Hailey's first day of school!

I's finally here. Hailey's first day of school. I must admit I was pretty teary-eyed when we dropped her off but the staff was so supportive. Ms. Betty assured us everything would be ok and Hailey seemed to take a liking to her right away.

Hailey picked out her outfit and had it laying out all night in anticipation of her first day. You can tell she was a little nervous knowing she was going to be away from mom so long.

Here we are. Time to go to class.

Here's Ms. Betty. Everyone calls her Grandma.Here's her bed. #6. It's so bright and colorful we know she'll have a great time.Frankie and I missed her so much that he couldn't wait so he went and picked her up early. Ms. Betty said she was an angel. She must have had a fun day as you can see from this picture, she was all tuckered out.

So much catching up to do

We've been so busy spending time with Hailey I slacked off on my updates but that will all change soon. I begrudgingly head back to work tomorrow and I can already tell it's not going to be easy. The only thing that makes it easier is that we absolutley love her new school, http://www.willowbendlearningcenter.com/. I wanted so badly to have Hailey and Taylor go to school together but after thinking it over for a long time we thought it be best she go to a school closer to home. Frankie can now pick her up and take as needed and in the event she is fussy, the commute won't be as long. Today's post will be a collection of some of our favorite photos over the last few weeks. I told Frankie the other night I can already tell I want another one. =)

Hailey's big brothers are always ready to protect her.

Hailey loves tummy time.

Hailey has been practicing sitting up and is ready for her first day of school.

Hailey's first Mexican restaurant

Allison and I decided we deserved a lunch date so I took the girls to Herrera's off of Inwood near Harry Hines. It was the first time for the both of them and they loved it. Hailey loved the chips and salsa and was unable to finish her plate. Looks like she is throwing in the towel.

No mas! I'm full!

Sleeping beauty

I see Hailey loves sleeping as much as I do. Fortunately the swaddling (thanks Amie) is working and she's sleeping close to 4 hours at night before we have to get up and feed her. But when she wakes, you better be ready with the bottle. She goes from 0 to 60 in no time at all and lets you know that there better be food in her mouth in a hurry.

We had a great time at Lisa's with all of the family around. It was nice to see the girles one last time as well as chat with Nick via Skype.

She looks like a natural.

Watch out Jarret.

You think Frankie can ever say no to a face like this?
