Atribute to mom

Hadley does this little scrunch thing with her nose and one day my father told me I did the same when I was her age.  He was able to find a photo of me doing the nose scrunch and passed it along.

For the love of dirt

Ok, before you get too upset with me I did my best to keep her from eating the dirt but she was just to fast.  Must admit she is having a great time and doesn't seem to mind that it tastes terrible.  

Christmas

Although this is technically Hadley's second Christmas this is the first that counts. We had a blast watching her open her presents, the pet presents, and some of mommy and daddy's.  She received a tea set, stuffed animals, books, a tub toy, slippers, and a wind plane for the back yard. The most fun for her was collecting all the Christmas bags.

Grandpa's visit

Grandpa D and doggie Brownie came to visit just before Christmas.  When I went to write this post I came to realize that grandpa had taken all the photos with his camera. I was left with the few shots we had with our camera. Here we are at the train park where they had a grand display of Christmas lights.   Walking around the park were a few story book characters which Hadley wasn't to excited about. All was good again when she tried ice cream for the first time.

Hadley's frist Christmas party

Martins RC flying buddy invited all the guys and their families to his house for a Christmas party. He and his wife have a lovely home that was very kid friendly. Hadley never sat down the 3 hours we were there. There was lots of food, fun and flying. 

All dolled up and ready to go

Who knew?

When I play with Hadley I try and show her how her toys work.  Many times she doesn't seem to be interested in how Im playing with them, she does her own thing.  I never know if she is understanding what Im  doing until out of know where she surprises me.  Here is one of those moments.

The great outdoors

Hadley has discovered a new way to get outside that doesn't involve mommy and daddy's help. The doggie door!  Nowdays it has the cover on it so she doesn't adventure out on her own.  We also discovered she likes to help water the grass.
