Getting Bigger

My baby girl is getting so big! I can't believe she is one month shy of 6 months. I swear it was just the other day we were bringing her home from the hospital. She is now 5 months and doing so many fun things! We gave her rice cereal for the first time and she loves it. She eats it like a champ. She is still rolling over, grabbing everything, sucking on everything-I swear she is teething. I love being able to stay home with her! Being a mom is the best thing!

Across the Country

Across the country is where we are going to be living the next four years.

Bethesda, Maryland is where we will call home.

We are so glad to finally know! We have spent along time waiting.

Jared will leave in June for officers training in Alabama. Hallee and I will go straight to Maryland in August.

I'm excited but nervous for this adventure. We will meet lots of new people, Jared and I will become closer, and we will get to see a lot of new places. Jared says it is beautiful out there.

We now have the joys of finding a place to live! It should be interesting.

Feel free to come visit! There will be lots to do out there!

4 months

It has been awhile since the last post. We have been busy. We moved a couple of weeks ago to Farmington to live with my parents until we go to Med. School. We still don't know where. We are still waiting to hear back from the school in Maryland, if not then we will go to Missouri with Tara and Seth! Which would be a lot of FUN!!

Hallee is getting so big! She is rolling around like crazy. She is a very busy baby. I tried giving her a little rice cereal and she kept it all in her mouth. She did very well with it. She likes to stick everything in her mouth. She is so much fun! I can't believe how big my baby girl is getting.

I had a very good Mother's day the men made us breakfast and lunch. I got a pedicure, book, and a cute headband that my sister made. She is so creative. I'm jealous!

Love those cheeks!

Getting ready for a walk. She loves them! I love those sunglasses and she will even keep them on.

here is a picture of the one Tara made me for Mother's Day.

here are some other ones she has made! She selling them if your interested!!

3 month pictures

I got a coupon from JcPenny's for a free sitting free so I decided to try it out. Well lets just say it was a disaster. We got there and had to wait 30 minutes so by that time she was not a happy camper. We got 2 good pictures and the rest she was crying! So my very good friend Kaylee took some pictures for me. Hallee was so happy and was talking like crazy! Kaylee got some great pictures. Here are a few of many that she took! Thank you Kaylee your the best! I love them. I can't believe my baby girl is 3 months. She is talking and smiling like crazy and has rolled over a couple of times. She is always trying to sit up. I think she is going to be a busy baby once she starts moving! Man I love this little girl!

Giggling

Hallee giggling cutest thing ever..sorry my voice is super annoying but it got her to giggle!!

When Hallee won't go to sleep this is what her mother does!

Hallees Special Day

Sunday was Hallees special day. She was blessed by her dad. He did a great job, short but sweet! We had lots of family and friends there to support us. We had a lunch afterward at my parents house. It was such a great day. Hallee was perfect and she looked adorable.
Thanks to my aunt Tracy who bought her the dress. It is beautiful.

She has become so fun! She loves to coo and smile.

Uncle Matthew crocheted Hallee a white afghan that she was blessed in. He did such a good job! It's a very pretty blanket.

Part of the crew that came to support Hallee. My grandparents from California made the long trek to meet this little girl and they adore her. It was so good to see everyone. Thank you to everyone for coming and supporting us. It was so fun to have my sister here. We were crazy busy the whole time she was here but we had a blast! It sucks being so far away from you best friend!
