Uncle Neal came down for a visit since returning from his mission. Whitney and Travis found a way to keep themselves entertained while we chatted. Yes, that is every shoe in the house. Luckily they are becoming decent cleaners too ;)

Here is my smiling Hailey. She definately has lungs when she cries . . . thank goodness she's happy most of the time! I love when she gives me a big grin. She's a whopping 12.5 pounds - accourding to her 2 month check-up. Way to pack in on woman= more sleep time for me at night!

Whitney discovered she could decorate her hair with markers.

Kids all dressed up and ready for church. I think its so funny that they love getting all dressed up - are these really my kids?

2 months

Well, apparently Hailey really wanted me to post. I was going to last night, but chose to go to bed instead . . . so here I am at 3 in the morning with a baby wide awake. At least she gives me a huge grin every time I tell her to go to sleep. This is her second time doing this in the last month. But honestly, I can't complain, because she has been an amazing sleeper compared to my other to children at this age. And if your wondering why I don't make her cry it out - I attempted, but after 1 1/2 hours, it looks like this kid would cry all night. It reminds me of when I couldn't sleep at 3 in the morning when I was pregnant. At least I have a kid to show for sleeplessness now.

Here is an attempt to get a picture of all the kids. Hailey is 2 months now!

Here is how most of the pictures turned out.

Last Saturday Aaron hurt himself playing basketball - pretty bad this time. We think he has a herniated disk = mucho pain and discomfort. The positive side - I got to have him home all week. The negative side - watching him go nuts not being able to do anything without hurting. He was such an amazing husband despite his pain, still trying to help with Hailey as much as possible. My favorite thing he did = he let me sleep in almost everyday this week. Oh, how happy that makes me.

Travis got some new pajamas this week that I'm in love with. They make me smile every time I look at him. Here is buzz:

And here is woody:

It's too cute to hear him say "to infinity and beyond" or "there's a snake in my boot." Love this kid.

In other random news, I finally played soccer again and it felt fantastic. There is something about playing sports that makes my life complete :) How nice it is to move, workout, and run again!

Whitney and Travis spent the entire Saturday playing outside with friends. They were in heaven. Travis looks forward to Saturday all week because nobody has school and he can stay up all day to play with everyone. I love having amazing neighbors with great kids! Here's Whitney all set for Sunday - curlers in place and having one last Popsicle before bed.

It's a miracle! I think Hailey is drifting to sleep! She is too cute, how lucky I feel to have her. She is now smiling, almost laughing, and talking more than ever. She melts my heart with her huge grin. Some day I hope to capture it on camera. Guess that means I'm done. Happy Sunday everyone. Here's hoping for more sleep!
