For The Love of Hailey

Hailey reminded me that while Matthew has been getting a lot of play on the blog recently (thanks a lot sushi finger), I haven't been blogging about her as much. I have to admit that he does the more outrageous things in our house and Hailey just makes me laugh...all.the.time!

She is hysterical and the video is just a small collection of snippets of her adorable and entertaining behavior.

Hailey is my rock. When Matthew is doing something completely off the wall, I can usually count on her to be doing exactly what she's supposed to be doing (unless she's mimicking him in which case I just walk away shaking my head).

  • She loves to read (if your definition of reading is taking every single book off the shelf, looking at one page, and then going back for the rest).
  • She is a great dancer...I haven't gotten any of it on film yet, but I intend to. She's awesome...she gets low, shakes her booty, puts her hands up in the air, shakes her little hips, and enjoys every minute of it.
  • I sing to her...You Are my Hailey (instead of Sunshine) and she loves it.
  • When she looks at you, she looks right into your eyes.
  • When Matt gets sent to time-out, nine times out of ten, she sits down right next to him.
  • When I ask if she's in time-out, she shakes her head no, but stays anyway.
  • She sings in the car.
  • She loves her boots...more than anything in her entire life. I'm pretty sure she'll be wearing them with her bathing suit this summer.
  • She LOVES Abby Cadabby...calls her cawcaw.
  • She always tries to tickle our feet...laughing the whole time.
  • She closes drawers, doors that are ajar, puts things away, pushes chairs in close to the table, and keeps things in order.
  • She's my little helper.
  • She totally looks like a bobble head when "saying" yes to something...I'm afraid she's going to hurt herself (see video)!
  • She loves her Daddy!
  • She has the longest fingers I have ever seen.
  • She's skinny...really skinny. She makes me jealous!
  • She loves babies.
  • She loves to be held.
  • She's currently being taught how to say, "heeeeyyyy" to her reflection in the mirror...she's a crack-up!
