Greg and I had our beautiful baby girl Haley Elizabeth at 5:42 AM on March 8, 2009. She was 7lbs 2oz and 21 inches long. We are absoultely in love and mesmerized by this beautiful creature that has graced our lives. She just turned 6 months a few days ago and it is incredibly hard to believe that half a year has passed since she joined us! We actually just got her 6 month pictures done with Kaitlin from 2point5d photography and look forward to posting some here for you to see soon!
Haley has started on solids, FINALLY! I've been trying for about a month and a half to get her to eat them! The doctor said that I should try having someone else feed her so Greg gave sweet potatoes a try and it was a hit! We're now trying to back up and get some rice cereal in with it as well in the hopes of calming her digestive system down a little bit. God put odor in the poopoo... (If you're not familiar with Bill Cosby's sketch on family you need to see it!)
Aunt Libbie visited over labor day weekend and we made window treatments! I love the fabric, it has dragonflies on it! I miss my friend!
I enjoyed sewing so much (on my grandmother's sewing machine that I actually LEARNED to sew on) that I went and bought more fabric and made a tablecloth to go with it :)
I realize that we call her Aunt Libbie, even though she isn't her aunt. Haley will ask me someday why she has about 8 more aunts than she is supposed to. I figure I'll explain it then. We also decided to get some free Chick-fil-a. If you wear a team jersey or logo they'll give you a free sandwich so I exploited my child for chicken :)
We're preparing for the fall series of visitors. Greg's parents are coming next weekend, followed by Sarah in October, and my mom maybe in October as well. I'm sure Lyssa will visit somewhere in there too. So hopefully I'll have pictures of Haley and all her "fans" in the days to come. Well I'm going to see if I can get my hubbie away from football and watch a movie!
