too excited and just started crawling for it as fast a she could. She still enjoys walking on her knees and everyone that sees her do it thinks it is hilarious. She is such a big girl now!

Friends Like These

Our friends Wes and Susannah (and their son Mathias) recently moved to nearby Graham. We are so excited to have them close now. They are truly the most genuine, down to earth, caring and super fun people you could know. We have been hanging out here and there, when we can, and it has just been a blast. These are friends we will have for a long time. Good friends are hard to come by anymore and we are blessed to have them in our lives. Hailey just loves Mathias and constantly wants to hold him and play with him but he is a little shy and since she is not shy at all - I think she scares him a bit. I just love watching them play together.
We went to the pumpkin patch together and had so much fun. I have more pics of that but seemed to have misplaced them. I will have to post them later.

Hailey's B-Day Party!

We had a birthday party for Hailey with family and friends on Halloween. It was so much fun to watch her interact with everyone and see how she got all excited when she saw her presents. She loves Mickey/Minnie and so we decided to make it the theme. The cake was adorable - she loved it and she now plays with the little figurines non stop. I had to dress her up for a little while for Halloween so we could asnwer the door for trick or treaters. We made her a ballerina and she got so excited in the middle of getting ready she started to giggle and Scott got the perfect picture of her.

This was the super cute cake - I thought it was awesome!! Hailey loved it!

First we had pizza -YUM YUM!

Then we did presents FUN FUN!!

My parents sent this super cute grocery cart - we let her open it on her birthday while they were on speaker phone and could listen. As you can tell by the picture - she was super happy about her cart and groceries.

Typical child - she was more interested in the envelope than the actual present.

Daddy decided to help and she started to get the hang of ripping open the presents and she got really excited every time she saw there was something fun underneath all of the pretty paper.

THEN THERE WAS CAKE!!!!! She started out being a little prissy about touching the cake - then she thought she needed a fork. Then she finally decided that it was fun to play with the cake. She didn't actually get any into her mouth but she looked so cute!!

She was having fun and then all of the sudden she got all serious and was done. She did not like that she had to wait for mommy to clean all the blue frosting off of her before she could go play.

I can't believe my baby is ONE!! Such a big girl now - I will be excited to see how she does when we add a little brother or sister to the clan. (don't start asking - cuz I aint ready just yet)
