Well nothing really is going on. We're just enjoying summer as much as we can before School starts! only 5 more weeks. We haven't really done anything much, we just try to go swimming as much as we can. We've gone to the treehouse, the bird refuge, ATK, promontory point, and do you think i took pics of any of these? nope, I suck. It's hard remembering to use my brain when I have 3 kids! Oh well. Hailey is eating baby food now, and she loves fresh fruit in her mesh feeder thing. She also loves to drink out of a sippy cup, but hasn't quite got the hang of it yet. I'm slowly losing my milk supply, and am not able to keep up with her by pumping while i am at work anymore, so I am sure we will wean soon. I've been trying to increase my milk supply but it doesn't seem to be working. I am not giving up yet though. She rolls around, and is this close to crawling. I'm trying to upload a video but for some reason blogger wont let me. She loves to get into things, and crawl around and put flip flops in her mouth. She's the cutest little thing and I just adore her. Even her had pretty much adores her. She's very fun, and so worth the previous 6 months of hell. She will be 7 months next week! I can't believe it. Nathan and I are heading to Hawaii on Aug 13th, for Jared and Melissa's wedding. We are so excited, but I am very VERY nervous to be leaving my kids, especially my baby. I know my older kids will do fine, they can ask for what they want/need, but Hailey's so small and helpless, I worry that no one will take as good care of her as I do. Dumb thing to worry about though, my amazing sister has had 4 babies of her own and definitely knows how to do it, but I still worry. I guess I wouldn't be a mom if I didn't! Here's some pics of Hailey. The older girls run away or ruin pictures I take of them, so no pic of them this time.

Previous 6 months of hell?? What's that all about? Guess I need to keep up on blogs better...

Wow, Hawaii??? I am very jealous. Someday I'll make it there. For now, we're just doing Powell next month. We're leaving Evan for the first time--for 5 days! I feel your pain. I'm so sad/freaked out to leave him. But, I can't stand the thought of taking him and worrying about him drowning 24/7.

LOl Karin, she was a very hard baby. Colicky, crying, sad all the time. Now she's happy as can be!

I realize it was my birth control that dried me up.
Anyway, LOVE Hailey's red hair! So cute. Glad she's getting happier. Kimball was the same way, except he wasn't happier until he could walk and eat solid food by himself.
That will be way fun to get away to Hawaii w/out the kids! So jealous
