2011

2011-02-10T12:57:00.000-08:00

So, I haven't really been able to do a little session with both the kids together until now... it turned out pretty good. Hadlee is almost 3 and Cade is almost 8 weeks old.

Hadlee is so proud that her hair is long enough to braid.

Messing around with Daddy

Cade taking his first bottle... Mommy and Daddy can finally have a date night.

Priceless

The best Big sister ever

He is smiling all the time and talking... I think laughs are just around the corner.

My paci kiddos!

Hadlee's First Day of Preschool

2010-09-13T19:45:00.000-07:00

Hadlee meets a friend and starts playing dinosaurs with him.

Here she is doing the splits in the preschool hall... not sure why but it works.

Being a monkey before she goes into her class!

Our big girl ready to go. She had such a grea.t day, and just said bye to Chris and I as we left. Her teachers just adore her. I did go and spy on her a couple of times and it just melted my heart watching her just explore her new surroundings. I went and peeked on her during lunch and she was just sitting there with a bunch of other kids eating her little strawberries that I packed for her in her lunch. When I picked her up at the end of the day, her teacher was reading a book to the Day Care kids and Hadlee was the only kid sitting in a chair next to her teacher as she read. She is just shining... she is doing better than mommy, because out of the three days that she has gone I have cried 2 of them (I'm blaming it on the hormones:)

Mother's Day

Wild Animal Park

2010-02-06T18:19:00.000-08:00

Hadlee trying to copy her big cousin Ella.

Hadlee had so much fun with these deer, she probably hung out with them for over 10 minutes... she also figued out that when she pet their ears , they would wiggle them.

The girls had so much fun together!

Hadlee was trying to get Ella to hold her... little does Hadlee realize that she almost weighs as much as Ella does.

Little Model!

Becca and her girls.

Ok... so Rebecca and I took the girls into the Lorakeet Feeding Area, and I thought I was going to pee my pants laughing. Rebecca and I were screaming the whole time, which was proabably freaking out our children who we were trying to get to feed the birds. The second we walked into this place the birds were all over us. We created quiet the scene there!

Getting So BIG!!!

2010-01-24T15:59:00.000-08:00

So, we were eating breakfast today and I look over and Hadlee was creating this bagel bacon art piece. It was so funny, and she was so proud of her creation.

Cruising around the house in her big girl backpack.

Daddy let her go crazy with a big glass of milk and her water.

The Teddy Bear Dance Move

2009-12-11T09:02:00.000-08:00

Okay, so Hadlee does this little dance move where she grabs her side and bends down and moves her hips in a circle and says, "Teddddyyyy Beeear", in a low deep voice. It is my favorite thing in the world. Where she got this from I have no clue but she has been doing it for a couple months. I thought this sequence of pictures may be able to show you what I'm talking about.

Photo Session

2009-12-09T15:07:00.000-08:00

No, I am not pregnant it is just the way that the sweater hung.

When my sister was in town we had her do some family pictures for us, which was a little tricky. Hadlee is one of the funniest girls I know but she never wants to smile when you ask her to. We did get a few great pictures. Thanks Kris!

Hanging Out at The New House

2009-08-28T16:57:00.000-07:00

Hadlee, who never wants anything in her hair decided that she was not just going to have 1 bow in her hair but as many as money could fit. I think that it is a great look for her!

Meet the newest addition to the Heiner family... Booters. Hadlee named him herself. We were trying to come up with a name and Hadlee walked over with her boots and said Booter, so there you have it folks. Auntie Lauren gave us the best pet that mommy could have ever asked for. lauren said that she got it for Chris's B-day but I think she just likes hearing Hadlee say, "ishie".

Mommy and Hadlee are just hanging out on the grass in our new BACKYARD!!!!...that's right we finally have the space we've been dying for.

She absolutely loves her Daddy!!!

We have this great climbing tree in our backyard and Had loves to sit in there. She thinks that she is such BIG stuff.

Smelling the flowers!

The day that we came to sign the lease there was a garage sale a few houses down the street, (by the way we livein garage sale capital... love it!) we got this house and 3 other huge play pieces for $20. Got love other people's junk!

