Two little piggies!!

I know this is such a Mom, girl thing...I was so excited today to FINALLY be able to do something with Paisleys tiny bit of hair! Two teeny little pigtails. Maybe she won't be bald her whole life after all! Now if we could just get the little bit of hair right in the front to grow...

I have to admit, I am a little sad at how this makes her look so much older. Since she's not walking she still seems about 10 months old to me.

Curls! we have curls! This is what her hair looks like after the tub. YAY!! (we wouldn't want her to feel left out)

Happy Monday!!

I was so excited today I could hardly stand it! Paisley got her cast off. She was pretty dramatic about the whole deal. She was in a super good mood this morning, I think she could tell something wonderful was going to happen. She didn't exactly love the saw they cut the cast with, or the last set of x-rays, but it was totally worth the end result!! A really dry leg and really long toe nails! Just kidding, NO CAST!! Yippee!

A happy baby = a happy mama :)

I bet it felt awesome to have pink sawdust in her diaper! ewww!

She screamed the whole time and kept trying to push the casting tech away, so I had to hold her down

I figured the best way to celebrate was with a bubble bath!! Hooray for clean babies!

It was harder than you would think to get her to stop splashing for two seconds and look at the camera! She had the time of her life in the tub! Stinkin' cute!

Christmas Fun!

Wow, I can't believe the holidays have come and gone so soon. It really flew by this year. Darren is already hard at work during his busy tax season, so we especially cherish the relaxed work load of December. Grandma and Grandpa Hill were able to come up for a few days over Christmas. We always love having them stay, the kids were sad that they left so soon! We haven't had any major events since Paisley's broken leg(thank goodness!), so I'll just put some random pics on here for sake of time.

So many presents! This is Krew waiting his turn patiently

Pretty in pink

We got Paisley's new fashion accessory today, it's really pink! The Orthopedic Doc will x-ray it again in two weeks to make sure it's doing ok. If everything looks good she will only have to have it on for 4 weeks. It's sad, but she still looks really cute to us! She is handling it pretty good for now, other than she's totally bored not being mobile at all. It might be a long 4 weeks!

She loves having her picture taken, she was all smiles for these!

When it rains, it pours...

So, if being too sick to celebrate her b-day wasn't enough, Paisley got really sick on Monday, had a temp of 103 for two days, had an ear infection, and was throwing up, couldn't keep anything down. She started an antibiotic on Wednesday and was finally feeling somewhat normal for the first time today. Well, it was just too good to be true. We had a small accident at our house today, Jackson was trying to be helpful and was carrying Paisley when he tripped on a toy and fell, bonking Paisley's head on a wooden rocking chair and landing on top of her. She cried like I've never heard her cry before, and after about 2 hours we realized it wasn't just the goose egg on her head that was hurting her. We went to the instacare and learned that she has a broken femur. Wow! what next! I feel almost just as bad for Jackson who is feeling very terrible about this whole thing.

This is her temporary splint, we go to an ortho on Monday to get a cast. All I can say is, they'd better have pink or purple for my little princess!

Paisley is one year old!!!

I can't believe my baby is already one year old! This last year has gone by way too fast. She has always been such a good baby and we have loved every second we've had her. She is absolutely adored by her older brothers and sister. She's definitely the princess at our house. Paisley was really sick on her actual birthday which was the 11th, so we celebrated on the 12th (so sad!).

This is Paisley on her actual birthday, not much for a party! Poor baby : (

She LOVES this rocking horse from Grandma, she can totally do it herself!

We forgot to have her open the present from us, so here she is on Sunday morning opening it. (I know, we're totally retarded!)

She had more fun with the paper than the toy!

Enjoying her teddy bear cake (really she mostly played in it and didn't eat much since she was still not feeling great)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEET PAISLEY! WE LOVE YOU!

Happy Birthday Krew!

I can't believe it, where has the last year gone? Krew turned 3 on Saturday, and it feels like yesterday that he turned 2. The only thing he wanted for his birthday was a blue 4 wheeler, and a blue 4 wheeler cake. Well, a red 4 wheeler is what he got and I attempted a blue 4 wheeler cake, and thank goodness he loved it. Krew is such a funny kid and keeps us on our toes with his mischief, but we sure do love him, and can't believe he's already 3.

For some reason, Krew is always taking off his clothes. We were lucky he had pants on for this picture.

As you can see, he loved his new 4 wheeler so much that he thought he was going to sleep on it that night. Sure, why not? he sat on it and watched TV earlier. Looks comfy doesn't it?
