I know I promised pictures but...

This past month has been amazing and crazy and sad all wrapped up in a mini mouse costume.  I am just so thankful for a loving husband and a daughter for a best friend.  I am thankful for answered prayers and unanswered prayer.  I am thankful for brothers that love me and listen to me talk out my problems.  I am thankful for my in-laws and their support.  I am thankful for my parents that help me with Hadleigh and her special bond with my dad.

I have so much to share and don't know how to say it! I guess i should post pictures first and then write some explanations. Until next time.

Pictures are coming.... after this post!

Time has flown by and I just haven't made the time to blog.  If you follow me on facebook you know that our life has been pretty busy and on the "slow days" I just sit and enjoy Hadleigh and our dogs.  She is becoming a very talkative little being.  She is who she is and it's amazing to watch her.  We have been contemplating putting her in preschool (missed it) and then starting her in dance and gymnastics (still debating cost) because she is so active.  Winter is not a good season for her.  It means no parks, no swimming at Jensen's Grove, no walks, no playing outside all day in a dress, no picnics..... she get house fever!! I am thinking we are going to do swimming lessons again in January just to get her to be stronger and more confident. 

Her latest thing to do is play with the "Pony's" we got her for her birthday.  She loves My Little Pony and she plays with them all day singing the songs from the movies we have.  She can name them and their cutie marks and say if they fly or walk or have magic.  She pretends to be a horse and gallops all over the house.  She is so funny!

She is smart.  I know every mom says that. But I think it's true for all kids.  Their knowledge and ability to understand things that we thought they couldn't is a miracle.  She counts to 20 and sings her ABC's, although she does miss some letters and says some wrong but she's close enough!  She knows all the types of makeup i put on my face- blush, eyeshadow,mascara, lip gloss, lipstick, powder.  She can name some shapes and some colors.  I think sometimes she says orange for other colors just because she likes to say orange.  She also can name farm animals, zoo animals and some dinosaurs. 

She is also girly with a slight tomboy twist.  She loves pink, dresses, painted nails, and high heels.  She likes to play catch, basketball and loves watching my baby brother play football.  She will watch games on T.V. with her dad and knows where they have to run or when to pass the ball.  She is a great combo I think.  I am excited to put in some classes/ teams when we figure out our finances.

Our house has been hit a couple times with the sickies!! In September we all got sick, then she had double ear infections, then I got flu sick, then she got sick again.  Luckily Jordon has been pretty healthy and able to work.  We are trying to find our energy again and get back in the swing of things.  We do better on the days Jordon has off.  We depend on him to help us get out of the house and get our errands done. 

I will post pictures soon of all the events of the last 6 months.  There have been alot!!
