Bailee's 1st Birthday Party

My little Bailee turned one a couple of weeks ago. How time flies! Maybe it's because she's still so little that she doesn't seem like she's one yet. Everytime I set her down in public and she starts walking people kind of freak out because she still looks SO small. It's pretty funny! At her one year check: weight: 16lbs...not even on the chart anymore. Last time she was 3-5% and she dropped off this time. We've got to get her to gain some weight. Please send me any ideas!!! We sure LOVE this girl and are so glad to have her in our family!

Family

A couple of weeks ago we had Seth's cousin, Mike and his family come to town to visit. We headed downtown and yes those our butts that they are standing by...

Maddies Soccer Team

This year was Maddie's first experience playing on a soccer team...here's the thing, she is SO good when she plays at home with Seth and I but, when she gets out there on the field with the other kids she just runs around timid and falls down randomly. She is so funny! There is still hope that she will be our little soccer star like we dream of, haha, but for now I think she's more interested in the butterflies and flowers. Here's some pictures of the team and Seth who initially volunteered me to be the coach but it was to hard with Bailee, so he ended up doing it and the kids loved him!

Valentine's Day

Valentines day kind of changes once you have little kids and this year for Valentine's day we went to my brother and sister-in-law's house and the kids made a restaurant for us and my parents. It was really cute and the kids were loving being the waiters and bringing us our food. Maddie kept calling everyone Sir or Mam, it was really funny!

Bailee, 11 months

I can't believe how time goes by SO FAST! Next month Bailee will be one year old and it seems like we just brought her home from the hospital. I NEVER thought I would get another girl with as much attitude as her older sister had when she was a baby but...turns out she has way more attitude than her older sister had at this age. She is SO much fun. Bailee is very curious and gets into everything. This one has been very fast developmentally and so I haven't got much rest since she was born. She started walking in the past couple of weeks and she is SO excited to go exploring and follow her big sister around the house. I have every door, cupboard and drawer on lockdown at all times because she LOVES to pull everything out. Last week she figured out how to climb on top of her sisters bed so I can't leave her room open anymore, which I like to leave open because all the toys are in there. I think Seth and I are going to be in serious trouble in a few years! Oh well, I wouldn't trade anything in the world for either of our girls they make our lives so much fun!

Christmas 2009

This Christmas started off a little crazy. My dad had to go into the hospital the Monday before Christmas because he was having a REALLY hard time breathing. Turns out he had had a blood clot in his leg that moved to his lungs. It was VERY scary! On Christmas we brought all the grandkids to see him, even though there wasn't supposed to be any kids on his floor, the nurses let it slide because it was Christmas...We love our dad and grandpa and are so glad that he is feeling a little better!

All the grandkids, well at least the older ones.

Santa got Maddie the horse that you can see in the background. She LOVES it! I had some good ones of her riding it on my camera but these pictures are all ones my sis gave me until I get my camera back...hopefully with the pictures on it! Maddie opening Bailee's presents.

Sleepy Bailee. Can you believe that LITTLE girl is 10 months!

My very talented sister made my girls the CUTEST dolls this year for Christmas. She did one that looks like Maddie and also a brown haired one for Bailee. SO cute! I think this was my favorite present, and it wasn't even for me...lol!

Here's Bailee's. SO cute!
