Two weekends ago we went down to see dustins grandparents in South GA. They hadn't seen HB since she was 2 months old, so they were very surprised at how she had changed and were so happy to see her! She gave them both a big smile soon as she saw them. We had a lot of fun hanging out and getting some time to relax. We rode four wheelers and played with the dogs in the lake (well we didnt get in the lake!) We even got to have a big early Thanksgiving dinner... it was so delicious :)

Once again my Friend at "This Mama Rocks" is doing a give away. This time it is a water resistant blanket. It is very cute and seems to be the perfect thing for an outdoors picnic, esp if the ground is still damp from the morning dew. It is very vibrant with colors and a cute pattern in stripes. You can check it out at her site and enter the contest to win one here "http://thismamablogrocks.blogspot.com/2009/11/vat-19-tuffo-outdoor-waterproof-picnic.html" or you can visit the Vat19 website and purchase one for yourself here "http://www.vat19.com/dvds/tuffo-outdoor-waterproof-blanket.cfm"
Hailey started getting up on her knees for the first time today. She really started trying hard when we put her down for bed. She started pushing up and scooting backwards in the crib. I know it was bedtime, but I couldn't resist putting her on the floor and having some fun and capturing some video!! It is a little long this time, but you can't just tell them "ok do it now" haha. The whole video is her trying to get up, but the very end is when she actually gets on all fours and stays for a bit. She was trying so hard to crawl to daddy!! If you have the time, watch the whole thing, but if you want to see her get all the way up.. just skip to the end ;)
Today we got some Chirstmas flyers in the mail and I was going through them with Hailey. She loves to read books and magazines and hold anything that you put in front of her. I pulled one of the bigger ones that we had and let her "help" me flip through it. It was the funniest thing I have seen in a while. She was going crazy over it and banging all the pages. I sat her by herself and put it in her lap and this is what she did. If this is anything like Christmas is going to be... it is going to be sooo much fun and I cant wait!!!!
Well I am just now getting HB's 5 Month pics up. She turned 5 mo's on Nov 8. As always the time is just flying by. She has been doing a lot lately. She loves to play with her toes and even tries to get them all the way up there to her mouth! She is doing really well with sitting up and we try and practice with her everyday. The only problem is she wants to stand up all the time and never wants to bend. Once she gets her feet going, you won't be able to stop the girl! She still loves Pooh and Tigger. She has been a little fussy at night because I think she has more teeth coming in (crazy!!) so she will be in her jumper and start fussing and soon as I turn them on she just stops and looks at the tv with amazement. She loves to watch it and I can usually count on a babysitter for about 30 extra minutes! If that doesnt work, I just bring the dogs around her. She absolutely loves the dogs! She just watches them and breaks a neck if they walk out of the room. Tues when we got all the bad rain, we found a puppy and had to bring him in. It was so sad and he was terribly skinny. So of course I made Dustin go get him and bring him in the garage. I have been trying to find a good home for him, but no luck yet. I just can't bring him to the pound, won't do it! He is so sweet and dozi AND angel both like him, which is so hard to believe. He has to stay outside but loves it when they come to play. So HB has a lot to look at now a days. So if you know anyone that wants a sweet dog, just let me know :) Enjoy the pics....

This past weekend we went to Montomery AL for the ORSCA Race. All three boys were to race, Larry, Adam, and Dustin. Unfortunately Friday night Dustin's race truck broke down and he was put out for the weekend. He was stilled excited to be there and help. Dad had his first real race of the season and did an awesome job! He cut good lights and even ran a perfect 5.00 (0). That's right, the zero's just kept going.. haha. He had a lot of fun and even managed to pull off a 6.00 in Adam's car when testing and tuning. He made it to the third round and got put out by the Champ (literally!) and would have beat him, but reacted just a tad too fast and red lit. We had such a blast and HB even got to participate with her head phones! She even had her own special outfits... 
With all the beautiful weather lately, you can't help but have a smile on your face! :) GG kept HB (Hailey Brook, this is what I will start to call her on here thanks to daddy!) She got some great fall pics of her in her cute dress in the leaves. I hope to get even more, but here are the precious pictures that she got! She wasn't in a real smiley mood, but they are still great! Thanks GG :)
