Toes

It sure is fun having 2 girls. Today I painted all our toes purple. Maybe one of these days Joe will give in and let us paint his toes. JK. I wouldn't do that to him.

Just a cute picture I took of Joe and Hadlie today.

Christmas

We had a great Christmas again this year. We spent Christmas Eve at my grandparents house. Christmas morning we had breakfast with my dads side of the family at my cousins house. Then we went out to my sisters house to open presents with my family. Then home for naps and so I could make chicken enchaladas for dinner at Joes parents house. It was a fun day and we all got some good stuff from Santa. It was so fun to watch Keelie open presents. She was practically shaking opening each present cuz she was so excited. It was like she couldn't open them fast enough.

These are the only pictures I took all day.

Keelie turned 3!!

My baby girl turned 3 on Monday! We had a family birthday party for her at the zoo on Saturday. I think there was about 35 people there. It was all first cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents from both sides of the family. The funny thing is, not even everyone was there! Keelie sure has alot of people that love her!
I thought this first picture was cute of her and some of her little cousins holding hands.

I think all the kids got to ride on the camels. I only took a picture when Keelie rode though.

This is Kendal, Kate, Keelie, and Lucy

Keelie has so many little girl cousins around the same age, I wanted to get a picture.

Hailee, Kendal, Keelie, Hannah, Kate, Annie, Abby. Lucy had already left.

Our family

On her actual birthday, we left Hadlie with Joe's sister and we took Keelie to see Tangled. It was her first time going to the movie theater. She loved it! We love our Keelie Jo so much. She has quite the personality. She can be soooo shy and quiet, but when she comes out of her shell, she is so silly and fun. She can be so layed back and easy going, but at the same time is OCD. Is that possible? Aren't they opposites? It's so true though. She is such a good big sister to Hadlie. She always wants to keep an eye on her for me. And I actually let her sometimes. If I need to go get ready, I will leave Hadlie on the floor with some toys, and tell Keelie that if she cries give her her pacifier. She does that, but will also play with her and try to make her happy. She is so sweet. It's no wonder Hadlie loves Keelie so much. We love her too!

sitting up

Hadlie is getting pretty good at sitting up. She shouldn't be big enough to sit up already! She is my baby! It's fun to look back on my blog when Keelie was a baby to see when she hit certain milestones and compare to Hadlie. I still need to be way better at taking pictures and blogging about Hadlie. I want to remember for when we have our next baby(not an announcement). Eventhough I'm not very good at blogging, I'm so glad I do. It makes for a pretty good journal!

6 months

My Hadlie girl is 6 months old. I can't believe it. She is such a good, sweet baby. She is at such a fun age. She is so happy and smiley all the time and its fun to get her to laugh. Keelie is the best at getting her to laugh. All Keelie has to do is jump and Hadlie will laugh at her. She has been able to roll over for a few months now, but is stubborn and stays on her back most of the time. If I put her on her stomach she rolls right back over. But I think she is starting to figure out that she can get to things if she rolls over. And apparently what I thought was a tooth a few months ago isn't one. A lady I work with said her daughter had the same thing and her doctor said it was a milk pocket. Which makes sense because it hasn't grown at all like a tooth would have by now. But a few weeks ago she did get her bottom two teeth. Anyways, here are her stats:
weight- 15.12 50th
height- 27 1/2 95th
head- 171/4 85th
She is gonna be tall!

You can see her two bottom teeth in this picture.

Halloween

What a fun halloween we had this year! I wasn't to excited about it cuz it was on Sunday this year, but it ended up being a fun night! On Saturday Joes parents ward and another ward have chili and fry bread every year, so we went and ate there. Its actually for the whole neighborhood, so there is alot of people there. Its fun cuz we always see alot of people we know there. Then we went to my parents. Their ward had a big carnival type thing with food, bounce houses, games for the kids, and of course trunk or treating. There was alot of people there too, so Keelie got a good stash of candy. It was so cute hearing her say trick or treat so politely everytime.

I let her pick her costume and I knew she was going to choose Cinderella. Prettiest Cinderella ever!

Hadlie is a witch if you can't tell. I know, she kind of looks like an elf. The hat is a little small. My sisters little girl wore it when she was like 2 weeks old and Hadlie is 5 months! (and my kids tend to have huge heads) She was such a good sport all night!

hot sauce packets

We went to Taco Bell for lunch today and as usual, we grabbed way to many packets of hot sauce. Keelie was holding a ton of them in her hands and right when we were leaving she dropped all but two of them. She was definately tired from playing all morning at the train park, and started throwing a fit. Not knowing exactly why she was crying, we made her leave. As we're driving away she was crying saying she wanted 3 not 2. Of course we told her no cuz there is no way we are going back to Taco Bell to get one packet of sauce, so she cried and cried the whole way home. When we got home she went straight to bed, but was still crying. Then I remembered we had saved a few packets from when we had Taco Bell a while ago, so I went and got one for her. This seemed to make her happy and this is how she fell asleep, holding tightly to her beloved Taco Bell hot sauce.
