Going to the Zoo!

Saturday we finally bought Hailey her birthday present, San Diego Zoo passes. It was a couple of months late, but she's one, she'll never know. :P We had so much fun! My parents, Steven, and Amanda came with us. Hailey loved it!

Her only tearful moment of the day was caught on camera, and being the bad mom I am, it makes me laugh. "But mom, I don't want to have fun!"

She really loved the koi pond.

This is a reenactment of a childhood picture Steven and I took with the Beardwoods.

Hailey loved the petting zoo.

She especially loved exhibits like this one:

We really had a great day.

It's a good thing we got passes though because that zoo is huge and we didn't get to very much of it. Mostly because the day way spent like this:

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.
