Hadley 2.5 Years Old


December 15, 2017

Hadley turned 2.5 years old in December.  She has developed quite the personality.  Here are some fun facts:

*You want to do everything that Brax does.  You love being around him all the time and especially like to jump on the bed with him.  He loves you so much and protects you.

*You are very good at putting on your own pants and socks.  You can take off all your clothes by yourself.

*You love to play with play doh and read books.

*You really like to ride your strider bike that you call a motorcycle.

*Your comfort objects are your blankie and stuffed George pig.  Also, you suck your thumb whenever you are upset or tired.

*You like to watch Peppa Pig and videos on Youtube.

*You can spell your first name correctly.

*You can recognize the letter "H", count to eleven, and know your shapes and colors.

*You don't cry very often.

*You are a daddy's girl.

*Raegan is your very best friend at school.

*You are quite the talker and speak in complete sentences most of the time.

*You are being very stubborn about potty training.  We will try again over spring break.

*You immediately wake up as the happiest person in the world.

*You want to be carried around the house often.

*You are getting some hair, but not much.

*You love baked beans.  You will pretty much try anything, but you always seem to want baked beans.  You also really enjoy donuts, strawberries, hummus, carrots, pizza, and chips.  You really like to eat whatever is on Daddy's plate.

*We love you so much!  I cannot even imagine life without you.


Last Swimming Lesson

In October, the kids had their last swimming lesson for the year.  I need to look at getting them enrolled for late spring before we start spending more time in the pools.




Christmas at Home

Here are some pictures of our Christmas at home.  The kids enjoyed opening presents although Brax had to show Hadley how to ride her Minnie Mouse motorcycle before she was brave enough to try.  Now, they just fight over it.  Brax's favorite was of course his Skylander figures.











Ice Hockey

We went to watch my first cousin's daughter play ice hockey and met my other first cousin at the rink.  The kids enjoyed playing together and experiencing a hockey game.  Brax even wants to go ice skating now.







Breckenridge

Yesterday, we went to Breckenridge.  We finally got to sled although Hadley was too scared to try it.  Then, we met my friends to go swimming and looked at the snow sculptures.  We had fun and were exhausted by the time we went to bed!

McDonald's

Here the kids are having lunch at a favorite!

Family Night

At my school, there was a family night that was about being healthy.  I decided to take the kids.  We did some yoga, talked to dental students, and danced.  It was a late but fun night!





Sibling Love

Brax is pretty good at trying to teach Hadley.  Here they were watching ABC videos.

Nebraska Fun

I was not good about taking pictures, but we had a good time in Nebraska celebrating Christmas with my parents and Wade's mom.  The kids enjoyed seeing their cousins, too.
