Oh, hi.

So, my blog pretty much still looks like crap, but you're stuck with it for now because I can't figure out how to make it better. Like anybody reads it anyway...

I thought I would do a post about the things Hadley is up to now that is 2 and how she is changed.

• Last time we checked, at 23 months, Hadley weighed 22 lbs and was 33 inches long.
• She is still in diapers. Size 4.
• She has well over 200 words, and seems to be learning more and more every day and is starting to make sentences.
• She is 2t shirts and pants are still iffy. Some 18 months, some 24 months.
• She wears a size 5 shoe now. 
• She is obsessed with cats and cows.
• She got way too much stuff for her birthday and she is definitely wearing those toys out.
• Her appetite hasn't changed too much. She is still pretty picky and we have slacked horribly with her healthy diet since being home. She has gotten a lot of treats from Nana and Papaw.
• She pretty much doesn't nap anymore unless she is in the car, so that's means she is a very cranky toddler half of the time. Terrible 2's in full swing.
• But, she is also very sweet and loves to give hugs and kisses without being prompted.

Blog Re-design

I thought I would re-do the blog, but it turned out to be harder than I thought. So, for now you are stuck with some lovely Blogger template because I completely suck at this. Thanks!

Hadley's 2nd birthday!

I can't believe Hadley's birthday has come and gone. You spend so much time planning for the party and it's over so fast.

We spent all day decorating and getting things ready and Hadley spent all day obsessing over the balloons. She carried them around all day and had a major fit when we had to take them away to tie them to things. We just had family over for burgers and cake. I am really happy with how my decorations came out. I worked so hard on them.

My MIL had the cake made by a neighbor and it turned out so well!

Hadley had her very first hot dog, which I still cut down the middle. Ha!

Giving baby Piper her paci.

So, I now have a 2 year old! It's crazy! I didn't cry like I thought I would. It's still sad that my baby girl has grown up so fast. 

I have gotten behind

Usually my problem with blogging is that I have nothing to talk about. Well, I have actually had a lot going on, I'm just not really good with words. Tomorrow is Hadley's birthday and I have been spending a lot of times working on decorations for that and getting things all together. I will make a special birthday post after her party. We have been spending most of our days outside riding the 4-wheeler and helping papaw work on the tractors. It's pretty much her favorite thing to do now. She wants to be outside all the time. So, I thought I would do a photo dump on y'all to hold you over until her birthday post!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Labor Day weekend...a little late.

We had a very busy and fun Labor Day Weekend. On Saturday we took Hadley to the river and she loved it! That kid loves water. I didn't think to bring a swim diaper and it's a wonder her diaper didn't explode. It was hilarious.

Later that night we went to Athens and watched the fireworks. Hadley was extremely overtired, but she loved the fireworks. She wasn't scared at all.

Our fun didn't stop there. Monday, Labor Day, we went to Dollywood and Hadley loved that too. She did so good until the very end. Most of the time she just sat in her stroller and watched all the people. I finally got her out towards the end to let her play in the kiddie area and ride some rides. She loved it!
