Sick Haelley

Last week, Haelley was sick with a double ear infection that produced a high fever and stuffy nose. Very concerned I took her to the doctor. She is now on an antibiotic and doing much better. Today she went from sitting to pulling herself up almost to her feet, I was so proud. Praise God for healing her so quickly!

Playing Piano

Haelley practices the piano diligently every day, she is pretty good at it too! It is so much fun to see the surprised look on her face when she actually causes the instrument to make a noise.

Haelley playing air hockey

For Christmas we selflessly delved into our bank account to get Haelley an air hockey table. What can I say, she wanted one! Here she is giving it a try.









She was in awe at the sheer size of the table and the fact that is kept blowing freezing cold air over her hands was a matter of great confusion.














Today she decided to taste test the equipment in honor of a visit from Aunt Stacey and Uncle John at the same time!

It really doesn't taste bad if you can get over the fuzzy after feeling.

More Pics for Grandma

This is Haelley's six month picture. She has grown rather fond of Eeyore, especially his tail and back. The smile is very genuine and you can see how long her hair is getting. Happy half-birthday Haelley!













Eeyore steals the scene again! Here he is playing peek-a-boo. Haelley knows when the camera is in her face, she is supposed to smile, she does that well!

The Many Hair Styles of Haelley Erin

This is after wearing a ponytail, it was pretty cute and, I think, a relief to Haelley.




















She did this all by herself. This is her with no hair!




















And this is her with no head. Peek-a-boo Miss Haelley!















The following pictures were taken on the 24th, the most recent ones. Looking at them, these are really Miss Haelley with all of her personality. I think that I will post these pictures without much comment, they really say it all.

Friends and Fun Faces

This is next door neighbor Kaleigh. Kaleigh was born a couple months after Haelley, but is very advanced. She and her Mommy come to visit sometimes and it's fun to see Haelley and Kaleigh progress.














Smile! The nipple is more fun than the food inside!














Smiles!














And more smiles!














Some people say I'm not a happy baby, But they haven't told me that!

Video Games With Daddy

Haelley loves to roll around on the floor and play with whatever she bumps into. This time it was Daddy and you can only imagine how thrilled he was...














She never seems to know when to play with Dad and when he is doing something far more important. :) Daddy is very good at NCAA March Madness and has his own all star team. Haelley loves to watch and help.



















She plans to be as good as Daddy when she grows up. Right now, she has other uses for her controller!














It tastes really good, and the cords are even more fun than the controller. (Babies, do not try this at home without constant supervision from your Mommy)