Just being silly!

Playing in the Garage

2009-08-25T09:44:00.000-07:00

Hadlee is just getting so BIG! Everyday she says a new word... right now she is very in to the word coooool. She is constantly saying her cousins names all the time!!!! She runs through the list first the girls then the boys. It is amazing how fast the adventure of raising her is going... 6 more months and she is going to be 2... crazy!

Getting so Big 17 months old!!

2009-08-25T08:03:00.000-07:00

So this is Hadlee's new thing... when we want her to smile we say "teeth" and she shows us teeth!

So these pictures are from just hanging around the house... but I realized that it has been along time since I've taken pictures of Hadlee and an even longer time since I've posted pics. I promise I'm going to get better about it.

Cousins

2008-11-14T18:35:00.000-08:00

Ella (3), Jax (6 weeks), Braylon (18 mon), Hadlee (8 mon), and Molly (17 mon)
They actualy all play really well together, they're really fun to watch.

Hadlee 7 Months

2008-11-06T20:52:00.000-08:00

Hadlee loves her paci!

So I found the greatest teething tablets called Highland, my cousin refered them to me and they work, Hadlee got 2 teeth at 5 months and in the last 2 weeks has gotten 4 on the top... you can only imagine how fun that has been... she's actually been really good. Here's Hadlee playing with the bottle she loved to shake it.

So my sister Kristy and I attempted to grab a bite to eat with Hadlee and her little boy Braylon and the newest addition to her family Jax, who I believe at the time was like 3 weeks old. It was not as crazy as you would have thought. But Bray and Hadlee were so cute just sitting there together. When ever they are together they are like a little old married couple they just give kisses and yell back and forth and now Bray is into putting his arm around her when they are sitting on the floor. It is the cutest thing ever.

They were giving us looks like they thought we were crazy!

Hadlee and the mommy just getting ready for bed.

So when I was prego with Hadlee Chris and I took this great birthing class with 3 other couples. We were all due in March...5th, 17th, and two 22nd. And we were all having girls. I had Hadlee on the 13th, Sara had Baily on the 15th and Natlaie had Emily on the 18th. So the girls are all less than a week apart. A couple of weeks ago I met up with Sara and Natalie and their girls. We went to Irvine Park and had so much fun. We tried to get the girls to take a picture but they were way more into one another than the camera. But aren't they all sooo cute, they look like they are having a blast.

Chris and I bought this Penguin that when you knock it over it plays music and makes noise, it kind've freaks Hadlee out... I think because the thing is bigger than she is.

Just Playing with Daddy having so much fun!

We went on a really long walk on the lake.

These were the biggest black bears that we've ever seen!

I think that this picture is so funny... it's like the goat knew I was taking a picture

We fed the ducks and Hadlee loved all the Duckies coming over to us.

Do they not look like twins or what!

We had a little picnic at the lake... it was great!

That look can only be trouble!

She is such a silly girl already!

We ate breakfast outside this morning.

Hadlee and her cousins Molly and Ella.

This our family picture from the day at the park. What a cheap way to have fun.

You have to hike down into the falls on a very steep set of stairs... it's even scarier with a baby.

Here we are at the top of the Rainbow Falls.

This was the start of our hike down to Rainbow Falls, we left at 6:30 in the morning. All the kids did great on the hike.

This series of pictures are my favorite, Hadlee was so happy this night and she just had the greatest look on her face.

Me with Poppy

I know this is a little late but here she is. Our little angel Hadlee. She weighed 8 pounds 6 ounces and 20.5 inches long. The birth was intense but with the help of my sister Becca and Chris I was able to get through it and let me tell you,she was worth every minute of labor as challenging as it was. She's just a blessing and miracle and we are loving every minute with her.

My sister Kristy and my adorable nephew, Braylon, just left to go to Iceland. That is where JJ, Kristy's husband, is playing basketball this winter-spring. Hopefully she'll be back in time to see Hadlee be born but there is a good chance that they won't make it back until April. I will miss them all so much! These pictures were taken the night before they left.
