I Heart Faces Week 12-Child Entry



This is my entry for Week 12: Pouty Faces. This is my Hailey, just a month ago. I was trying to blog her haircut, she was pouting because I wouldn't quit taking her picture.

(No, this isn't the sooc shot. I edited with Picnik.)

Riverfront Park on Saturday

Yesterday, we took the kids to Riverfront park.

It has a really cool slide there that is a giant Radio Flyer wagon.

Jacob LOVES the monkey bars and spent most of his time doing those. He's our only one that's light enough and strong enough to make it to the end. And he's proud of that!

Hannah took Hailey down the slide quite a few times. What a sweet sister.

I took Hailey off to watch the ducks in the river while everyone else headed off to play some football.


She enjoyed watching them. We left when a goose came along making lots of racket trying to scare all the other birds away. Bread hog.....

My handsome guy.....

Playing football with the boys.

Really, it's more of a game of "Daddy throws it, they all run for it, wrestle each other for it, and run back without getting tackled. Repeat." But they all have fun.


Laughing at Daddy and the silly boys from the sidelines.

Then, Hailey wanted to join in. Brothers were gentle with her.


Fumble!

Going for the touchdown. Slowly.

We broke from the football game to hunt down some facilities.

We headed to the carousel building.

Inside, we found an antique carousel from 1906.

And a Zoltar! Remember that movie Big in the 80's? I should've unplugged it and popped a quarter in and made wish to be "skinny". I might've woke up a really happy woman this morning! (maybe next time...)

After we left the carousel building, we headed down the street to the Olive Garden.

It's the only Olive Garden in town and we decided to use a giftcard that we were given to get some dessert to take home.

While Daddy was getting the dessert we took some photos across the street.

(basically, mom was practicing with her new camera....)

I think I got some decent shots.

(Thank you Hannah for modeling for me. Oh, and being my daughter.....I love you.)

I Heart Faces Week 10-Child Entry

This is my entry for Week 10-"Green" on the I Heart Faces photo blog.

This is one of my all-time favorite pics of Hailey. The wind was blowing her hair and she thought it was funny. She had such a good time playing in the grass and taste-testing the twigs around her. (Notice the crumbs on her lips.) She was about 11 months old I think.

Fun Saturday

Today we set out to do some geocaches. We haven't been geocaching since I was 5 months pregnant with Hailey, so about 2 years.

The first one was a quick snag at a bowling alley near our house. It was in a magnetic key holder on a lightpole in the parking lot.

Our second one was at a residence. It was hidden in one of their bushes near the sidewalk. We snagged a travel bug there as well. We intend on moving him a little West in a couple of weeks.

Third cache was at an old cemetary. We had to jump the fence because there was too much snow to go through the gate. We couldn't find it. Too much snow. ::snort::

Fourth cache was on a hiking trail. We pulled up to the trailhead and decided that there was too much snow to hike the 1/2 mile. But, Hannah spotted a moose! I stalked him for about 20 mins or so. He was up on a ridge so I wasn't too close. I did have a funny moment though where he started kindof running and so I started running back to the car. Turns out he was running with, not towards me. I was having images of being slapped around and knocked over by a moose though as I was running. (g) I'm sure I provided some entertainment for Michael and the kids:)

After we quit harassing the moose we were headed home and spotted some deer going down into a valley. We pulled over and I was able to get a couple of pictures. We could see where they were going into a residential area on the other side of the valley so we drove over there and stalked them some more....

Some of the people lay out corn for the deer. We got to see about 10 of them just strolling through the neighborhood eating dinner.

It was a fun day.

Some pics of Hailey in the tub!








Hailey got a haircut.

I finally got tired of Hailey's hair being in her face. I'd put it up in hairbands but she was constantly pulling them out so I decided to finally cut it today.

What do you think?

P.S. She's not unhappy about her hair. She was tired of me taking her picture.
