Hailey's 1st Christmas

Hailey's first Christmas was a success!! She got a lot of loot from the family and she was a very happy girl! Which is not bad considering she only had a morning nap!

Started out the morning seeing what Santa brought her. Then Grannie, Mark, Nana, Papa and Uncle Adam came over for breakfast and presents. Hailey actually went down for her nap right before presents started and slept through the whole thing!

The afternoon was spent at Grandma & Grandpa Wiesman's house. We saw all the Aunts, Uncles & cousins from Randy's side. She slept through present opening again!!

We ate dinner over at Grannie's house where Cousin Emily, Grannie M & Papa were here from out of town. She was awake for that present session but Daddy was feeding her while Mommy opened her presents!! Tried to put her down for a nap but the excitement was too much to miss!

Dessert back at Grandma Wiesman's where we ended the night. She went down at 8:30pm. She had a big day today! Next year will be a new experience for her! Christmas will keep getting better and better!! Can't wait!

And now for some pictures! I have to admit, I am one of those mom's that end up taking pictures of only her own kid. I wish I was better at snapping more pictures! I actually forgot the camera at Grandma Wiesman's so all the pictures from at home and at her house! We did take a picture of the three of us but I look like I have a black eye in them for some reason!! So those are not going to be posted!! So here they are.... starting with, of course, the sign pictures!!

And now for the morning pictures....

Grannie & Hailey Christmas morning

Let's get to those presents!!

Nana, Papa, Hailey

All Those presents for me??

Aren't I pretty in my Christmas dress??

Unwrapping all those presents wore me out

Uncle Ryan is funny....looking!

Yes, I really am that adorable!!

Christmas fun at Grandma Wiesman's!

I like this Santa!
I am too cute!

This Santa is much bigger than me! But my cheeks are certainly bigger!

Hailey Met Santa Today!

So I gave in and took Hailey to see Santa today! Her Nana & Papa came along too. I wasn't quite sure if I wanted to start this tradition with her. I hate seeing crying Santa pictures! A friend of mine, Jennifer, had taken her son to Victoria Gardens in Rancho Cucamonga. This place was really cute and not cheesy like other mall set ups! Hailey did really good! She didn't cry at all (of course next year could be a different story!). She was snoozing in her stroller up until it was her turn so she was in a great mood! The picture they took turned out really cute!

Santa's House!

I'm ready!!

The picture they took! She did so good!

Santa told my dad he hasn't shaved his beard in 40 years!

Deck the Blog with Christmas Deco

I love Christmas so I thought I would make my blog look festive!



Randy put up the lights on the house. Hailey absolutely loves to look at them. She just stares in total aw! We haven't gotten our tree yet but did put up the small fake one we have. I set Hailey in her bouncer and she stared at it for 15 minutes! Guess we have a new way of soothing/distracting her for the next month.

On the down side, 9 days until I go back to work! Anyone have a winning lotto ticket cause mine seems to be broken!! =(

Hailey's Christmas List

I have had quite a few of you ask me what she "wants" for Christmas. I have a few ideas if you need them!!

• BornFree BPA free PLASTIC (they come in glass but I don't like glass) bottles: 9oz
• Clothes (Surprising huh!). 6-9 months especially
• Bibs, some are becoming too small for her neck. We go through these like crazy.
• Baby Einstein DVDs
• 6+ month appropriate toys
• Bumbo

Our registry is still active too if you want more ideas. This is all I can think of right now! Thanks!! =)

Hailey's Christmas Dress

I found Hailey's Christmas Dress! Why I am so excited? Excited enough to write a blog about it? Because I HATE Velvet. ALL Christmas dresses I can find, have velvet on them. I can't stand to touch it or hear it be touched. It's like nails on a chalkboard for me! I was very frustrated to find that all dresses for Christmas have velvet on them! BUT I randomly found this on a website and it is so cute and festive....and TA DA! NO VELVET!!! I ordered it immediately and hopefully when it arrives, it will be as cute as the picture. And at this rate with the weather, the fact that it is sleeveless won't matter! I have a cute white, soft jacket (so cute too!) I got at one of my showers that she can wear if it's cold.

Can't wait for Christmas! Although, by then I will be back at work and that I CAN wait for!
