Meier Christmas

Hailey loves her new Dora tent. She likes to see how many of us can fit in there with her all at the same time
Matthew had fun watching Hailey open up his presents...he such a laid big little man and what a cute hat his Auntie Gaby and Uncle Aaron sent him

Hailey finally knows what to do with presents but she likes to open EVERYONE's gifts, not just her own (o:

Frank dog just taking in the scene...he turned 7 on January 1st!

Disney World Christmas 2009

On our first full day in Disney we went to breakfast with Pooh and his friends...Matthew was wearing a shirt that said "Pooh is my homeboy" compliments of his Auntie Gaby and Auncle Aaron.
Hailey was a little freaked out by the characters but stated warming up as the morning went by. By the last day at Disney she was giving Mickey and Minnie kisses on the nose (o:

Our Holiday Family Picture for 2009

The ears and glasses belong to HG but who can resist a cute picture like this!

We celebrated our friend Taite's birthday with her while we were in Disney World. Hailey loves cake and tried to help Taite blow out her candles

Light Festival at Hollywood Studios. This was awesome! The lights were set to blink with Christmas Songs...

Disney World

Ariel's Grotto

Hailey L-O-V-E-D the carousel and would cry when we had to take her off the horsie

Matt, Dina, Sydney, Kate, Ava and our clan had an awesome time together! Since they only live about 45 minutes away, they came to Disney World with us for 2 days.

It's hard to get a good picture in front of the castle when everyone is walking down Main Street. This was as good as it gets (o:

Enjoying our last few hours in Magic Kingdom...isn't the castle beautiful?

Happy Halloween 2009

Halloween 2009

We went to a church festival on Halloween evening and it was a lot of fun! They had a bouncy castle that Hailey LOVED and lots of games inside. When it was dark we decided to take her trick or treating for a little bit around the neighborhood and she was a natural. Of course people gave her extra candy because she is so stinkin' cute! Scary thing was, as soon as people would open the door she would try to walk right in. Matthew slept through her trick or treating experience but people enjoyed seeing Nemo and Squirt together as duo.

What a ham!

Happy Birthday Jay!

Happy Birthday Love! 34 years old today...wow! The best part about your birthday is that we are actually together as a family! This is the first time in many years that we've actually been together for your special day and I pray you have an awesome day!

In honor of Jay's birthday, Matthew wanted to give daddy an extra special birthday gift by...(drum roll please!)...SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT! That's right folks, it has finally happened...Matthew slept though the night last night! 10 full hours of blissful sleep! I'm just praying that it continues especially when we head to Mom and Dad's next week. We are off to California (well I guess I should say that we means Hailey, Matthew and I) to go visit the fam for 2 weeks. I'm dreading traveling with two kids by myself across country, but seeing my fam is going to be well worth the drama! While we are there I'll be doing the Susan G. Komen 3 Day Breast Cancer walk with my mom and godmother Loni so pray for us! 60 miles seems like an eternity when you have just had a baby and trying to coordinate meet up places to feed the little man!

The kiddos chilling watching Dora
isn't he adorable?!

Ballet in the Zoo

Last week we went to the zoo for Ballet in the park! They did a tribute to Americans who died during the 9/11 terrorist attacks and it was so beautiful. We brought a picnic dinner and Hailey even rode the train with Jay! It was such a fun evening out with the family.

Some cute pics

I love these ones of my little kiddos...

Matthew 5 weeks old

HE TOOK A BOTTLE!!! woo hoo!!! This was the first time that we have tried a bottle with Matthew and he L-O-V-E-D it! Hailey refused to take a bottle, and believe me we tried every one on the market with no luck. I am so excited that I can leave him for a few hours if I need to! It's the small things in life that make you smile when you are sleep deprived (o:
I love this picture of my two men (o:

Life in the stroller as we walk many miles to train for the "Breast Cancer 3 Day" walk that will take place in October.

Isn't he adorable?!!!!
