Haddie was tagged by her friend Sabrina Collins. So here are:
8 Things about Hadley

1) Hadley is the easiest baby to take care of. She hardly ever cries, she slept through the night at 3 wks. She seems to know when I need her to wake up and when I need her to go to sleep.

2) Hadley LOVES her big brother Ryan. He can make her laugh faster than anyone.

3) Hadley has a new favorite hide-out, she loves to roll under the couches in the music room and play with the straps on the under side.

4) Hadley has her daddy wrapped around her little finger. He is enamored with her. Every time he comes home from work he's so excited to see her.

5) Hadley, although she loves solid food, is the hardest baby to feed. She thinks she can feed herself. Her favorite thing to do is slap the spoon (fully loaded with food of course) on to her high chair tray so food goes flying everywhere.

6) Hadley most often has a very serious look on her face. I can already tell that she is going to have a very dry sense of humor. Can you imagine her cracking a joke with her deadly serious face on? Hilarious!

7) Hadley has already, in her short life, had two spinal taps, and three trips to the Emergency Room. She has also already had four ear infections. What are we going to do with her? She's not necessarily sickly, but it doesn't take much to unbalance her system and it usually results in an infection of some kind.

8) Hadley loves kisses! She loves to give the full on, mouth open, try and eat your face off kisses. She loves kisses and hugs. She by far has been my most affectionate baby.

Thinking back to when she was born and my doctor showed me her umbilical cord and showed us several spots where the cord had started to thin dangerously, the kind of thing that leads to a 38 wk. gestation baby dying in-utero, we are just extremely grateful that she is a part of our family and that she decided to come when she did!

Wow, I am so glad that Haddie came when she did, too! What a blessing. Motherhood is just so awesome. And Mama has to be the best word ever invented!
