What a week!

We had a crazy time with Mother Nature this past week! First we've been dealing with these forest fires, then we have an earthquake on Tuesday (the first I have ever experienced in my life!), then a hurricane on Saturday, which also brought a tornado not too far from my sisters house! As my mom said, good thing we don't have volcano's here or we'd be in real trouble!! This all also occurred during my final week of my Pediatric Nursing class, which involved a quiz on Monday, a test on Tuesday, TWO tests on Wednesday, a Final test over the entire class on Thursday, and then an additional clinical on Friday. So let me tell you, my week was stressful and I am happy it's over!

Thank God my family hasn't suffered any major damage to our homes or anything throughout this week. God is good! 

During the hurricane Dave ended up being able to stay home with us. We thought he was going to be called into work on Saturday but he didn't so that was nice Haylee and I weren't alone. We had a good time together and I think Haylee really loved having us both home together with her all day long.

fort time! 
Haylee insisted on swimming in her pool as it filled up, she said
"I need to go swimming, I need to hurry up right now!"

silly kids 

This is the most damage we had at our house (Haylee's window is on the left). There were a lot of trees/branches down in our neighborhood  but nothing looked too major. The good thing about owning a condo is we won't have to pay to fix it!

this kid cracks me up!

Bookbag

It is so hard to believe that Haylee is going to be starting school in just 16 days! I am excited for her but I just know I'm going to cry! We got her bookbag yesterday in the mail and we surprised her with it.

We had her close her eyes until we told her to open them. She was SO excited and I started to get teary eyed! Which is why I know the first day of school is going to involve tears, happy ones of course!

I think it's VERY safe to say she was happy about her bookbag...



it's just a tad too big for her... 

Singer

Haylee not only loves to dance but she also loves to sing! She's a true entertainer.





Phone pictures

I was going through my phone to find a video (will post next) and saw a bunch of cute pictures I thought I'd post here. Some you may have seen on Facebook already but they are my favorites =)

This one has a short story... I decided to take Haylee to get her first Twisted Sisters
cupcake because they were near our house. I kept telling her it was a surprise and
when we got there they only had one flavor left that I didn't think she'd like so we left.
Well of course that upset her and she cried so I took her to 7-11 to get a "slurpidee"
and she said "Mommy, I'm so happy now!"

Sleeping

Of course we had to check on Haylee and see how she was sleeping in her new bed. Looks like we might have a problem...

She is really close to that opening!
Dave wants to get something to go along the entire side, such a protective daddy LOL

Our BIG girl =(

We have finally accepted that Haylee is a big girl and was ready to move from her crib to her bed. She really was very content in her crib but I knew she would be so happy in a "big girl bed" just like her big cousin Kylie has. So we switched it over today and let me tell you, that was one HAPPY little big girl! She loves it and even wanted to stay in it and play after we did it. She also went straight to bed with no problems! We are so proud of her =)

Yes, there are a lot of pictures =)

Playing in it during the transformation



that is one excited big girl!! 
oh my, she looks so grown up 


checking out what it will feel like when she goes to bed LOL 
time for bed!! SO excited!
