<\/a><\/p>\nI must use locks now because she loves opening doors.<\/p>\n
On warm, sunny days we make games out of yard chores.<\/p>\n
She nods her head to say yes and shakes it when she refuses.<\/p>\n She throws her arms behind her to run fast, which led to her first cuts and bruises.<\/p>\n She loves saying and pointing out ears, eyes and noses.<\/p>\n From 7 \u2018til 8 and from noon to 2 she dozes.<\/p>\n Tantrums have subsided this month; I think because of better communication.<\/p>\n Her expressions are priceless, whether expressing disapproval, surprise or elation.<\/p>\n Hailey is a careful girl and approaches stairs and slides with caution.<\/p>\n She always waves and blows kisses when she says goodbye and I think it\u2019s pretty awesome.<\/p>\n She went through a daddy phase, which I simultaneously loved and broke my heart.<\/p>\n But for the past week she\u2019s been a momma\u2019s girl, never wanting us to part.<\/p>\n She has a mouth full of teeth and the sharp ones are coming through.<\/p>\n She\u2019s mastered the spoon and is back to being my good eater, too.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
