9 months and lots of trouble


Hailey is now 9 months old and like I predicted before, she is on the go and walking. She took her first steps the day before she turned 9 months old. It is so fun to watch her walk she just looks too little to be walking she is only 17lbs and 27 inches tall. On average she is in the 25th percentile.


My little cousin Bryson is the cutest little guy ever, but he can also cause a lot of trouble. Like when he dumped the entier bottle of liqiued dish soap on the carpet. You couldn't get mad at him because he was so darn cute. I think there is a reason why Hailey is so darn cute TOO! If she turns out anything like her cousin or her dad I know this is just the begining, but it is the begining. Heres the story.


Our good friends and home teacher Dayle and Maelena were over. He was "trying" to hometeach us. Hailey was a little restless so Alan gave his bottle of blue gattorade to her to play with. She loved it of course, she always wants whatever we have. As we are listening to the spiritual thought all of a sudden Hailey and our cream carpet were now BLUE. Guess we better screw those lids on a little tighter next time. As we are trying to clean Hailey up and her pretty sunday dress and the carpet up. She fills her diaper and then some, if you know what I mean. I am trying to just take care of things quickly so that we can finish our lesson and clean up after they leave. Alan on the other hand puts Hailey in the tub and hoses her down and then pulls out the carpet cleaner to get the stain out. Service...aka...clean up baby messes, thats what home teachers are for aren't they?


It's a good thing she is so darn cute!

Welcome home Janessa!!

Welcome Home!!!
Janessa, Alan's younger sister got home from her mission in Madrid, Spain on October 6th. Hailey got to meet the last of her aunts. It took a little while for Hailey to warm up to Janessa, but their good buddies now. Janessa was surprised to see everyone at the airport especially AnnaLea. AnnaLea flew in on monday from Utah to surprise Janessa.


While we had everyone in the same state we took a new family picture. Hailey did so well, especially considering we were at the studio when she should have been laying down for bed.
