Haleyisims

This week we tried to take advantage of daylight savings by going to the park after dinner. In case we forget where it is, Haley kindly reminds us which way to go to get there. She likes to swing really high and wants Jackson on the swing next to her.



Apparently I don't make her go high enough so she always asks for Daddy to push her higher


Jackson doesn't go as high but I think he is fine with it. He loves his swing at home so why should the park swing be any different? Hey there....this is fun!


After so much fun at the park the kids crash pretty hard. I've been pretty late to work lately and it's easy to see why. This is the scene in the morning about 5 minutes before we should be leaving. Jackson managed to get his clothes on before falling back asleep and all Haley did was turn around in the bed. It always looks like a bomb went off in our house in the mornings :)

Haley has been asking for some crazy dinners lately. Usually M&Ms and Popsicles. The other day she wanted it for breakfast too. The mean parents we are don't let her get her way always so she just has to settle for Popsicles for dessert. Say Cheese...

Jackson tried out a new toy this week, the jumper! Haley LOVED this toy and Jackson does too. Can you tell by the smile on his face?

And the person that lights up Jackson's face the most is his big sister Haley. Anytime she comes around he has a huge smile on his face. She loves him too. She's trying to teach him about the piano on his toy and it's hard to tell but Jackson is smiling away.

Boy I love this toy!!!

Everyday Haley makes us laugh so hard. Here are a few of the Haleyisims from the past few weeks:

Episode 1

While at Little Gym Haley tells me she has to go potty. Yes!! So we rush to the potty and when we come back in a little girl was put in "time out" by her mom and was crying. Haley was trying to figure out what was going on and told her, "Shut it!". Whew, good thing the little girl or her mom didn't hear. Hmmm, wonder where she got that from, daddy?? Oops.

Episode 2

We had gone to the store to get Haley's big girl mattress and Jackson a high chair. When we pulled into the driveway Matt said to me, "We forgot to get garage door opener". Haley replied back, "Oh damn it!" I asked her what she said and she repeated it. We quickly changed the subject. I guess the positive is she used it in the proper context?!?

Episode 3

Jackson was playing on the floor minding his own business and Haley comes over after her bath. She gives him a little kick and I told her that isn't nice and don't do it again. Well she did so I told her to tell him "I'm sorry." She refused and instead asked, "Can I just go to bed". The answer was no and after standing in the corner she finally told her brother "I'm sorry". It was pretty funny. She's learned how to beat the system already, oh boy!

Episode 4

We have fun names for both kids. I usually call Haley, Haley Bailey and Jackson either Buddy or Jacky Wacky. Everytime I tell Jackson, "Hey buddy," Haley always says, "His name's not Buddy, It's Jackson." Makes us laugh.

And finally...

Today I was changing her diaper and she kept saying, "Matt." I asked her, "who is Matt?" She responded, Daddy. I then asked, "what's my name?" Her answer, "Rose". I LOVE HER!! She thinks I'm Sleeping Beauty and I'm a princess:)

While our days are very long and sometimes hectic, we are having a blast. We're so blessed to have these two awesome kids!
