Paige

Oh my little sweet pea!! I can't believe you will be THREE in a couple weeks. You bring so much joy into our lives. You are such a great helper and an awesome big sister. I love watching you and Hayden play together and listening to the cute things you say to her. It has been a busy and exciting past year. Here are some of the things that happened while you were two:

Dad graduated from school.

We moved.

Big Girl Bed.

You became a big sister.

First Happy Meal.

Potty Trained.

First Haircut.

First Dental Cleaning.

Learning your Letter Sounds.

Paige you are the cutest smartest little girl. You have taught me a lot about patience this past year, but we have survived. You are sassy and a little diva. You are my fashionista and 100% a daddys girl. You love to sing and dance. Your imagination is growing everyday and we never know what you are going to come up with next. 

WE LOVE YOU!

Hayden

This girl is 10 months old. She weighs a whopping 18.5 pounds. She has two bottom teeth and we really want that top one to pop through so someone won't be so grouchy :)

We are loving life and SO excited spring has finally come and the weather is getting warmer. It was such a long winter and its nice to get outside and let Paige burn off some energy since she has decided that she is too big for naps.

More to come I promise. We just got back from the beach in South Carolina and I will put those pictures up  but Hayden is crawling up the stairs so I better run....

Eight Months

This little stinker thinks she can grow up on me! She has so much personality packed into that tiny body. Now that she has two teeth that have broke through, she thinks she can eat what ever we are eating and will crawl as fast as possible to get come and get some. I don't want to jinx it but she has slept through the night this week. It is so nice to not have a personal alarm clock waking Ryan (and me) up at five am every morning. 

  

Hayden really is the sweetest baby.

I wish I could keep you little forever but I love watching you grow Hayden! You sure are our little munchkin.

Where Did My Babies Go?

I can't believe how fast time is going and how quickly things change around here. Ryan is half way done with his first year of residency. Paige is going to be THREE in May and Hayden has her first birthday in June. 

Little sweet Hayden is growing so fast. She is now a crawler and can be found under the table, in the bedroom or her favorite in the bathroom between the wall and the toilet. Lets just say we try to keep that room as clean as possible. She loves following Paige around and trying to get whatever toy she has. We are trying to teach Paige to share or trade toys with Hayden so she can get her toy back. Hayden is now self feeding herself and can be found trying to pick up whatever crumbs we leave behind.

Oh dear Paige.... I can't believe how grown up you are getting. We are trying to potty train Paige and we are about 70% of the way there. In the last two weeks she has had maybe five accidents. She hardly has them because I am constantly asking/telling her to sit on the toilet. I really need to let her have those accidents so she learns that they are gross and will sit by herself without being told. We are all going a little crazy being stuck in the house because of potty training and because of the freezing temperatures we are having. I can't wait until it stays above zero. 

 

There is my little update. I just wanted to remember what Hayden was like at seven months cause next week she will be EIGHT months old :(

The End of 2013

2013 was quite the exciting year! We found out we were having another girl. We found out where Ryan would be doing his residency. Ryan and I went on a couples vacation. Paige turned two. Ryan graduated. We moved back to Michigan. We had Hayden. Ryan started residency... and life just kept on getting busier. 

I feel bad for poor Hayden sometimes. I was so organized with Paige. I had a post and picture every month for her first year and for Hayden I have been slacking. I use my phone more than I use my camera so I am going to try to do better and document our little cutie.

Hayden is now SEVEN months old and I feel like yesterday she was born. Where did time go? She just started crawling and nothing is safe anymore. If she sees Paige leave her snack on the ground or my phone she gets all excited and makes her way over to it. She is FINALLY sleeping through the night and it is amazing! She loves fruit and tolerates veggies. She loves crackers and bread. She weighs 16lbs and is 26 inches long. And she is bald and beautiful. She is quiet and happy. 

  

  

  

  

Hope you enjoyed looking back at the last couple months. We were busy making memories! Hope your holidays were wonderful and here is to 2014. Hayden I am going to try to be better and capture all your moments!
