She is walking and loving the wonderful weather!!!




Well she is finally walking!! She started probably about a week ago really going at it. Before that she would take a few steps and go to crawling. Don't get me wrong she still crawls all over the place, but she will take off and just start walking on her own. She does very well, not a pro yet but does good!! When she is walking outside and loses her balance and falls she starts to crawl but its on either rougher concrete or gravel, so her poor little knees. Now she will either get up or do the bear crawl , using her arms and legs and butt in the air. Its kinda funny!!!





Hayleigh, the kids I babysitt, and myself have been enjoying this wonderful weather we have had this week by playing outside a lot!! We go out in the am for a bit, come in each lunch and nap, and then back out in the afternoon. Plus sometimes Hayleigh and I will come back inside and I will feed her supper after all the kids leave and then back outside we go. I've told you several times this child loves to be outside. Now she has tried to eat numerous rocks and has eaten some sand/dirt and seeds from the trees. She won't stop.

Happy Mother's Day

I love to look back at pictures and see how time can change us all. Well here Hayleigh and I were on my 1st Mothers Day (about 1 mth old) and then here we are now (almost 13mths old). I have to say I think I look a little better in the second picture. Of course Hayleigh was and still is the most beutiful baby that we could have ever been blessed with!! I had a pretty good Mother's Day. I got up and went to church with my mom and grandma and then met the fam for breakfast and then we came home for a little bit and relaxed and played outside. Then we went to nana and papa's house for a cookout and enjoyed more outside time. It was a nice relaxing day!! But I really think us mommies (and Mr. Moms) should have a day once a month!!

I hope all mommies out there had a wonderful day!!!

Our Weekend

Happy Birthday to Hayleigh's cousin Coehen, he is 2 today, but we had his bday party yesterday. What a beutiful day it was. We didn't really do much on Saturday. Hayleigh and I went to Dekalb with Karshon and her girls to Gabbi's therapy and I did my grocery run while that was happening. Then Dave and I enjoyed a couple hours out on the town while Hayleigh was at Grandma Sharon's and Grandpa Tom's house. We were literally out for 2 hours and on our way to get Hayleigh my mom called and said that Hayleigh just fell asleep a little bit ago go ahead and leave her, Ok will do!!! Gotta love those grandparents!! We got up and I went to get her around 8 or so and Dave started cooking b-fast. We kinda bummed around the house and did a few things here and then went to the party.
Hayleigh enjoyed playing outside, with the rocks of course, and her Uncle Jason!!

She really enjoyed the wagon rides by mommy with her Coehen and Cylee (below). She kept trying to touch Cylee and kiss her and hug her. She loves her babies!!!






She isn't really sure about her Uncle John though. He loves to hold her and play with her!!! Only for a little bit then he has to put her down he says because she is heavy, not my baby!!LOL!!!




She was quiet funny on this tractor. As you see my mom was close behind her because she kept going backwards and sliding off the seat!! When she would go forwards she basically picked the thing up and walked with it!!
That was about the extent of our weekend!! Of course this weekend is busy!!!
