Look out World, Haley's Mobile!

Well, Miss Haley started crawling last Friday. She had been teasing us for several weeks, so we were pretty excited. This was taken just after she had crawled halfway across the living room. Of course I didn't get that on video though!


So I've been trying to get a better video since Friday and finally got this last night. She seems to have a rather modified method, but manages to get around quite well. She's quite attracted to anything with lights and cords, so our electronics are now in grave danger!

New Cousin!

Another cousin has arrived! Amber and Brian are thrilled with their expanded family. Mom and baby were both looking perfectly radiant just hours after the birth.

The whole crew.


We even got a cousin picture so that none of the little ones got left out. :)

Big sister Carissa is pretty smitten with her little sister already.

But Haley and Nathan preferred to play with Nathan's new dinosaurs.

Playing in the Park

We all had a great time playing in the park last Sunday. Haley thought that the grass was pretty cool stuff. Maybe someday we'll have a lawn again. . .

Jill & Luke blowing bubbles for the little quadruped.

I couldn't resist posting this picture Gena, Jacob looks so cute. Haley hasn't learned to ham for the camera yet but I didn't expect the glare.

Stuck!

Hello all! This video was taken a few days ago when Haley backed herself underneath the coffee table. She's better at going forward now, but still not doing a real crawl.



(Honestly I just wanted to try this other video hosting service and this is my most recent decent video. Enjoy anyway!)

Still not Crawling!

Well, the little goon is still not really crawling, but she's got the army crawl down. She looks like she'll take off any time, but has for a couple of weeks now.

"This crawling business is over-rated."

I'm not sure if the pigtails help or not, but they're fun. :)

Camping again

Another quick camping trip. This time just the three of us.

This is Miss Haley helping us set up camp.

Inspecting the tent.

This was one of those sticks that light up when you snap them....she was completely mesmerized.

Visit from Uncle Harold

Just a couple of weeks ago, Harold came to visit us for a few days. We had a great time and Haley really took to Harold.

He tried and tried to get her to crawl....we really thought that she would while he was here. But no such luck.

But she did try very hard and had to take a long nap after he left.

I'll be crawling next time you visit, Uncle Harold. Promise! :)
