A Visit with Grandma & Grandpa

To celebrate Haley's 1/2 year birthday her grandparents from Nebraska came down for a visit. They hadn't seen Haley since she was just 3 weeks old so it was a real treat for her to have them around. We spent most of the visit just sitting around the house playing with Haley and visiting. We did take a a few short jaunts around the area...to the beach one day and then Justin's softball games on Sunday (surprisingly they won them both-we must be lucky charms!!) Thanks Sonya and Dean for making the trip! We always love having ya'll!

Upgrades

Haley can now mark sitting off her to-do list. Way to go stinkerrella!

With the beginning of this new chapter in her life we decided it was time to pack up the bouncer and swing and upgraded her to a jumperoo (watch for videos to come)! She loves it. There are all sorts of fun activities for her to play with up top and then she gets to kick and jump with her legs. She is still a little timid with the jumping but I am sure she will have that contraption soaring in no time! Also with the sitting status comes an upgrade to her food selections. In addition to her standards like peas and squash she can now have delicious things such as peach cobbler and apples-n-cherries! What a happy little girl she will be with all these new choices!

Fishing

Justin went fishing this past weekend with his buddy Matthew. The trip was very successful! They caught a whole mess of keepers and from the way Justin explains it it may have been his best trip yet. They fished till almost 3:30 in the morning with the fish biting almost constantly. I am so glad that he finally got to have his "storybook" fishing trip. Hehe.

As for Haley and I, we stuck around Pearland and did a little fishing of our own! Check out the photos I took of her first catch!! Apparently she was very hungry.
