Relaxing in the tub

Hailey can relax anywhere! During her bath she likes to kick back and relax.

Easter

We had a great Easter this year. Hailey really got into the spirit of things and searched the front yard for eggs with cousins Grace, Hannah and Zach. Her favorite part of the Easter basket was the grass and she strung it all over the house!

New Washer

Who knew that our new washer would keep Hailey mesmorized. We wash her diapers in hot water and she loves to put her face up to the little "window" and feel the warmth. She screams out "bubbles!" repeatedly during the wash cycle. She even sat in front of the washer with her snack-cup and watched the clothes go round and round.

Snow!!!!

A few weeks ago we had a very small and very short lived snow storm. Hailey loved it! We went outside and the neighbor's grandaughter was playing outside too. The girls had a fabulous time together and when it was time to go inside Hailey threw a fit. Later in the afternoon we got another short round of snow, Hailey watched it from the window. When Ryan got home we went outside for more playtime.

Sisters

We had a great trip to Sisters! Hailey loved her rubber boots and refused to take them off even for bath time! On Saturday we visited with Cole. Hailey ran around the park next to his house and played with Hank. We tried to visit the Deschutes Brewery but Turtle was done! No tour for us...maybe next time. She also got to eat donuts for breakfast, YUM! On the way home she was wiggling so much in the carseat that her hair started to stand up from all of the static.

Skinned Knees

Hailey got her first skinned knee, times 2. Poor thing! We were walking across the street to get the mail and she thought it would be great to run...and then the obvious happened. OUCH! She only cried for a minute. Tonight (1 day later) she has little bruises on her palms from where her hands hit the pavement :(

Waiting for Daddy

Ryan has been working a lot of night shifts over the last few months. It is very rare for Hailey to see him in the evening. On this particular night, I knew Ryan was going to be home early. I saw the van go past the front window and told Hailey, "Daddy's home!" She ran to her little windo by the front door and waited. She was so excited to see his face come around the corner.
