The rumors are true.

Finally some video of Miss Hads crawling. Although she won't be winning any races any time soon...it's something. And hopefully enough to keep that damn doctor off our backs. Go Hads!!!

Sghetti.

"What mess?"
Not really sure the point of the bib.

Just like the rest of us...

Break up...
...& make up.

Too cool for school.

Here's Hads in her new shoes and new vest. For all you moms, head to Janie and Jack ASAP, they're having a great sale. At least it seems great when the regular price of items are like $58.oo.
Can't pass up a profile of this kid. And that creepy demon looking thing is Rudy.
No, she did not pull herself up. But this is much improved from the "lever".

Snow, snow, please stay.

So it's old news now, but it snowed on Monday and was gorgeous to wake up to. Here's my Joc/Lis photo attempt. Maybe I'll just stick to nursing.
Nothing like a chubby gal loving her snow days.

TDF.

I found these little gems at the Gap yesterday and HAD to buy them for my sweet little gal. She reached for them, so I knew they were exactly what she wanted (the girls got taste)...or maybe she was reaching for another Teddy Grahm. Either way, she got both. Are they not the cutest?!?! A tad big, but trust me, I'll be stuffing tissue in the toes and Hads will be sporting' these puppies in no time. Pics of her in them to follow, but I'm at work right now with nothing to do, so thought I'd share.

They heart Starbucks.

I love that sometimes cameras just catch the perfect moment. Here are the gals sharing a pumpkin scone.

Playing around.

Hads trying to open the drawers. She loves playing "open/close"...until we get a finger in there.
Loving on her Penny.
So exhausted after emptying her diaper bag (new fav thing to do) and the recycle bin.

Let's make a deal.

" But Zaide, PUHLEASE, can I have another piece of toffee. My other Grammie gives me everything I want, so come on!"
Hads sometimes we don't get everything we want. It's just the way it is.
Okay, okay. You can have ONE more.
Two girls just sucking on their toffee. Life is grand.
"Zaides, I would never say no to you if you wanted more toffee. So please never say no to me. See how much fun this is." "And my folks will never have to know."

Lunch Date.

Lauren stopped by the other day to enjoy Happy Hour with Hadley.
Hads was stoked.
After going drink for drink with their sippy cups, Lauren soon realized her cup was empty.
And when her mean Aunt wouldn't get her more juice (for fear that she would fall off the stool and crack her head open), Lauren got smart and did the old "switch-a-roo" with the cups.
Poor Hads was stumped.

So sneaky.

This clip goes along with the above story of Lauren stealing Hads full sippy cup. At the end of this clip, in case you can't tell, she whispers "Hads"...she's a smart one. She wouldn't want Hadley to hear in fear that she would take the cup back.

Go Fish.

Hads and I met Lis, Maddie, Sonya, and Zaide at the Seattle Aquarium last week. She was a first timer and enjoyed looking at all the fishies...but really loved people watching even more. A gal after my own heart.
Touching a fake octopus.
Zaides and Hads checking it out.
Maddie's a pro at this whole Aquarium thing.
The girls cuddling up to a faux seal.
And Hads giving it a little peck.
I think he may have kissed her back.

We thought it would be cute to have the gals share a stroller. They did not think it was such a great idea.

Tough Nut Scrumpy.

I just had to steal this pic of Jocie's nephew, Justin. He was "in the way" at the dog park the other day, and this was the result....even better, he was a the dog park with his Dad, so his poor mother came home to this shiner. If this is not the epitome of a TNS, I don't know what is. Thanks for letting me snag this pic Brittany!

Everyone's tryin'.

Oh Hads, crawling is so simple. Haven't you seen me zooming all over the place? It's a cinch!
Auntie Meg, I just don't think she's getting what I'm saying.
Okay, let's try something different. What about standing Hads, can you do that?
Oh Hadley, it's allright. Everyone still loves you...even if you are a stump.
Hey Hadley, how about trying the stairs...think you could do that? Now these puppies are fun!

Cruisin' for a bruisin'.

Hadley thinks it is SO much fun to throw food off of her highchair and watch Rudy eat it. Her mother does not.

She's not the sneakiest little thing, but why should she be if she never gets in trouble for it. But be guaranteed Rudy does...though his "timeout" doesn't last long.

"Here you go Rudes, I have a little more up here I'll get ya."
"Hey Rudy, where'd you go...I'm not done feeding you my dinner yet."

Pool party.

Val and I took the kiddos swimming today. Didn't love the idea of getting into a swimsuit myself, but did love the idea of seeing two little babes in one.
Hads rockin' the two piece. What's next, a belly ring?
Hadley, now you need to remember, I said you could borrow my old suit as long as you don't do potty in it.
Who says you can't suck a thumb in a bikini?

*PS Thanks for the pics I stole Val!

Brrrrr.

It was a cold one at the cabin this weekend. About 18-19 degrees.
But that didn't stop us from enjoying the cold. This was before Hadley had a complete meltdown and nearly froze to death. Seriously, her arms and legs were purple. Oops.
Loggie picking my nose for me.
B in cabin heaven. I'm starting to see a pattern here in Davis smiles.
