Christmas

We had an early Christmas party with Jeff's side of the family last Sunday. Here is a pic of Grandma Karla, Grandpa Steve, Anna and Haley... The whole family... Papa and his darling granddaughters Anna and Haley...

Haley was a bit scared of Santa and wouldn't sit on his lap without her daddy...

Haley's new princess tricycle from Great Grandma Marilyn and Great Grandpa Harold...

Fun cousin picture!

Christmas cookies!

All the bakers! Haley with Momo, Aunt Juliana and Mommy. My mom spent hours making the aprons for us all for our annual cookie baking day! Haley helping cut out the sugar cookie shapes...

Helping Momo decorate with sprinkles...

December fun

Haley sound asleep in a department store while Jeff was fitted for a suit... Hello from Haley's house!

So silly on the stairs!

Checking out all of the ornaments on Haley's tree - they sure don't stay on very long! :)

For Haley's Christmas present (well, one of them), I painted two walls of her bathroom a bright yellow color to match the ducky theme.

Haley and Raimey

Haley's friend Raimey and my friend Nicole came to visit the day after Thanksgiving. Raimey is only two months older but look at all of her beautiful hair! Haley's got a little bit of growing to do :) Nicole reading a story to both girls...

Haley showing Raimey our Christmas tree lights. The best view is from underneath!

Peekaboo!!

November

Happy Thanksgiving! Haley and Anna giving Grandma & Papa an early Christmas present - a framed picture of their beautiful granddaughters!

Happy birthday Bapa! Haley gave him puppets for the puppet theater he is building in their basement - they are already enjoying them so much!

Too funny! Haley loved the cheese-head hat from Aunt Juliana and Uncle Matt...until she actually had to put it on :)

Hunting weekend

Playing with Auntie Lala... Papa with all the kiddos...

Haley and I in our Halloween costumes :)

Anna in her ladybug costume!

Haley and Gavin

Over Halloween weekend we took a trip to the mountains for the men to hunt and the girls & kids to hang out :) Haley (20 months) and her friend Gavin (14 months) spent a lot of time playing together. Here they are investigating the technology available... Can you see me? I'm hiding in the tent!

Both of them were monkeys for Halloween!

Haley and Gavin love books so if I was reading to Haley, Gavin would climb on my lap too and if Michelle was reading to Gavin, Haley would do the same.
