Visit from Aunt Jamie

Last Wednesday, Aunt Jamie came for a visit. She was until from Wednesday night until Monday night. She got alot of "Hailey time" in while she was here. She kept Hailey home from daycare on Thursday, Friday and Monday and spent lots of time with her. Jamie did a great job with Hailey, especially because Hailey has been sick (teething, cold and cough) and a little fussy. For some odd reason, I did not take any pictures of them while she was here. Below is a picture (small and not that great of quality) that my sister took with her cell phone.

6 month check up

I know, I know....I am very late posting. I have been very busy working on my friends baby shower, which was this past Saturday. Also, for those of you who don't know, we made an offer on a short sale (A short sale is a sale of real estate in which the proceeds from the sale fall short of the balance owed on a loan secured by the property sold.) 20 weeks ago. We sold and moved our of our house about 7 weeks ago.....so we have been living out of boxes, literally. We FINALLY heard tonight that we got the house. YAY!!!

So, Hailey went for her 6 month check up on July 9th, 2009. She weighed 21 lbs 6 ounces and was 27 1/2 inches long. Dr. Phillips checked her out and said that everything was great. She received a few shots while she was there. She was a real trooper. She gets a break, she will not receive another round of shots until her 12 month check up.

So I didn't catch this on video but it was really cute. Our dog, Mollie loves Hailey so much. She is always checking other people out when they come over to make sure that Hailey is safe. If you could only picture this:
Mollie was walking around Hailey, the other day and Mollie sneezed. Hailey started laughing...she thought that it was the funniest thing.

Hailey's first beach trip and many other things

You may want to sit down for this one.....

We took Hailey to the beach this past week for a few days and she had a blast. She is a little beach bum. She is so hot natured, so I guess it is natural that she likes the water. She loves any type of water....the bath, the pool, the sound etc. I had a hard time picking one picture so here are a few.

We took Hailey to Pine Knoll Shore Aquarium, while we were at the beach. Obviously, she is way too young to take much in but it was a fun experience. Here are a few pictures:

While at the beach, we starting feeding Hailey baby food. We started her with bananas and green beans. She did a good job and didn't make too many crazy faces. She has since tried squash and peaches.

Hailey will be 6 months on Thursday (where has the time went). She has her 6 month check-up on Wednesday so stay tuned.....
