Music to my ears.

Maybe we're not going to need that college fun after all. I think we may have the next Joan Jett here!

Finally a boy to play with.

Meet Kassidy! She is one of my friends from the UWMC's new baby, she's only 6 weeks old. Hard to remember them EVER being that small. Ruth kept saying how she can't wait until Kassidy is Hadley and Fynn's age. Ruth, I hear ya sister, I was the same way...those new babes are a lot of work (Sarah, it's Ruth Clayson I met with and she says HI!).
Here is Hadley's boyfriend Fynn...another baby from a friend at work. I'm thinking this may have been right after him and Hadley bonked heads and Hadley was crying her head off. He's 10 months old.
"Hey Fynn, you better keep those hands where my Dad can see them."
"Um, have you learned to share yet, because I would LOVE a bite of that puppy."

When the cats away...

...the mice will play.
Rudy was never allowed on the couch pre-Hadley...but since his world has been completely turned upside down since she arrived, we've let a few rules slip. This is what I come home to now whenever I leave the house for a few hours. And obviously he could care less, because he doesn't even move when I walk in the door. Poor Rudy.

I heart Santy.

Hadley was so excited to see Santa...actually, she was clueless, but her Mom was VERY excited.
Checking him out.
"You mean you'll give me anything I ask for?"
"Okay, I better look extra cute."
"Oh Santa, this is so stressful just thinking of one thing I want the most. Let me think for awhile."

A busy little day.

After our pics with Santa Zaide and I met Baba and Dad for lunch and lots of shopping (the boys did not participate in the shopping). Hadley is a gal after my own heart, look how excited she is.
Don't worry Hads, if Santa doesn't bring you what you want...this guy will.
Both girls in Holiday decor.
Too much fun for this little one.
But she rallied once we got to the Gap.

Santa and his girls.

Kip, Lis, and Madeline met us downtown yesterday to get pics with her cousin for Zaide.
Girls rule.
Although this Santa looks nice, he was rather mean and very bossy. Took the girls awhile to actually smile, I'm sure he was pinching them or something.
In total awe.
Funny Uncle Kip.

The Queen of the Tub.

Hads is lying down in the tubby...and smiling. First time!
Oh Miss Smiles, you're too much!

Go Cougs!

My uncle Ryan (a UW grad) bet me that the Dawgs would kill the Cougs...LOSER! So he had to eat a Cougar cream chocolate donut after the Cougs beat his dear Huskies. From the looks of that backwards "L", I'm thinking maybe Ry is a Coug after all:).

Faker, faker.

Hads wasn't feeling so well up at the cabin last weekend. Snotty nose, cruddy cough, and a very sore little throat (which is kind of nice because her cry is miniscule and kind of Demi Moore like). I've always liked raspy voices.
Then she realized the camera was out and somehow pulled through.
Hadley, you are a quite a ham.
Maybe Zaide just brings out the best in you, or maybe you're just delirious because it's 4:30am.

Even a smile while drinking a bottsie. The gal is talented.

Can't get enough.

Greeting from Kachess!!! The weekend after Thanksgiving a bunch of family came up to the cabin and it was so much fun. So here are lots of pics to prove a good time was had by all!
So many toys, so little time (actually, such a little attention span).
Dad and Hads taking a rest. She wasn't feeling so hot, so there was lots of snuggle time.
Rockin' out!
Sick of the camera Hads?

More family fun.

Hads having a quiet moment with Baba.
Party Animal.
Cozy with Auntie Val.
Grammy n Me.
Tatum had quite the crush on Griffin, actually all the little gals were quite fond of him. But it's no wonder why.

H.J. & L.C.

Some wild, crazy gals.
"Okay, so Hadley you need to stand up and jump for this thing to work. It's called the Toddler Bobbler, so start bobbing sister."
"It's okay Hads, you are just a baby after all...and the less you move around the more toys I have all to myself."
Quick water break from Coach Lauren.
Lauren, did you learn this wrestling move from the Wiggles?

The Fancy Narodes.

Hads, Lootie, and Loggie.
All four gals. I cannot believe how impossible it is to get a good picture of three little ones.
Logan trying to teach Hads how to crawl. But I think Hadley could have cared less, she loved having Pam all to herself.
Tater Tot, cute as always.
Tate was such a fabulous helper with Hadley. She's got the big sis role down pat.

Gobble, Gobble.

Grammy and Hads getting excited for some turkey! Mr. Martha Stewart, along with his sidekick Val, made quite the feast.
Lauren belly-up to the bar. Cute peeps.
Fancy Schmancy Hads.
