GET ME OUTTA HERE

So, yesterday me and Hailey had had just about enough of one another. We didn't leave the house all day Tuesday or Wednesday, so by Wednesday evening we were a little tired of each others company . . . I was offering a 3 for one special, one free baby comes with two free dogs -- luckily daddy came home before anyone took me up on my offer! We decided to get out for a little while and shop for flat screen TV's (Karl & I's birthday / christmas presents for ourselves). Hailey was happy to hang out with her daddy and get a break from me and I must say vis versa! But once in the mall we were both all smiles again and Hailey LOVED all the christmas decor! She also loved having her daddy to give her a birds eye view of it all --
After checking out TV's at Sears and Best Buy we made our way over the Ryan's for some dinner (that won't happen again, we were both unimpressed with the buffet there) But Miss Hailey had a ball playing with the silverware and eating cottage cheese, pudding and ice cream, she was in a bit of a sugar coma on the way home . . .










After our fun evening out it was time to come home for bif baff time (that's what we call bath time here!) Now that Hailey has graduated to the big bath in the guest bathroom (actually it's now Hailey's bathroom) she gets to have naked time in her own room, which she loves beacause there's way more stuff to check out than there was on mom and dad's bed! She even gets check out by Molly, who might I mention loves the baby!! And I love her again too . . . =) Mama just need a little break from time to time! Good thing Boompa and Nana are on their way for Thanksgiving, they can get their fill of Hailey Bug and I can get some me time!


*Funny story -- right after (or actually while) I was taking the last picture here, Hailey peed the carpet ... hahahaha, her daddy had a duck & I couldn't stop laughing**

Who Knew?!

First ... I had to share Hailey's awesome new outfit -- well, new shoes -- that we wore on our shopping trip today -- She is my little fashionista in the making!! Gotta love the baby Converse
Second, I am proud to say I have broken into the world of lightly used baby goods and saved my budget some in the process. I have tried local thrift shops and even the Good Will to find some lightly used items but always left feeling a little disappointed (and dirty ... yes I'll admit it, I'm a bit of a snob). But a friend from playgroup told me about the Lambs and Ivy consignment sale being held in a local warehouse from Wednesday-Saturday. So I thought what the heck ... we ended up getting toys, a lovely winter coat, a spring coat and some little outfits and only spent $30. Here are a few of our finds ...




I will admit the furry coat is a little over the top -- but it was brand new, from Old Navy and should fit her when we go up to the mountains at Christmas!
