Hawaii

We had so much fun in Hawaii! The time change was hard on Hailey the first couple of days, but she didn't mind being tired when she could swim all day.

She pretty much swam from 9 am to 1 pm, ate lunch, took a nap, ate dinner, went swimming or for a walk along the beach, and then went to bed. It was the perfect vacation and we had a ball.

Hailey's first time in the ocean. She was so funny the morning she woke up in Hawaii and Greg opened the shads in the hotel her whole face lit up as she gawked at the beautiful ocean.

She liked the sand better than the water, and who can blame her with a chance to get as dirty as ever. I am still finding sand on her scalp.

Check out the beautiful sunset behind Hailey

Hailey saw this Stuffed Gorilla and thought it was her long lost friend. She loves animals, especially when they are stuffed, so she can pet them.

Halloween

Family Pumkin Carving Night!

Hailey was so funny about it, she thought the guts were so gross, she would only touch them with a spoon. But she loved drawing on the pumpkins.

Our little lady bug eating a hot dog and Grandpa Andrus' famous Haloween night party.

She had tons of fun Trick or Treating, and by the end of the night she had it down. Saying "tick teat" in her little voice and then, "Tank too!"

She was so cute and of course she loved the candy, as you can see she has it all over her face.

Go Utes!

Our Utes are undefeated and Hailey love's to cheer them on at every game.

Sorry the video is the wrong way, but just turn your head.

Pumpkin Patch

Hailey had a ball at the pumpkin patch!

Farmer Hailey on the tractor. She had so much fun she didn't want to get off.

Let Them Eat Cake

We went to Drew's birthday party on Saturday, where Hailey and Kendra ate so much cake that they were on a serious sugar high the rest of the day.

Here is Chloe, Kendra and Hailey watching Finding Nemo (Hailey's very favorite movie)

they actually watched the whole movie and let us Mommies and Daddies play games. It was a great night!

An announcement

Well, Hailey is going to be a big sister. I had my first Dr. appointment today and the baby is growing well and has a strong heart beat. We shall expect our new bundle of joy around April 28th.

The Zoo with cousin Logan

Hailey wasn't too into smiling at the zoo, but cousin Logan and she had a great time making the animal noises. Hailey is a crack up because she is fearless. She would get as close to the animals as possible and Logan kept saying "scary". They balanced each other out well. Once again Hailey is in love with rides. Her favorite thing at the zoo was the carousel, and when we got off she screamed as hard as she could, just to let me know that she was not done.

Hailey's New Obsession

Hailey must take at least one bubble bath a day!

Michigan

We went to Michigan this weekend for the University of Utah game. It was so much fun! The plane ride was long, but so worth it. We left Hailey at Grandma and Grandpa Andrus's, and for the first time since Hailey was born, Greg and I were alone. It was so nice to not have to worry about nap time and making sure that the kido was happy. I almost didn't know what to do with myself.

The game was a lot of fun and very, very HOT! The stadium holds 108,000 people and is dug into the ground, so you are shoulder to shoulder and stuck in the sun with no cross breeze. I am sure it is nice and snug in the winter, but at only 78 degree's I had sweat dripping down for almost the full four hours.

The Ute's looked great for the first half and then they faded badly. We were lucky that we won. It was still a lot of fun. It is officially football season. Yeah! and urgh! It is a love hate relationship between the two of us.

Breaking Dawn

OK... Breaking Dawn...I LOVED IT! I could not put it down. Even though I had a deadline to finish it before our book club retreat, I still could not read it fast enough. It was so intense and it had a wonderful ending. Some of the girls think that there may be a 5th book, but I doubt it.

We had a our first book club retreat at our Deer Hollow Cabin. We had so much fun as we talked and romanced over Edward and Bella. So Fun! Thanks Girls!
