We are still around....just busy :)

In this post Haley is 1 year, 3 months, and 13 days old:


Well, I would say that I haven't had time to update the blog, but that wouldn't be the whole truth. My Daddy taught me that you have time for anything, you just have to chose to use the time you have for the things you might not always want to do. So "not having time" is just a bad excuse....so I apologize!


Things have been busy around the Peterson house. We have had visitors, Memaw came to visit a couple of weekends ago, and we have celebrated birthdays and holidays, and just been plain busy!


Haley is doing WONDERFUL! She is growing each and every day, and really turning into a very independant young lady. She loves to be chased around, and will run away giggling every time! She likes to point, loves to turn on and off lights, and laughs at herself on a regular basis. She LOVES to be outside, and we are so thankful that it is starting to get warm here in the south so we can be outside all the time.


Ethan and I are doing great too. We are both trying really hard to get into shape, and have committed to running in the Double Decker 10k on April 25th. He is running with the fire department and I am running with some girls here in the neighborhood. So far, it looks like Meredith, Robyn, Amy and I will be running together. We are hoping to get a few more of the mommies to join, but if not we will push ourselves through. Meredith and Robyn have been running for about a month now, and Amy and I just jumped on board. I feel it every time I run, I for sure am no longer a "track star" but it is so refreshing to finish strong and know I have done something good for my health.


Today, Meredith and I took Myla & Haley to Holli's Sweet Tooth (a great little candy shoppe here in town) in hopes of having their pictures made with the Easter bunny. We were both nearvous that the girls wouldn't do well. Much to my surprise, Haley LOVED the Easter bunny, and was more than happy to jump in his lap. Myla on the other hand, wanted NOTHING to do with him. Maybe next year!


Well, I think that is about all. I have included a bunch of pictures, and will put captions so y'all know what we were doing when. I will try very hard to do better, and keep y'all updated on our running progress. One day at a time....one foot in front of the other! Take care!


Love,

Susan

Park pictures and first ice cream cone...

In this post Haley is 1 year, 2 months, and 19 days old:

As I said before, we took Haley on Saturday to Avent park to play and then we went to Holli's sweet tooth, where Haley had her first ice cream cone. As you can tell it didn't take her long to catch on.

She loved the slide at the park, learned very quickly how to go down on her own. We are loving the nice weather, and hoping it is here to stay!

Enjoy the photos!

We took Haley to the park on Saturday, and as you'll see in these video's she had a WONDERFUL time :)

We are all doing great, enjoy the videos! Going to the doctor on Wednesday for her 15 month check up....hard to believe it's time for that already! I'll be sure an post her "stats"

Well, life is busy these days, and only seems to get busier, which is why I have been negecting our blog, and subsequently leaving y'all in the dark I guess. Sorry, I'll try and do better!

We are great, haley is growing SO fast, and we can't believe how much she has changed just since Christmas! She is walking ALL OVER THE PLACE now, and into everything! She keeps us laughing, and is really starting to become a little lady! She says, Thank you to everything (it also seems to be her form of please" and has gotten to a point where she is starting to test us. We won't tell her, but it's kinda funny to watch her test her limits :) She'll learn!

Ethan and I are doing great as well. Just working and enjoying our little girl. We got a Wii not too long ago, and have had a lot of fun playing it. Like big kids I guess! :)

Well, I know this is short, but I posted A LOT of pictures for your veiwing pleasure, and will be posting some video as soon as I get it uploaded!

Gotta go help Daddy with a real stinker!

Love,
Susan
