Hailey is one!!!

It's one thing watching my three oldest kids go through milestones and birthdays, but it's a little sad to see my baby grow-up. She's supposed to stay little so I'll always have a baby! This little girl has got so much personality, and she is SO happy. She's always got the biggest smile on her face.

She's getting more and more independent everyday, which is good, because we all know what little mama's girls I've got.

She loves to be read to. I'm constantly finding these two in the little pink chair with lots of books.

I love her morning face! She gets so excited to eat in the mornings, especially if it's yogurt and toast day.

We had a little party for her after one of Luke's Tball games a couple of weeks ago (man, I am behind!)

Pretty girl

Ohhh, the excitement!

Grandma Barb was trying to show her how to blow out the candle, in the end all three older kids took care of it.

I took her to her 1 year check up...
22 lbs. 8 oz. - 75%
30.5 inches -90%
The Dr. said she was the size of an average 18 mo. old. She's wearing 24 mos. clothes, which is what Carly wore last summer right before she turned 2. I'm sure in no time they'll be able to share the same clothes!

Haircut

Carly's hair has finally gotten long enough for a haircut. Since Abigail took the liberty of cutting it last fall, I have been triming it little bits at a time to make it look presentable. I wanted it to grow out so badly, that I never wanted to cut too much off. Last week I realized it was too stringy and uneven, so I decided to give her a little bob. When it grows another half inch, I'll cut it again to make it more of an a-line, and then I will let it grow and grow. She wants to be Rapunzel. She's such a cheese for pictures, I just thought these ones were cute.

I asked Abigail to keep Hailey entertained while I cut Carly's hair.
