Well Hailey is 7.5 months old and I figured I should update our life adventures. Hailey has been such a great addition to our family she is so sweet and wonderful. She is smart, a quick learner and she has a happy and relaxed temperament and demeanor. She was born on August 5, 2012 after a LONG LONG labor and a C-section. We enjoy her so much and wonder what we ever did with our time before her. She is now a pro sitter and is learning to crawl. It is amazing how babies use their bodies and learn about how things work and move. She smiles and laughs easily and is for the most part a good sleeper. Here are some pictures of her and our silly family.

We really enjoy having her in our lives.
I have been very surprised at how many people ask me how I am adjusting to motherhood. I always answer "I love it!" and it is true! The other day I was thinking about the adjustment from working to staying home full time. It was a little hard but it has so much meaning and purpose. I feel like I am at a full time job I just get to work from home and this is not a 9-5 job it is a "24/7 even if you are dead tired, hungry, and sick you get to do your job" kind of job. And I have THE BEST JOB IN THE WORLD. Teaching a little person all the wonders life holds is the most precious thing.

It has definitely become a lot easier. I tell people, 4 months was easier and at 6 months it became really fun.
