Now that Hadley has made her way around one full calendar year, we are about to kick off her 2nd summer! Yay! Every season is fun, but you really can't beat summertime! Vacations, pools, cute babies in swimsuits, popsicles, fireworks... love it ALL!
This Memorial Weekend, our good friends Mike & Lezlie were in town hanging out at their parents house (on Lake Lewisville) with their crew Southern, Griffin, & Austyn! It's so funny (and refreshing) to hang out with other people who are living right beside you in the trenches of parenthood. Long gone are the crazy Memorial Day Weekends of our younger years... they've been replaced by early bedtimes and making sure no one poops in the pool... which I suppose is still a little crazy, but in an entirely different way! Ha!
Anyway, we had a great time visiting with them and holding each other's babies! Hadley loved splashing around in the kiddie pool and was mesmerized by the "big" kids! She had the best time and as an added benefit has been sleeping hard all weekend long! Here are a few pictures from the lake!

This girl LOVED the pool! The water was ice cold and she didn't even flinch! She was pretty much diving in head first without even bothering to worry with things like breathing. Don't worry! We kept a tight grip on her! :)
And then as we were winding down our weekend, she decided to add the cherry on top!
She took her first steps! SEVEN in a row, to be exact!

We have been working on this for a while now! It seems that she will only walk with the balloon in her hand, however. Crazy girl! We officially have a walker, though. Just baby steps for now, but it won't be long before she is taking off. Good thing our baby gate is being shipped in a few days! Let the REAL fun begin!
Happy Memorial Day!!!
