Hadley's 1st bday, with many more to come

So all Hadley's pictures are on Dan's school camera, and he keeps forgetting to bring it home so I just stole these off my sisters blog. Can I just tell you how much I love having a girl? Honestly Hadley had a blast, but as her mom I was just in heaven. It was the first time We have been home for one of my kiddos birthdays and the WHOLE family came. Can we say crazy, fun?

My sister Jamie is more than just crafty. I had this idea in my head and without winking she helped me pull it off. She is so talented. She helped me make this super cute cupcake toppers and a banner that said "HADLEY."

Don't they just look so fun? We had a BUTT load of pizza. My poor kids weren't on top of there game that night (A few night later Hayden got the flu, so that explains Y he was struggling so bad) Hadley loved watching all the boys "help" her open all her presents. This girl got SO spoiled and I loved it. So many dolls and much needed girlie toys.

She wanted so badly to eat the cake as soon as she blew out the candle. This girl knows what she wants!

She did not hesitate to start on the cake. She sat and ate the frosting for about ten minutes before she figured out the cake was underneath the frosting.

Where do I start with my baby at 1 year?
She has so many girlie features and a momma's girl
She will honestly makeout with anyone, caught her and her cousin Luke going at it many a times
She will break out laughing when you break out any doll
She tries so hard to play with her brother and even likes cars
She has huge blister on her thumb from sucking it at night
She cannot go to bed without a blanket and she is quite particular about which one, it has to be pink or Minnie mouse or Hayden's favorite monkey blanket.
She will eat ANY thing. Not an exaggeration. (she used to not eat some fruits but has come around.)
She can out eat her brother and sometimes her mother. Most the time when she is finished eating she will try to eat off Hayden's plate.
She will walk around all day holding your pinkie, but if you let go she immediately falls to the floor.
She still has no problem sleeping at night or naps as long as she has a blanket and a thumb
She has very good vocabulary that she adds to everyday, including momma, dadda, snack, oh no! Speg O, tree, pretty, whats'that, there go, etc.
She is more than obsessed with cups. She can see one across the room and V-line it to take a sip
She loves to throw fits, she is such a drama queen. She really knows what she wants and if you try and get in her way she will let you know, in a very loud voice.
She is huge for a girl her age. 1 year check up 25lbs! Hayden is only 26 1/2lbs.
When you yell at her for being naughty she will turn around and smile at you and go right back to what she was doing.
Hadley over all is such a bright, bubbly personality. She has a light about her. She has such a different personality than her brother. I am glad she is with us, to add some spice and life to the party in our lives. Oh and one of the best things to report about Hadley is SHE IS GETTING
LITTLE HAIR!

a glimpse

I am taking it slow getting back into things now I am back to Flordia. Pretty much I am to lazy to make much a post of my awesome trip, but here is a quick glimpse.

Judd's AWESOME concert. All you need to know... Love can build a bridge.

Grandpa with his only grand baby girl.

Santa Clause at the Ogden lights EQUALS disaster for my Florida kids. Hayden cried When he saw Santa. Then they both bawled the whole 20 minutes we were there because they were so cold( I swear it took 2 hours to prep them for 20 min trip!). But at Least Corbin got to ask Santa for that candy cane, thank goodness!

the kids got along great (most of the time) so awesome to have them all together.

Chick-fil-A Play ground. Are my sisters super cute!?

Of course keen had to get this picture, I think it was 1 in the morning that's why I look so great! But we are proud of our journey!
