Hailey's 1/2 birthday and other pics

Our baby girl celebrated her 1/2 birthday this month....we cannot believe it! Here are her stats from her 6 month appointment: 17lbs, 11oz (81st %ile), 25.5in. long (40 %ile). At 6 months, Jackson was 18lbs, 10oz and 27in. Hailey is trying to keep up with him :)

Happy 1/2 Birthday, Hailey!

Loves puzzles

Riding the train at a good friend's birthday party. He went around and around the park and loved it!

There was also a fire engine at the party

Soooo cool!!

Working on his bike

Jackson showing Hailey the music book from music class. So cute!

The first snow this year....Jackson still wanted to get the newspaper in the morning....brrr!!

Hailey in Jackson's old Rockies' cap. She looks so much like he did when he was a baby in the hat :)

So sweet....makes me smile :)

Tackling with giggles :)

End of summer and Hailey is 5 months!

Our summer quickly came to an end! Hailey is 5 months old here....the pics show some of our fun :)

Jackson's first day of school...it was a cool, fall day.

The second day of school was much warmer :)

Our happy Miss Hailey

Hailey's favorite thing to do these days.....stick out her tongue :)

Cutie pies!

There's her smile :)

Buddies!

Learning how to play the guitar and music box.

Just jammin'!

4 months old

Our little Hailey is growing so incredibly fast! Here is the scoop from her 4 month appointment at the beginning of August: 14 pounds 3 ounces (she was 10 pounds 6 ounces at her 2 month appointment) and 24.25 inches long (was 22 inches). She is a growing machine! She is trying to keep ahead of Jackson's curve :) She is such a good and happy baby. Lots of smiling, giggling (I've been trying to post videos, but have continued to encounter problems....I'm still trying!) and "talking"! She has lots to say and is very social :)

Hailey is such a good eater (as you can tell!) and we've been given the ok to started rice cereal and veggies! As you can tell from the first picture, she wasn't quite sure what to think of it....

What is in my mouth!


Oooh....I guess it's kind of good!

Buddies!

Hey!

Trying out the Bumbo....it's a fun view of things in here!

Jackson decided to as well!

Cheese!

Relaxing at the pool.

Hi!

Smiling at my great big brother!

He loves to talk with Hailey....it melts my heart!

Jackson is such a big help....he likes to help feed Hailey.

Jackson turns 3 1/2!

Since Jackson was born, we've made the tradition of celebrating his half birthdays.....it's just a fun thing to celebrate in the summer time and makes the time in between the other birthdays go by a little faster. We can't believe our little boy turned 3 1/2 on July 7th! Time is truly going by so quickly and Jackson is becoming such a big boy. He is still so sweet, helpful, smart, funny, and has a wonderful personality....he is also a great older brother. We are so incredibly lucky!!

Happy 3 1/2 Birthday, Jackson! We love you so much :)

Fun & 3 months old

We continue to have lots of fun around our house! We cannot believe little Hailey is 3 months old! She is such a happy baby and continues to melt our hearts with her adorable smile!

Jackson has become the t-ball king! He loves to play daily and has hit quite a few over the fence!

4th of July

We had a super fun 4th of July again this year! We participated in our neighborhood parade where kids decorate their bikes, wagons, etc. Jackson decided to decorate his big wheel and the double stroller this year :) Then we had a BBQ at the pool with the rest of the Martini family....it was a great day!

Getting ready for the big parade

Showing off their red, white & blue!
