HAILEY RUTH HATHAWAY

Hailey Ruth Hathaway
Born Tuesday September 28th, 2010
6:21 pm
7 lbs. 3.4 oz.
19 inches long

Her first name is a name that we both liked. Her middle name is after Grandma Ruth Hathaway and a good friend of mine Sis. Ruth Beck. So it is a special name for both Jarel and I. And then I really didn't have a choice what the last name would be :)

Kali seeing Hailey for the first time


Makena with Hailey for the first time. Makena has a treasure box at school that she gets to pick toys/candy from for doing her reading or homework. She found this little rattle about a month ago and got it to give to Hailey. She brought it up with her. Always thinking of others.


Tyler with Hailey. He didn't quite know what to think of her.


Makena holding Hailey. Makena was so excited when we called to tell her that Hailey was here! She couldn't stop smiling...she has been waiting a long time for this day to come.


Grandma Boyack, Kali and Makena holding Hailey


Kali finally got her turn to hold Hailey.


Kali holding Hailey...Kali keeps asking me, "Mom, what's your baby's name again?"


Tyler was more interested in the crackers I had. Here just laying on the chair relaxing. Tyler didn't want anything to do with me the first day in the hospital. The next day he was more open to me and would come to me, but still preferred Dad.

Park

Last night was one of those nights, that I needed to get out of the house before I went crazy. So we decided to take the kids to a nearby park and let them play on the ropes, slide and play in the sand. It is right by a lake in Daybreak. It was a nice relaxing outing for all of us.


Kali climbing on the jungle gym ropes.


Tyler on the bridge.


Tyler was so excited about being on this bridge, but when it moved he kept saying "ooooo"


Makena playing on the jungle gym


Makena and Kali in the "soup basket."


The kids watching the sunset.


Watching the sunset by the lake.


Kali and Tyler...good little buddies.


Jarel, Kali and Makena looking at the water. This was before we told the kids about the whale, so that is why Makena is that close to the water!


Tyler stomping the sand.


Tyler ruining one of many of the girls sandcastles that they start to build. He was a little stinker and every time the girls started to build a sandcastle, he would go over and ruin it. Jarel finally made him one for himself so that he could destroy that one and the girls could build theirs.


Makena building a sandcastle.


Makena took this picture of the sunset with the lake.


Tyler digging in the sand. He found a little doll that he buried and was digging to find it.


Kali and Makena making their sandcastle "big, big, big"


Makena showing me how big the sandcastle got.


Tyler looking at the lake


We told the kids that there was a whale in the lake. We kept showing them the ripples in the lake and telling them that was the "whale." We told them they had to look close to see if they could see it. It was mean, but funny to watch their little faces and think that a whale actually was in there. Makena wanted nothing to do with this "whale", but Kali wanted to go see if they could see it. So, Jarel, Tyler and Kali set off to go look for the "whale." No such luck in seeing this "whale." Maybe next time!


Kali was only able to see some fish in the lake.


The kids smashing the sandcastle they had built.
