Hailey

September 10th, 2009 Melanie Posted in Hailey, The Things She Says | 9 Comments »

Here’s what Hailey has had to say lately:

“I am losing my patience.” (I have no idea where she heard that one!)

*****

“Daddy come quick… there’s something dangerous!” (I think it was a spider.)

*****

After my cousin and his wife had a baby, Hailey told me that “She had a boy, he’s named Abraham Lincoln.”

*****

Hailey was mad at me because I wouldn’t let her do something she wanted to do and she told me, “Well then I’m not going to be a ballerina.”

*****

Hailey was trying to put a dress on one of her dolls.  Once she finally got it on she said, “Mission completed! It fits now.”

*****

I was trying to set the table and Hailey was putting books where I was trying to put dishes.  I told her the books were in the way and she had to move them and she said to me, “I need to take a different approach.”

*****

Hailey was not able to get a toy up the stairs and said, “Now we have to scrub the mission.”  I have no idea what the mission was!

*****

Hailey was building with her blocks when Rich was asking her a question about what she was building. She said, “Daaaaaad don’t confuse me by talking to me when I’m making Cinderella’s castle”

*****

One of Hailey’s favorite things to say is “apparently” and she is always trying to throw that word in to conversations and into books that she is reading.

*****

Rather than say “in a couple minutes” or “in a little while” Hailey says, “In a couple whiles.”

*****

We went to lunch the other day and as the waitress was walking away Hailey said, “Wow Mom, she’s awfully old.”

Fun With Cousins

August 31st, 2009 Melanie Posted in Brooke, Family, Hailey, Me, Rich | No Comments »

A couple of weeks ago my cousin Beka, her husband Bill and their daughter Anika came for a visit.  Hailey was so excited that Anika was coming that she could hardly wait for her to get here!  I think they came for the 4 hottest days we have had all summer.  It was hot but we had fun anyways!

Here are some pictures of the fun we had together:

We started out at the zoo.  Brooke and Hailey enjoyed petting a goat.

The goats were a little bit pushy about getting their food so Hailey wasn’t able to feed them because they kept trying to jump on her.  The goats loved Rich!

Anika and Hailey also spent some time swimming in my parents’ pool.  Afterwards they had a snack and drew with chalk on the patio.

Another day they played in the sprinkler over at our house.  It took them a few minutes to decide whether or not they liked the sprinkler.  As you can see Hailey decided she loved it.

My dad had to go out and buy the girls a little wading pool to play in- and they loved it!

We had lots of fun together.  When Beka and I were younger we spent lots of time together and I have lots of fun memories from our times together.  I hope that Hailey and Anika will be able to make lots of happy memories together too!

House Pictures

August 28th, 2009 Melanie Posted in House, Me | 10 Comments »

There are a few of you who keep asking to see pictures of our new house, so I am finally getting around to posting some for you.  I am also including a few before pictures of some of the rooms we made changes in.  We have only been here for a few weeks so there are still a lot of things left to be done.

Livin With Me

This picture of Hailey shows our house in the background.  I feel a little funny about posting a picture of the front of our house for the whole world wide web to see, so this is just a peek.  If you want to see a picture where you can really see the front, send me an email and I’ll send you a picture.

This is the entry.

The living room- with Hailey bouncing through the room.

The kitchen.

More kitchen.

This is the dining room before.

This is the dining room after my dad and Rich took the carpet out and sanded and finished the hardwood floor.

Livin With Me

This is our bedroom before.

And this is our bedroom after Rich and my dad did the hardwood floors in here too.  We haven’t hung up anything yet in our room.

Livin With Me

Hailey’s bedroom (The dresser all the way on the left will not be staying there.  It’s just there until we get around to moving it to its new location.)

Hailey’s playroom

Livin With Me

This is a hallway downstairs- it leads to a bathroom and the garage.

Livin With Me

This is Brooke’s room before- I didn’t get a very good picture of it- but it had blue carpet and wood paneling.

Livin With Me

This is Brooke’s room after she painted it and Rich did the floors.

Livin With Me

This is the family room.

So there you have it.  There’s a few more rooms- bathrooms, laundry room and Rich’s work area that I didn’t include pictures of.  But, for the most part you have just had the official tour of our new house.
