Little Lady is offically 2 1/2

May 20, 2010

  Yeppers! Hailey Renie is offically 2 1/2 today! I can't belive how much she has changed in 6 months!!! She is talking so much now, I swear its like 5 new words a day! She can sing a long to her ABC's, count to 10 on her own however its like this "1-2-4-5-6-7-8-9-4-10" no idea where that came from, knows almost all her colors and shapes, Im just so amazed by her! She wants to learn everything! Shes constantly wanting to read or talking back with the kids shows! Her favorite in the last week has been Ki-Lan. I mean I dont know if its just becasue she is my daughter and I think she is smart, just when I look at the kids she hangs out with most of them are older and shes right there with them! Even her height! Tall little thing!! lol...

She has REALLY taken on the roll of being a big sister VERY well!! If he crys shes like "oh no nickers its ok" I mean wow just how did I become so damn lucky?! She even calls him around the couch and opens the crunchies and they snack when mommys cleaning!! lol....little goobers!

Potty trainging, WOW! I can't believe how well she is doing!! She hasn't had one accident in over a week!!! Well she had an upset stomach one day and messed herself like 4 or 5 times but she was sick becasue other then that shes going potty! Broke my heart when she just cried and apologized. I just held her and told her it was ok. Poor baby! Her 2 year molars are coming in so I believe thats the cause of all this! She has been very attached to mommy and her damn binky. But once this is over NO MORE BINKY!!! lol...Seriously im so tired of that thing! haha...

Well here are some pics of her from the last 2-3 days! Enjoy =)

Faster....Faster...Faster

Such a GOOD big sister!

Big Girl Panties VS the Potty

Can not belive that my little lady is going to be 2 1/2 this month! It seems like yesterday she was learning to stand and clapping her hands because it was such a BIG deal and in doing so making her fall. She thought it was so funny!!


Time has seriously gone so fast! I wish I could pause it at times because I know as soon as I blink shes gonna be grown and leaving.


Speaking of growing up, she is NO longer wearing pull-ups during the day! Its now Big Girl panties all day. This will be our 3rd and final attempt at Potty Training! It was just not her time before and we are ready now!


Today was a GOOD day for being day one! She peed in the potty 4 times today and twice almost made it! She got the hang of it quick, however by the end of the day was becoming stuborn but thats bound to happen! She really likes her big girl underwear! lol shes too cute!


At one point today, I ask her "Hailey do you need to go potty?" Her reply "no mom peepee potty, night night, ok!"  As in no mom its sleeping I dont have to go now!!! LMAO! I may miss her being little and cuddling with her but I love this stage JUST as much!!! I just wish her daddy was here to see and here all of this! But he shall be soon enough! Less then 4 months!! (coming to a blog near you soon)


Well hopefully day 2 of potty training will be just as succesful if not more! Right now we are Potty 4, Panties 5.....Here are some old favorites of lil miss!!! Enjoy!!!

Springing it into gear....

Where do I begin...

We are moved in!!! Well were here tripping over stuff anyway, lol. However I prefer tripping over things and seeing my house starting to be a home =) Haileys room is set up for now. We are puchasing a bedroom set for her, so im not really decorating until it gets here. That way I dont have to take anything down off the walls so that her dresser/mirror will fit!! Its a cute set and I can't wait to order it for her!!! Nicks room is also being used as the computer room do to the lack of space downstairs. Hopefully when andrew gets home we can figure a way to put it in our room so that he has his own little place to call his own!!! But for now it works!!

Easter Update

Easter was a blast! The day before we went to base for an Egg Hunt. That was a joke! So many little kids and so little eggs!!! Kinsley and Hailey got 2 eggs each and Rileys mommy Mellisa got a chance to grab a few for her! We decided to go home and have our own at the playground, turned out great!!! Easter was a blast. We went down to Ruth Hardy park to meet the family like normal and it was a blast!!! The kids had a great time and it was nice to see family. As we were leaving and packing the car I started yelling at my cousins to stop shaking the car! Little did I know it was not them for it was a 7.2 Earthquake that hit about 2 hours away! Havn't felt one in a long time!! Here are pics from Easter....enjoy =)

Before dying eggs & before he got thew!

Oh yes, straight threw the shell!!

Wednesday March 10, 2010....

We will finally have the keys to our new so called house for the next who knows how long! lol...

Went to base this morning to figure all this out becasue they told us we would not have a place. The lady that did my paper work did it ALL wrong. We really wanted on base. For those of you that dont know on base is much bigger, is gated, and oh you have a garage! lol...but this is ok. We are looking forward to it!

Our experience with 801 before was horrible!!! Major Ants, falling down stairs, crappy maintance, 2 window AC units for the whole place, just horrible! Now their is central AC, HOPEFULLY no ants, and well lincoln housing took over and things will be changing a lot for the better! Even talk about a swimming pool by this summer!

Our new place is RIGHT next to our carport and then the main playground with grass (yes grass) is right on the other side of our building. Across from the complex is the big community park also.

Im very excited to move in and be able to have all this stress off my shoulders, enjoy time with our kids and keep busy having fun and workin out until daddy is home =)

Packing, well its coming along! Now that I get the the keys wednesday this place is gonna be in boxes SOO fast!!! haha...but really, gonna pack ALL day tomorrow, sooner I get things packed, sooner I can move and turn the utlities off  and not have to pay so much! lol....

Nicky is watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Adventures in Wonderland (his favorite). This is his 2nd time threw, one after another and he is still sqealing at it!! haha, however his sissy is already asleep so hes about to be put down to bed also =) Mommy has a full day to help good thing aunt heather is here to help me!!!

Nighty Night Everyone!

~6 Months & Counting~

Oh my goodness! I can not believe that this little tiny man is already 6 months old!! His check up was today (2-24-2010) and he is 16.7lbs and 26 1/2in. He is growing so darn fast. So far everything looks good with his kidney and heart!! They said that they should not have to do another ultrasound on his kidneys unless something comes up, possibly one at 12months just to confirm everything is looking good! However he does have Eczema, just not that bad. After I use the rest of our regular tide im going to switch to the die free kind, that you would use when they are first born. I use to have it, however its not so easy to find anymore so I will probably just order it off babiesrus or something =)

Wow, what can I say? Nick is really on the move these last few weeks. He is getting on his hands and knees trying to crawl, attempting to but falling and just ends up scooting! lol...He is a very happy little man for the most part. However he does have this new thing where he wants you to bounce and walk with him while holding the binkie in his mouth until he passes out. Its weird and frustrating when you are exausted but with his smiles looking back at you in the middle of the night you just can't help but smile back!

Well as for muchkin thats about it for right now. I will update at 9months or sooner if he starts crawling, in which im sure will happen!!! lol...I took these the day he turned 6 months old =)
