San Francisco Jelly Bellies and More...

On the Fairy

This is a mounted table that Hailee kept trying to pick up. She was such an drama queen and a showoff everywhere we went. She was grunting and squating, but it never budged.

In San Francisco




We spent one day in San Francisco and it was a blast! Hailee was sure tuckered out. We took a fairy over and she wouldn't sleep at all but ran around the boat saying hi to everyone and trying to take the boat apart!.


Hailee and I on Pier 39... a very cool local!

At the Jelly Belly Factory






We went to the Jelly Belly Factory in Napa and had a blast! They really know how to sell their candy!! While we were there we at lunch and they made these fun smiley fries. Hailee liked them a lot and she would smile at them and say hi, then she would chomp off their eyes or something. It was pretty funny.

BOOMTOWM

Taking turns going round and round!



Hailee rode the carousel in Boomtown a few times and loved every second. The carousel was 100 years old this year and so it was FREE!!! Lucky us.....She loves horses and would blow her lips the whole time!

Hailee and Grandma ready to load up and head home home. They were great travel buddies!!!!! I just hope my Grandma thought so??????

My little cleaning lady!



Hailee is obsessed lately with doing whatever I am doing. She doesn't like to wait for me to finish or for me to help her. She just wants the vacuume, or the broom, or the laundry NOW.... so hopeful and yet frustrating at the very same time!!!!!!


Althought I think it is cute watching her help I can't stand the thought of her touching my broom because of course she ends up examining the WHOLE thing. I took it away and she is throwing a fit. She is getting quite good at fits. She has mastered the arch and stiff body. Now we are moving on to the piercing scream and head banging. Occassionally she will go all out and hit and throw things. I guess we can say she is officially my kid......

Our fun weekend!!!


We went to Curt's bros Chad and Cody's football game on Friday and had a BLAST!!! It was an awesome game and brought back the highschool football night "feel." -atleast for me.... Hailee had fun seeing her cousins and eating Tomatoes------fyi------a BAD thing for babies-----..... anyway

The game was fun and they totally won and made it exciting.



Saturday Curt had planned some serious fence-fixing, but ended up doing it on his own. When I finally got a babysitter, it started lightening and we decided not to risk it.




Before the babysitter Hailee and I played in the sun and had a lot of fun with her pool. She wouldn't even wait for the water to warm up. I watched her and laughed all day because I can't believe she is mine!! Enjoy the photos, I know that is what really mattters.

Planting 2009


Hailee and I rode in the tractor with Curt only once this spring. She is much too busy to handle too much time in the tractor. She was pretty sweet to whipe down everything even though it was an endless task.
This girl loves to clean and I hope it sticks around!!!





First pigtails!






She has officially learned the meaning behind the camera and the purpose of "cheese" I am so excited each day to wake up with this beauty. She makes me laugh constantly. We went shoe shopping today and she is already a perfect little shopper. She is chatty chatty to everyone until the come to talk to her, then it is shy girl. She gives lots of loves, whistles, locates body parts on the face, and loves to play with dolls and push her stroller, shopping cart, and other various rollers around the house.
I still can't believe she is 1!
I am so grateful to be her mom and to watch her become such a loving and wonderful person!
