There are a few things Hailey says and does right now that I just have to write down because I never want to forget them ...
When referring to a pillow she calls it a "peep, peep"(even though she knows how to say pillow), why, I do not know, but it has stuck and we find ourselves calling it that now.
Her favorite phrase - "whose that"? She asks me this all the time! It could be someone she knows well or a total stranger, but the question is always the same.
When referring to herself she always says "you" - "mommy, help you," "mommy, hold you". No matter how often we correct her the "you" just sticks.
She loves animals and can name most of them by their correct names, but when it comes to animals that are pets, if she knows one with a "name" she refers to all others by that name. For example, we have a kitty, Zoe and my mom has a bird, Emma. She knows how to say kitty and birdy, but yet refers to ALL kitty's as Zoe and ALL birdy's as Emma.
She also hears us call each other by name once in awhile, I have brought this up before where she yells "Tim or Timmy", well, Tim calls me honey all of the time so Hailey has now taken to call me honey on occasion. It kills me! "Honey come here" - "Honey, whose that?"
Lastly, Hailey LOVES to sing and HATES car rides so we have found when we are doing something she hates mix in something she loves - singing. This has now taken on a mind of its own. Once we start singing we cannot stop the rest of the way home or we deal with screams. Then when singing we all have to join in, if not you hear from the back seat - "sing, mommy" - "sing daddy" and when we sing she joins in wholeheartedly. I wish you could hear it, it melts my heart every time I hear our voices together. She is growing up WAY to fast!
On Monday Hailey and I went out shopping with friends I grew up with. They both have babies, Sarah is almost a year old and Bradyn is almost 9 months. Hailey loved the babies and we had lots of fun. We have to get together more often, life just seems to run away from us!

I absolutely agree, we have to get together more often, even if just for a cup of coffee. Come to think of it...we could form a Monday night coffee club hehe! :) We (Sarah and I) had a great time with you guys!
