It's Official...

Our little Hadley is a chunk!! I took her to her 2 mth check up last Thursday and she now weighs in at a whopping 12 lbs 3 oz. That is a weight gain of 5 lbs since our little ball of chubs was born. Her height hasn't quite caught up with the weight, but she has grown 2 1/4 in.






She is so much fun right now. She is starting to smile and make all kinds of baby noises. She definitely likes her older sisters and lets them know it with the many smiles that she is constantly giving them.


Macey really wanted the baby to play dress-ups with her. This is what you get when you have three girls. Hadley wasn't to thrilled with her sisters chosen accessory.






I tried to keep this as G rated as possible, but you just don't get the full effect of our little chub-a-lub. She does love bath time, especially having her hair scrubbed. Sydney and Macey just love to help me bath her.

Funny Girls!

Here are just a couple of funny things from the girls.
The girls (all of them) have been sick the last couple of weeks. The other night we just needed to get out of the house. So, we took a short drive and ended up at Krispy Kreme for some donuts. For whatever reason, the baby was not thrilled to be in her car seat. She was screaming so bad that while we were in the drive-thru I took her out of her seat. This is our conversation when we got done and I was putting Hadley back in her seat.
Sydney: We have to put her back so the cops don't stop us and put you in jail huh mom. (This is what I have always told her when we have problems getting her in her seat.)
Me: I don't think that we will go to jail, but we will get in trouble.
Weston: Maybe they won't take us to jail if you give them a donut.
Me: Sydney, will you give the police your donut so that we don't go to jail?
Sydney: No, I want my donut!
Me: So you want mommy and daddy to go to jail?
Sydney:No, but I want my donut!!
Macey: (crying) I don't want to give the police my donut!!
We listened to this all the way home. Apparently having Weston and I around is not worth the cost of one chocolate covered donut with sprinkles.


Macey has been extremely attached to her Binky's since we have moved around so much. With Hadley's arrival, I decided to let her keep her Binky's around for a bit longer, but she can only have them at nap time and bedtime. The other day, Weston got her up and made her put her binky back in her bed. When she came out of her bedroom her jammies had been unzipped a ways. He didn't think anything of it and they went upstairs for breakfast. When they got there, she started to take her jammies off. Weston checked on her and it turns out that she had smuggled her Binky's upstairs in her jammies. She had two of them with her and they were down by her feet so she had to take her jammies completely off to get them. Where there's a will there's a way!!


Macey gets quit protective of our little Hadley at times. The other morning my mom was holding Hadley and Macey came storming up the stairs yelling "Hey, don't touch us new baby!!"


This one happened soon after Hadley and I came home from the hospital. I was nursing her and Macey came in. She climbed up on the bed with me and said "Hey, the new baby is eating your belly button!"

I had another one about Sydney but I just can't remember it right now. Kids say some of the funniest things. There just never seems to be a dull moment at our house. I am sure that many of you that have children feel the same way. :)
