Halloween

Hailey was Abby Cadabby for Halloween this year, (2010).  One thing I love about our neighborhood is that they really do a lot for the kids.  Every year they have a big block party at one of the cul-de-sacs.  They have hot dogs, chips, drinks and a costume contest.  I didn't get any pictures while we were there, not really sure why, not we didn't.  There was a little girl dresses up like the old man from Up, house with balloons, walker and all!  It was great.    

Headed to the party!

Hailey's best friend Olive and her parents met us there.  Olive was Tinkerbell. 

My sweet pumpkin!!!

Saying goodbye after a great night!

Pumpkin painting and torture by pumpkin

This year we let Hailey paint her pumpkins.  We set her up outside on a gorgeous afternoon. 

While Hailey was painting her pumpkins...I decided to try and copy an adorable photo I saw of a baby in a pumpkin.  I cut the top off the pumpkin and scooped all the guts out.  I was ready to go!  Since Hannah was still so little, I needed Stephen's help holding her head up.  I guess the baby in the picture I saw was a tad bit older.  As we put Hannah in the pumpkin, she started to wail.  Stephen couldn't stand hearing her cry for long and thought I was being mean.  I disagree!!  A picture is worth a 1000 words...

Look at that sweet little face!!! 

After the pumpkin shoots, I took Hannah inside to clean the pumpkin off of her.  See, she doesn't seem to mind that she was just tortured by a pumpkin. 

Pumpkin patch 2010

It seems odd to me to be posted pumpkin patch pictures in March!!!  But that's just how it is.

We took the kiddos to a pumpkin patch by the house.  We didn't go at a very good time though.  The area they had set up for pictures was directly in the sun so everyone is squinting in the pictures.  We still had fun though.  Hailey was running around squealing.  She had so much fun. 

1st playdate for Hannah

A very good friend of mine had her 1st baby the day after Hannah was born.  Since they were born so close together, neither one of us were able to see the other while we were in the hospital.  So we had Cherilyn and little Alexa over for our 1st playdate and meeting.  They are soooo cute!!! I'm excited to watch these two cuties grow up together!!

This picture just makes me laugh so I thought I'd share.

So tiny!!! 

Real life Benjamin Button - 1 month photo shoot

Each month I am taking a picture of Hannah with the frog that Hailey picked out for her while I was pregnant.  Well this is her 1 month photo shoot only, she looks like she's an 80 year man.  Most babies lose their hair when they're little and have bald spots...however my sweet little princess lost the hair on the TOP of her head!!!  She looks like a little old man!
