Growing!

It has been so long since I posted anything! I don't have all of our pics downloaded yet, but here's a few of our growing little girl. She liked being out with daddy in his new "woodshop" out back...she only got scared a few times of the loud saws!
Hailey is the best napping partner. She always has a huge smile waiting for you when she wakes up, I LOVE her smile! She has also gotten her top two front teeth in and is getting a 3rd bottom tooth. Honestly I wish I had a picture of her top teeth, they are so stinkin cute! Right now there is still a little gap while they're growing in, so she totally looks like a Davenport. She also won't stop grinding her top and bottom teeth together. It drives the mama absolutely crazy -like fingernails on a chalkboard- but I don't know how to get her to stop. :(
Hailey is also crawling all over the place, which I love. She is so happy now that she can scoot around and we frequently hear her laughing at how much fun it is to move. Consequently, she is now into everything and loves dumping her treats all over the floor. She loves to stand at the tub and knock the shampoo bottle in, she loves to stand at the door, play in the tupperware drawer, play the keyboard, climb stairs, climb our kitchen shelf, climb people, climb anything, "bark" at the dogs and pet them, get chased by mommy and daddy, and most of all she loves to just be outside. Jeff and I have been surprised at how big she's gotten and how quickly. It still seems like last week we brought her home from the hospital. She is such a miracle. We also have our court date set for the finalization and the temple date to be sealed together; July 28th! We are so excited!

Yay for the sealing! I was really excited to hear that the church changed the policy and so now you can get it done in as little as thirty days. That is so great. yes, we're so, so excited about our news. Adoption really is a miracle isn't it? It's been fun to watch you guys go through it and I'm so happy now it's our turn :)

It was so fun seeing you Liz! I've always loved you and had fun talking to you. I"ll be in town the end of July so if we can get together that would be fabulous! If not, (cause it sounds like you have quite the event on the 29th!) and you have too much family around to entertain, I will catch you next time! Love ya!

What a cutie! We need to get together again. Now that she's mobile, she might like to play with Carson.

The 28th! That is so soon. YAY! She really is super cute. They do grow up way too fast though. It was fun to chat with you for a minute the other day... we really do need to try and plan a get together. I miss all of you cute girlies.

Hailey is so cute! And I kind of thought she looked like a Davenport a little in your heading picture too. Does she have a red tint to her hair? I couldn't tell if that was just the picture. Anyway she is so adorable and I am so happy for you and so glad that you will be sealed together as a forever family! What a great blessing for your little family!
