Hunter 1st Swim

Halie loves to go swimming at the condo. Brett's parents have a condo on the other side of town. We go swimming there quite often, because it doesn't cost any money. Halie had been asking to go swimming, so we decided to go. On the way over she must have fallen asleep, because when we got there this is what she looked like.

This was Hunter's first trip to the pool. He loved it. He is our chill baby. He just goes with the flow of things. He never even cried, or made a peep even when Halie would splash him. Once we got out I changed his clothes and he fell asleep.

Friends

In the middle of town the city built this cool little water park. it is just a little stream with big rocks, and a billion kids. Halie asks everyday if we can go to main street park. We invited our good friends to go with us one day. They have a little girl named Shelby who is Halies same age. They are so cute together. They get along really well. They had such a blast at the park.

Shelby lives just up the street. Halie asks all the time can we walk to Shelby's I want to play. Yes there is the cheeser again.

As I have mentioned in the past Halie loves her tu tu. For some reason when any boys come over to our house they end up wearing the tu tu's and the dress up princess shoes. Most of the dads tell them to take it off and tell them boys don't wear that kind of stuff. It is so funny. I don't know if Halie tells them to wear it, or if they choose on their own. Here is Halie's good friend Cache wearing the dress ups. Halie thinks she is the princess and the boys are her princes.

Halie has really been into Little Rascals the movie lately. There is a part where these girls are in a ballerina concert. Every time that part is on she makes me pause it, so she can go her tu tu and her crown.

Soft

Lately Halie has been really ruff. No matter how many times I say be soft, calm, be nice she can't. Her niceness is few and far between. When I saw this I just about fell over. We have been telling her one day Hunter will be beating up on you. When that day comes we wont protect you, because of how mean you were to him. She tells us I am the big sister. What she doesn't realize is Hunter is getting big fast.

She really loves him she just can' t be soft. We realized she has been hanging out with a bunch of boys lately. We think that is why she has been little ruff. We are trying to play with more girls now.

Smiles

I think this is my new favorite picture of Hunter. He is such a happy baby as long as he is fed. Hunters favorite thing to do is eat. He is starting to roll to his sides. He is getting so strong he can hold his head up forever.

Hunter loves to fall asleep on Brett.

Cozy coupe

Some friends bought their little girl one of these cars a couple years ago. Every time we go to their house they fight over this car. We looked to buy Halie one, but they were pretty expensive. Last week we went to a yard sale. This car was the first thing Halie found and would not get out. The lady doing the sale told Brett it looks like you will be buying it. We got it for $10. I think it was worth it. What a cheeser.

Brett and I wash our cars weekly. I love to be outside and I love to have a clean car. So we are washing Brett's cop car, and here comes Halie with her car. She asked if we could wash hers next. She got the washcloth and soapy water and started cleaning. Anyone who knows Halie well knows she loves to clean. She didn't get that from Brett.

Brett totally got into it with her. I got left to finish both cars on my own.

Hunter wishing he was playing in the water too.

Petting Zoo

I know it has been awhile since I've posted, so today I have lots to show you.

A few weeks ago Brett had training in SLC. I took the kids and went to Orem to visit. While we were there Nanny Bart took us to the Thanksgiving Point petting zoo. It was so much fun. Halie is really into animals right now.

Halie loved feeding the goats. Since we went to Florida Halie loves goats she says the are her favorite animal. In Florida we visited the animal kingdom. They had goats and sheep's roaming around for people to pet. I thought she would be a big chicken, and she wasn't at all. She did not want to leave. While we were at the petting zoo she found the goats first and just wanted to feed them. Thanks Nanny Bart!!

Cutie pies

I cant believe my baby is 2 months old. We took Hunter to his 2 month doctor appointment last week. He weighs 12 pounds and is 23 inches long. Holy cow!! He has gained over 4 pounds, and has grown 3 inches since he was born. Hunter LOVES to eat. He would spend all day eating if I would let him. You can tell he eats just by looking at those big fat cheeks. I think he might be a big boy.

He has been smiling controllable for 2 weeks now. His little personality is coming out. He is very strong he holds his head up all on his own. He has been trying to hold on to things like my hair. He is very alert, he loves looking at everything. He loves to talk to us too. He talks to Halie the most. She sits and tells him stories and he just smiles and talks back to her. She gets to excited. She always tells us she loves her little brother.

As you can see she loves him. Sometimes I really wonder what he thinks. She kinda smothers him a little.
