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.....

Father's Day

This past weekend was Paul's first Father's Day! I really hope that he had a great day. Hailey bought him some new crocs...yes Paul wears crocs. Hailey is so fortunate to have an amazing dad. He loves her more than anything in life.

We were at Paul's mom and dads this past weekend for the Annual Father's Day Gathering. We got some cute shots Makenna and Hailey.

We had such a busy day Sunday celebrating Father's Day. Hailey was sitting outside with me and I noticed that she was rubbing her eyes, so I knew that it was about 6:30 (bedtime is between 6:30 & 7:30). Well a few minutes later, I looked and she had her arm on mine and her head on her hand.

A cute shot of Hailey after she got out of the bath. The only time that you will she her hair standing up.

Hailey is now a little over 5 1/2 months old. How time has flown. Hailey has been teething again. She already has her bottom 2 teeth.

Crazy!!!

Ok, so let me being by saying that my sister bought Hailey an "My Aunt Jamie love me" onsie before she was even born. I sent her a picture of Hailey wearing it the other day because it is starting to get to small and I know that she is not going to be able to wear it much longer. When I sent her the picture, she sent me a text back to sent it to Brian's (her boyfriend) phone because her phone wasn't working. Well when he say it later that morning he sent me a text saying "Where's her I love Brian onsie". So I sent one back saying, "She is growing out of her Aunt Jamie onsie. You can buy her an I love my sisters boyfriend Brian onsie. LOL" Well he did......below are pictures of both onsies.

Let me also add that it says, "I love my Aunt Jamie's "Boyfriend" Brian.....with Boyfriend in quotes because I was giving Brian a hard time that Hailey was not allowable to call him Uncle yet. She could call him Uncle Brian when they got married.....even though they have been dating for almost 4 years. Sorry Bry

Going back

I have been sitting here looking at the last 5 months worth of Hailey pictures and if you know me, that is ALOT of pictures. Here is a picture of Hailey when she was first born and a picture of her now. It is so remarkable to see the changes that have taken place in just 5 months.

Hailey 2 days old

Hailey 5 months old

5 months old

I can't believe that my baby girl is going to be 5 months old tomorrow. Where has the last 5 months gone? I can't even imagine my life with out her. She makes me smile every minute of every day. As a full-time working mom, I don't get the joy of seeing her all day long. When I get home, I don't want to do anything else from the time I pick her up about 3 or so until the time that she goes to bed (btwn 6:30 and 7:30) but play with her and lay with her. I rarely talk to anyone on the phone during that time because that is Hailey time.

A look back:

She rolled over for the first time Memorial Day weekend and is now rolling over all the time. She rolls over and alot of the time gets frustrated because she can't go anywhere. You can she her moving her legs/knees when she is on her tummy....she is so ready to move.

We have started feeding Hailey cereal with a spoon. We practice her eating with a spoon twice a day on the weekends. She is getting better and better with each feeding.

Hailey now has her two bottom front teeth.

Hailey's hair is growing longer and longer. It is so pretty.

Some pictures of Hailey at 5 months

Per Aunt Jamie's request

My sister requested a picture of her and Hailey on the blog....

Ok in my sisters defense, I told her to check the blog and she was excited because she thought that I posted a picture of her and Hailey. Sorry Jamie....
