....it obviously followed the path of my other resolutions and didn't make it past January. I'm updating today because I'm tired of seeing my post promising to take more pictures and do more blog posts staring at me every time I sign on to check my friends blogs who actually update!! I'm also tired of Meredith asking me when I'm going to update again (note: Meredith doesn't even have a blog, so who is she to call me out?). The truth: this is the longest I have ever gone between posts, and I have not taken one single picture on my actual camera since Christmas. I also have worked out a total of 10 times since my New Year's resolution to work out at least 3 times a week. Glad I got that all off my chest.
So...we've been up to a lot in the past several months. Hallie is getting more and more fun by the day...but with that comes a need for more and more energy from her mom and dad! Blake said the other day, "she is actually acting like a human now." I kind of get what he is talking about. I think. Seeing the world through her eyes and watching her learn new things is definitely at the top of my most favorite things of being a parent. I've also become acutely aware of what I say. Apparently I say "Hush Mia" and "Come on Hallie" way too much because I hear it multiple times a day (and maybe my parrot said "damn" the other day, maybe). Hallie adores all her "friends" and lists them one by one at least 3 times a day. Right now the names include: Mia (of course), Ty, Nana (Hanna), Deacon, Brooks, Ellis, Cindy (Sydney), Parkah (Parker), Grady (Gremy), Caleb (Cabe), Cam, Aubrey, Addy, Marcy, and Pushes (Ava...but apparently she is the bully at school so that is what Hallie refers to her as).
Here are a few pictures over the past four months (of course only from my I-phone):
The nose in the corner timeout was Blake's doing not mine. But I will say, it did impact her more than just sitting!
Her hair gets more curly every day
Finally able to wear big girl pig tails
First of many dates with Ty (if crushes are possible at 1 1/2, I'm pretty sure Hallie has one)
At her boyfriend's birthday
Oh just eating ribs out of the trashcan...what can I say, she belongs to Blake
Gardening...hope she is better than her mom
School Easter egg hunt
Country club Easter egg hunt
Hanging out with Grammy and the Tech cheerleaders at the Spring practice
DanDan and Hallie
We went to Grapevine for Brooks's 3rd birthday to see Thomas the Train. Brooks, Hallie, and Sydney had so much fun!
Hallie and Parker. Hallie is obsessed with Parker and asks to see her picture every day.
Hopefully I will get better about updating!!!
