Growing up tall

Once Hadley could stand we lowered her mattress in the crib but left the railing low. A few weeks ago we put the railing up and her eyes just come over the top.   I think she will be tall like her daddy.

Loves playing in the fridge

Godzilla or Sleestak

When Hadley gets really excited she does this funny sound. We first thought of Godzilla but then we where very much reminded of the Sleestak from the Land Of The Lost.  We are leaning towards the Sleestak but you can decide for yourself. If you don't know what they sound like here is a link.  http://www.landofthelost.com/slee.mp3

First wheels, boat ride and garden.

We decided to get Hadley a walker.  There is controversy surrounding them but we don't have stairs and she uses it very little.  Her favorite thing to do is chase Dash around the house, something he doesn't find very amusing.

We headed out to Lake Pleasant to take a boat ride with a friend of Martin's.  Hadley seemed to enjoy the adventure.  If you are wondering she did have a life jacket just not for the photos.

This year is her first garden.  Technically we only planted Sunflowers because that's all we had time for. We will continue to post pictures as they grow.  I do hope she has a green thumb! 

8 months

Hadley is 8 months and getting cuter every second.  She is very active.  She speed crawls,  loves to stand and bang on things,  chases Dash around the house in her walker,  has 4 teeth and has a taste for fine foods.  Just when I think there is not enough room in my heart to love this child more...it happens.

 Hadley's  new little whale pool to splash around in the back yard.  

She is starting to play with her airplane

At the library with all the other babies for story time. 

Testing out her new little knee pads for crawling

Video of her doing what she wants to do all day... standing and banging.

 We couldn't leave Dash out of the latest update. With all this heat we thought it a good idea to give him a haircut.  It takes a little getting used to but we think he's cute.
