Allana and Hailey this morning...

Watching cartoons together :) We get Allana for Thanksgiving this year. It's a short, but, very nice visit with her. Hailey and Allana are so close!

See my curls?

They show themselves when my hair is wet!

Hailey's first bubble bath..

She bent over.. took a big bite of bubbles... and coughed them out!

Trying to figure out what these "bubbles" do.

Just realized they "Pop"

Mommy's actually letting me stand up in the bath!

Dora is my best friend!

Hello

Hailey's shown a lot of improvement on her understanding skills the past couple of weeks. She's also refined her Tantrum throwing abilities... throwing her head and bonking it when not getting her way. We're working on "being nice" to her toys. Growing up is so hard to do :)

Some pictures I meant to post...

Mama's lil' cowgirl :)

I love "Hay" in this hat!!

The first time she really got a close look at a dog! She was VERY nervous.
Sorry they're a bit fuzzy... they were taken with my phone, not my camera!

Getting so big too fast!

Hailey's been brushing her own teeth for a while now. She chews on the toothbrush & her teeth/gums actually get clean. Today I said to her "You're done Hay, let Mama have your toothbrush.." she actually stuck her hand out and gave it to me! Whoa! Usually, she needs a moment to calm down (cries and pulls it back away from me). She did the same when cutting her nails.. actually stuck out her hand and smiled! What a GREAT day!! It's nice to have happy moments... so many medical problems etc. has surfaced within the family and close friends this past year. My Dad aka. "Grandpa Sorensen" is recovering~ he had a heart attack this past weekend :( We love you Dad/Grandpa.. get better real quick! Sure hope this coming year brings health to all I know and love. Looking forward to the holidays and definitely looking forward to a brighter future (I hope :).

Oops.. caught her in the act!
