What we’re up to #2: Hailey

Oh, Hailey. One minute she decides to clean and organize her room totally by herself and spends an hour doing it, the next minute she is annoying her sisters as much as she possibly can while whining that something about her shoes or clothes is “uncomfortable”. You just never know what to expect, but she is definitely her own person.
She completed a great year of kindergarten and had an absolutely glowing report card. I am pretty sure Mrs. Donati would have taken her home with her, if she could. We loved Mrs. Donati and were so happy with Hailey’s kindergarten experience.

I love it when the last day of school is a beautiful day, which we had this year. What better way to celebrate than some serious rope swing time – Daddy is the BEST pusher.

Hailey has endless supplies of energy and can be so fun. She is generally much braver than the other two, and more adventurous.

Another milestone – she moved up to Junior Worship at church. For being my adventurous and brave one in some ways, she is often the one most resistant to change. She wasn’t so sure about this, but ended up saying it was the best day of church in her whole life. She is an all or nothing kind of girl.

She loves her cousin Lacey and tries really hard to be one of the big girls, and not a tag-along. They do pretty well all together now, Addison has taken over the biggest tag-along role.

And she has been loving her first week of Summer vacation, although swimming lessons were a bit cold the last couple of days. (We are missing Levi, Landon and Ella in this picture – there are a group of 9 of them all doing swimming lessons within an hour. )
I love this girl’s spirit and unique personality – she is one of a kind and we love her.
