Last Tuesday, September 1st I took Hailey to the park for the first time. My friend, Amber let me know that she and her girls were going to the park that Tuesday afternoon, if I wanted to bring Hailey. I was decided that it was a beautiful day, so I walked up to the park after work with Hailey. My friend, Shelley was also there with her two kids. It was great to enjoy that afternoon with great friends and watch the kids have a wonderful time at the park.
This past Saturday, September 5th was Hailey's first football tailgating experience. We loaded up the car with all of the tailgating "stuff" and headed to the field about 8. We tailgated from 8-12 then off to the game. Hailey tailgated and did wonderful. She did not attend the game because it was way to hot outside. A side note: she did not drink the beer below that she is holding. The can was empty.
My parents came down to visit Hailey this past weekend. We all had a very nice visit. Although we put them to work on the house while they were here, Hailey got to enjoy time with Grandma and Grandpa. I didn't get a good picture of grandma and granpa with Hailey but got a nice shot of grandma with Hailey.
Yesterday, September 8th, Hailey was 8 months old. Where has the time gone?? I know I say that alot in my posts but I feel like Iblink and my baby gets bigger and bigger. She is doing the following things:
- claps up a storm
- eats big "girl" food i.e. chicken & mashed potatoes once a day
- sits up by herself
- "scoots" all over the place
- isn't fully crawling but has taken up to 6 "crawls" (one knee, two knee, etc)
- is pulling up and standing in her crib (although she is not pulling up anywhere else)
Lastly, I have to say that she cracks us up when she sleeps because she sleeps on her knees. I just had to take a picture of it tonight, since I knew that I was going to update the blog. I don't think that anyone would believe us unless they saw the picture.
