Mom & Pops

My oh my, do we love this little gal.

Oatmeal anyone?

Hadley is getting good at this eating thing...kind of.

The backpack.

Hating it.
Loving it.
See Hads, it's fun to try new things.

...and exhausting.

Gettin' Smart.

The youngest member of "Oprah's Book Club".

Happy.

Rudy stopping by to say Hi.

The Fancy Narode Girls.

Hadley & Logan sharing the toys.
Hadley would never miss a photo op.
Big sis Tate keeping the girls in line.
"Here Hadley, have a fruit snack."
Hads getting a fabulous baby massage from Tater.

Don't worry Loggie, you're next.

A "beary" good morning.

Hads finally fits into her little bear jogging suit that Aunt Val gave her.
Lovin' it!
It's so funny looking like a bear on a run.
So, so cozy...and kept her dry.

H & M

Such big girls.

Madeline Anne
Sorry gals, are we boring you?
"Hey Maddie, lemme have a bite of that apple."
Hadley is going to make Maddie a "hugger", much to her mother's chagrin:).
"I said I want that cute apple hat...just give it to me and I'll let go."
"Okay, the choke hold won't work? I'm going to poke your eye out then."

"Ha! The "eye gouge" works everytime."

Thanks for sharing your hat Mads, as you can see, Hadley needs it a little more than you right now.

Betty Crocker.

Hads ecstatic to help her Mama bake cupcakes.
"Here Mom, need an extra hand...it's coated with drool, so the batter shouldn't stick to it."
"P.U., I think we may have burnt them Mom!"
Hadley so proud of her cakes.
She was such a good girl she even got a little taste of batter...and did not have an anaphylactic reaction, which was a bonus.

She did it!!!

Okay, so she actually rolled over about 2 weeks ago, but since only Ryan saw it, I decided it doesn't count. But she finally did it for me and I was so excited...so, so excited that I wasn't even able to snap a quick pic. So now you guys are just going to have to take my word for it.

Yipes Stripes.

Hads is feeling pretty darn cool in cousin Lauren's hand-me-downs.

Hadley's 3 favorite things...

...a binky, a blanky, and a buddy. Kind of a scary little buddy (now that I look at his sharp fangs and freaky hair), but keeps her happy...and most importantly, quiet.

The binky smile.

She can smile with it in, but can't manage to keep it in at night. What's the deal Hads?!

ANTM?

I think Hadley will definitely be trying out for America's Next Top Model 2027. You've got the pose down sis! Actually the pose is looking a little more Playboyish:)?!

Patent this.

The best parenting idea we've had yet!
