Blogging via Photos

So it's been awhile... and truthfully the only reason I'm blogging now is that I am putting off the millions of things I need to do while the girls nap...at the same time... ah, that sentence somehow makes me sigh with relief and reach for a piece of chocolate.... ok back to the project at hand. It's about time for an update, and what better than a photo update right? So here goes :)

Leilah has had a..... rough month or so and at the climax of a truly sad day I need a onesie... Hallie the ever helper ran and got this one...

Priceless right? Especially since it was her first time wearing it. Hallie had some insight I would say.

We also just celebrated Hayden's birthday (love ya babe!) We when swimming :)


Hayden had to study a bit so we made his birthday dinner the next day, Sunday... I've been expanding my horizons so we had filet mignon with melted goat cheese and a balsamic syrup.. Delicious! How ever the steak was still mooing... Hayden said he didn't mind. And of course we had to add cheetos to the mix.

Leilah turned 5 months old too!

Right now Leilah loves to grab onto things, hold things, and suck on EVERYTHING!


Hallie is becoming SOOO independent! She is growing up SO fast! Right now she is very into dressing herself... it's pretty much adorable and fills my camera all the time. Here's one of my favorite dress yourself moments. Notice the long sleeve cordaroy dress, too too small halloween costume "jacket" and the easter basket purse as a finishing touch. And did I mention it was 98 degrees that day?

Hallie also recently (yesterday) got her first hair cut (i couldn't bring myself to cut it once it started to grow!) I promise they did actually cut it....
Outside Little Chops
Starting the cut...

Calmed down due to bribery with skittles and barbie movie

After cut with wet hair

After cut with her adorable natural curls

So that was an adventure, probably not to be repeated any time soon....
Life is good :) Hayden is in school and loving it, we are just missing seeing him. I'm being a busy mom and we're so happy it's cool enough to enjoy walks, parks, and just being outside ;) So here is just a bit of random cuteness.

Wow! I can't believe how big Leilah is. It's crazy how fast they grow. It sounds like you guys are having some good times in Arizona, glad Hayden is enjoying school. It will be fun to see you guys next month.

Yea for an update! I can't believe that Leilah is so big and we have still never seen her. I love the pictures in the crabby onesie.
I thought WE waited a long time before Brooklyns first haircut. :)

Fantastic pics. It reminds me that I should probably put some pics up for the girls of Oliver since he won't look at the camera when we have you on video chat. We loved the pictures, jeff and Britt are here also and so the room was rolling with laughter at the choice of dresses and the choice of onsies. Love you and hope to see you soon.

I get thrilled with any update so just keep em comin! Leilah is so cute! Even if she is crabby she is silly cute being crabby! Happy Birthday Hayden, super jealous that you guys get to go swimming whenever in the blazing sun! Congrats on the haircut Hallie! Everytime I talk to Addi about getting one she promptly tells me that haircuts are just for dogs. We still havent given her one yet! Im glad youre doing so good!
