What does a chicken say?

This makes me think of a certain sister of mine. One who is related to me biologically and has a strange fascination with CHICKENS!!!

Happy Easter from Team Y!

Have we changed? :)

Hailey's 1 year pictures!

Hailey's One

Yes, it was almost two weeks ago but now I have some time. We went to the doctors Monday and Hailey is 19.4 lbs, 30", and 27 centimeters around her head. Putting her in the 25th, 75th, and 90th percentiles respectively. She has passed all of her milestones. I will try to tell you only the new things she can do since last month. She can blow kisses, tickle you, (and herself, strange child) she can flap her "wings" and bock like a chicken, and she is walking fairly well. Her new words are clock, push it, book, banana, bath, the bug, (daddy's nickname for her) no, yes, baby, and button. (a lot of B words but they are obviously different, like Banana is "nana") She is getting so big. She is also way more fun now that she is mobile. Alex and I feel truly blessed to have her in our lives. Happy Birthday Hailey!

Happy Birthday Hailey!

We went to Disneyland with Alex's Brother and Sister-in-law. We had a lot of fun. HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY HAILEY! I will do a more birthdayish blog when I am not so tired.

She's Walking!

Last week for family home evening Hailey decided she would do some walking. This is the best video we could get. She's pretty well balanced because she's been standing on her own for a couple of months now. She only walks about 8 steps or so before she decides she likes crawling more and kneels down to crawl.

Disneyland!

A week ago Hailey and I went to Disneyland in the morning with Charlye and Denise so that we could see the new stuff on Small World. First of all, Hailey and I always have the best time when we go with any Gause's because they are about as AWEsome as it gets. Second of all, Small World's changes are great! It actually makes it worth going on once a year instead of once a decade. Seriously, for those of you who live close, go and keep your eyes peeled.

Hailey loved the pooh ride:

Disneyland always makes Hailey tired:

We didn't stay too long, we wanted to get home to see daddy:

And somehow Denise didn't end up in any pictures. Maybe next time. I need to remember to take more pictures and of more interesting parts of our days. We have a busy week ahead, so maybe we'll get some really great pictures up soon! Until then here is more cuteness than your face can handle:
