To the Libaby we go!

Hailey's new thing is to go to the Libaby (library)! She loves getting books and checking them out and getting movies to watch.

Mostly I just like to hear her say ....libaby! :o)

PJ Day Today at Daycare

Today is PJ and bring your teddy bear day at school.

This morning Hailey was very confused as to why she was wearing her PJs to school. She was confused even more when I took her out of her footie jammies and put on a 2 peice set...she kept asking "Mom where's my clothes??...I wear clothes today"

It took a lot of convincing and reminding her that her teacher told her last night to wear her jammies to school and that all ofher friends at school would be wearing them too!!

Valentine's Day

This past Saturday was Valentine's Day and Hailey and I didn't really do anything special, just enjoyed the weekend to ourselves with really nothing going on.

I gave her a goodie bag filled with little books/activity books/movie/whatever else I found at the Target Dollar Bin.

But my favorite memory from this day was I decided to take Hailey out to eat for lunch, we hadn't been out to eat in a long time and so I thought it would be fun for us to do.

So we went to Bob Evans and Hailey sat acrossed the table from me. She amazed me how well she did. I had to distract her at times but otherwise she was just amazed at what everyone else was doing. She asked lots of questions of where people were going and I had to come up with some answer to fit her liking. She saw little girls walking up with their parents to the restuaurant and she insisted they were her friends!

We even enjoyed chocolate sundaes to which she insisted that she finish mine because I was full!! :o) When we left the restuaurant and walking back to the car and were holding hands, Hailey looking at the ground says "I love you Mommy" out of no where and then looks up at me. Of course my eyes quickly filled up with tears (yes i am that mom that cries) and gave her the biggest hug ever.

I love my little girl so much!!

Bedtime Excuses - they are going to make me turn grey waaaaay before they are supposed to!

So this is partly my fault...well...probably ALL of my fault, but Hailey has every excuse in the book at bedtime.

- we go potty before bed or at least try
- brush teeth
- get into bed
- then she has to get out of bed because I can't pick out the book we are going to read even though it is the sameone every night.
- Back into bed and covered up
- read the book (as fast as I can get her through it)
- needs more water in her cup even though it is filled up but she wants NEW water
- say our prayers
- hugs and kisses
- potty again sometimes if I haven't lost my patience yet..
- hugs and kisses again
- I love yous and good night
-FINALLY the door is shut and she is off to dream land

other excuses she comes up with when she is REALLY desperate:
- she suddenly finds and owie and needs a band aid
- she wants the night light off and then after the door closes and quickly realizes she wants that back on
- She'll try for a 2nd book....she can always ask
- when we are in big trouble and when she asks to sleep in mommy's bed...then I know I'm in for a rough night.

Why oh WHY did I give into her requests when she started doing this?!?! *sigh*

New Daycare

Well I moved Hailey to the new daycare in Troy end of January and it is working out so well!!! I am so happy and Hailey is doing so good there!! I thought the first time that when she was in daycare that what I was feeling was normal but it was so not!!! I am so comfortable with this place and love that she goes there!

It is so nice to see her thriving and enjoying all of the fun things they do at school (daycare). This week they made their valentine boxes and every night when I pick her up she has brought me over to where it is and has to show me it!! She is so proud!

Her teachers are very impressed with how well she has done even and says that she is very smart!!! :o)

This week we even had progress and she will take her coat off in the morning and will walk over to where they eat breakfast and I don't have to peal her off of me and hand her over to one of the teachers!!!!
