Random shots of Hailey

Bath time got a little adventurous when dad was playing with different hat styles.



Then she told dad what she thought about that.......


Ok, calm down we wont put silly hats on you anymore!

Saturday was fun with the discovery of her first tooth! We tried to get a picture but I think it is at the stage where you can feel it but you cant quite see it yet. But here is our best attempt, and the only one where her tongue wasn't sticking out.

She's a walking fool! Hailey is getting so good at walking around the living room - and if she is chasing a cat she can really scoot! She has the model walk down and puts one foot in front of the other.

Just chill'n in my seat. Wait'n for some grub.

MMMM tastes good!

Happy Halloween

Hailey was a lion for her first Halloween. She was a little less than excited about the whole situation. It didnt really start off too well because we had to wake her up from a late nap - that never goes well. Then we tried to take pictures and Hailey didnt want to cooperate, she wanted to wiggle and squirm and look at the kitties. We did manage to go to our neighbor friends and she was pretty good. She got hugs from baby James and played with a balloon at Collin's house. She was a perfect little lion.

GAP Casting Call

Every year GAP has a casting call for new baby faces. Well of course Hailey is the cutest kid ever, so naturally we entered her. Hailey's good friends Ethan and James entered too, but they are boys so they have to duke it out in thier own catagory. Here are a few of the images that we entered. We also entered the one of Hailey in the Pot from camping.

Winter Hat

Hailey prefered this hat to her striped hat. Just kidding, mom and dad are so cruel!

Good morning world!

The Anatomy of a Family Photo

For those of you with infants you can feel our pain - for those of you without just wait! It was a beautiful fall day and the sun was out and it was just perfect for a family picture. The tripod was up and Ryan had scattered leaves and arranged the pumpkins just so, the stage was set. Well we forgot to check to with Hailey to see if it was in itinery for the day. We soon learned that it wasnt he plan to pose for the camera today. Here are a few shots that we did take, but none are going on the Christmas card this year!

Here are a few of just the munchkin doing her own thing.

And that's a wrap......

Pumpkin Patch

On Saturday we took Hailey up to Greenbluff to pick out her first pumpkin. We found big ones and medium ones and Hailey sized pumpkins too! Our friends James, Rachel and baby James were there too.

Lazy Sunday

Hailey was really getting into the game and nearly fell off her chair with excitement! Well she did fall off her chair, but only because she is still learning to sit up. No worries - we caught her! If you can see the TV screen you will see that the guide is on and she is choosing between Football and Nascar. Wow - what a choice!

Happy Baby....

Imagine this, two pictures of Hailey smiling on the same day! Just dont pay attention to the goopy eye and runny nose, or the drool! Hailey has her first cold, her mom and dad have cold's too now. She is so strong now and trying to wipe the nose of a squirming baby should win you an athletic medal.

Daddy's Outfit

The first outfit Ryan bought Hailey was not pink. It seemed like it would never fit Hailey and always be way too big. Well she finally fits in it! You look cute in everything - pink or not!

Mmmmm Green Beans

Hailey has now had Rice Cereal, sweet potatoes and now green beans. She did manage to eat most of it and not spit it all over the kitchen. She was a hungry girl tonight and ate rice cereal, beans & 5 oz. of formula - our little growing munchkin!

Huckleberry Camping '07

Hailey's first camping trip was to the family's annual Huckleberry picking trip. She had lots of fun with lots of family! Last year we had around 80 family members, this year was a lot less with around 50 or so. While mom and dad roughed it in the tent Hailey lived it up in the RV with Grandma and Grandpa Walter. Even Grandma Vicki was there to help celebrate Ryan's 30th Birthday. Even her Uncle Cam made it back from the fires in Montana to spend some quality time with Hailey - although Hailey wasnt so sure about her uncle Cam's new look.
