Playing!

Add ImageHallie has been sitting up quite well for awhile! She did topple over twice after I took this picture, but she seems to catch herself well! She still doesn't really like to be on her stomach and won't get into the crawl position. But yesterday when we went into her room in the morning, she had flipped herself on her belly and wasn't crying! We were suprised!



This week, the weather was rainy and cold, so daycare went to the mall playground. They are nice enough to send me pictures sometimes from their phones! Here's her and Jada!



They went to Chuck-e-Cheese the next day. The last night, she cried the whole time, but she did much better that day! This expression definitely is a "Starnes" look. Mom says Chris and I both crinkled our nose when we were little and Isaiah has done it too!




Apparently, Chuck-e-Cheese got a bit boring, so she took a nap! LOL! She still puts one or both arms on her head when she sleeps!






She's not so afraid of the camera anymore!

Mother's Day!





I decided to wear a shirt Hallie loves! It has a design on it that she likes to grab! She really likes my necklaces too!


She's been saying lots of "la -as" and "ba" and said "Ma!" the other night. Jason says he think he's heard "Da Da." She just jibber jabbers a lot so it will be interesting to find out what the words will be!

First Road Trip!

We went to Atlanta last week, Thursday to Sunday to meet with Chris, Lesley and Isaiah. Hallie was very good on the car rides, mainly sleeping and playing with toys!

We stayed in a house together, which was fun! It also was helpful since Hallie did not sleep through the night and woke up crying a few times! I am sure if we had been in a hotel, we would have gotten some complaints!

We had a great time just being together! Isaiah is talking and loves to tell us what a duck says!

Thursday night, we headed to the famous Varsity restaurant for hot dogs and hamburgers!







On Saturday, we were a few blocks away from a ice cream shop, so we got chocolate with oreos and chocolate chips! Hallie loved it too!





Friday afternoon, we went to the Aquarium! Hallie was good there and we enjoyed strolling her around! I think she noticed the fish....




She only really screamed once and thankfully, I had a bottle, so we took a break!




Mom and Isaiah!




This time, Isaiah just patted her head instead of popping it like he did at Christmas!








He loved playing with the donuts!
