Six Months Old

Oh my cuteness!! This precious little angel is six months old already...time flies! 
Little bit weighed in at 14lbs 5 oz. and is 25 1/4 inches long. At her 6 month check-up Hadley had to get her heel pricked...brave girl didn't even flinch. She just looked at the nurse and watched her stick her and squeeze on her foot. I was shocked! I seem to remember her big brother being quite dramatic getting pricked, ha! She did have to have 5 vaccines, 1 oral (which she had no problem sucking right down), and 4 shots in the leg. There were some tears shed during those, of course, but thankfully she got over it pretty quickly.

Hadley is growing and changing so so fast. Her laugh is just the sweetest sound and I love hearing it each and every day. She loves her big brother so much and he can make her cackle. I think he loves making her laugh as much as she enjoys watching him sing and dance and cut up. Hadley is sitting up on her own. She still topples over occasionally but for the most part is sitting completely on her own. She is reaching and grabbing for everything and she wants to crawl so badly! She gets up on all fours and rocks back and forth, but she hasn't quite been able to figure out how to get her legs and arms to work together yet. She does scoot around on her belly and roll around to get where she wants to go though, so I'm sure she'll get it before too long. She is also eating like a champ! In addition to milk, she's eating cereal and is on stage 2 baby food. She is a Puff maniac and loves those Baby Mum-Mums too! If she had some teeth, I'm fairly confident she'd eat anything we put in front of her!

Five Months!

Could this be the cutest baby girl?
I may be biased, but I sure think so! Those chubby cheeks and big baby blues and beautiful eyelashes get me every time. We are going to have to learn to say no to her before she learns to talk or we are done, ha! I am still loving spending my days with my babies and am so glad that I have had the chance to do so this year. Maddox was around this age when I had to go back to work and it just broke my heart to not get to spend as much time with him especially since this is the age where they really start to become so much fun! Hadley has just started eating rice cereal and has taken to it fairly quickly. She seems to like it much more than I remember Maddox liking it. We will be starting with baby food in the next few weeks so I am sure if she likes the plain old cereal that she will love the taste of her fruits and veggies. She still loves to roll over and loves playing with her toys and babbles constantly. She still loves her big brother too and he just adores her. Hopefully that will be a lasting love!

We'll Miss You Mimi...

Blake's sweet grandmother passed away on Tuesday night. She fought hard and thankfully we know she isn't in pain anymore.

We are so glad that she was able to come see us Christmas morning this year. Maddox had so much fun showing her all of his loot from Santa.

We love and miss you, Mimi!

Four Months Old!

Look who's 4 months old already! 
Hadley is getting bigger and more active every day. She is currently 13lbs, 9 oz and is 24 3/4 in. long (although I think the nurse might have been a little bit generous on that one, ha). Hadley loves playing in her exersaucer, although only for short periods of time. She still loves being held and talked to. Basically she would just like you to pay attention to her at all times. :) She just started rolling over for the first time when we were in Mobile for Christmas and once she started, she hasn't seemed to stop. She loves being on her belly! Love this precious angel!
