Even though Hadley was sick, we had a great Thanksgiving. I love good food and getting to spend time with our family. Family is so important to me, and I want Hadley to be close to her cousins and other family members. As usual we ate more than we should have, but I don't even regret it!!! It is great... we had all of our favorite things in one dinner!
Hadley has been having a cold for a week. We have to suction her nose quite a bit, which she does not like in the least bit. It takes both Jared and I to do this. Hopefully she will get better soon.
We did get her first Christmas tree this weekend. She felt the branches, but I think she thinks they are too picky. She really hasn't wanted to touch it much since we put it up. She likes it from a distance. Score for me!!
She is getting her two top teeth. One is out and the other one is on its way. She also knows how to do the touchdown sign( both arms up). It is pretty funny. This is one pic, but she can do it better ( as you know, it is hard to get pics of kids doing things like that!)
Jared and I had fun at our last LSU game despite the cold weather. We were so glad they pulled it out in the end. Looking forward to some improvement for next year!
I finished my last two projects for this semester today! Yippee! I am so glad to be done with that. Ready for a break from school!! Still have some Christmas shopping to do and Christmas cards! I gotta get on top of things! I can't believe it is already December!! When did that happen?

Nine months old!!
Wow! How time flies by so quickly! Jared and I were just talking about how when we were kids it seemed as though Christmas would never get here. It's funny because as adults it seems as though we were just taking down the Christmas tree and now it is time to shop for another one.
Hadley turned 9 months old yesterday. I still can't believe it. We are so blessed to have such a sweet, happy, and healthy baby girl. Her favorite things to play with are empty propel bottles, newspaper and magazines( or any paper things), anything electronic such as cell phones, cameras, remote controls, etc. She smiles right away when the light on the camera comes on because she knows you are taking her picture... you think that has anything to do with the fact that I am constantly taking pictures of her;) She loves books! We read to her a lot. She can sit up and stand up in her bed when she wakes up- don't worry her daddy has lowered the bed to its lowest level. She is crawling around everywhere. We are trying to post a video and hopefully we will be able to get that done soon. She also really likes Rusty, our golden retriever. He lets her pet him or should I say pull his hair. We fed her the baby food meat for the first time the other night. I will post a picture that will show you exactly what she thought about that. I can't say I blame her.. it smelled horrible. She is down to two naps a day and 4 feedings a day. She eats and sleeps well. She has been sleeping through the night for quite some time now. We put her in bed at 8:00 p.m. and she sleeps till around 6:30 or so every day. We are so blessed to have such awesome family to help us and to make her feel loved. We can't wait to share the upcoming holidays with you guys.

The latest at the Walker house
Whew! I have been so busy with school and chasing my little darling. Yep.. she has finally learned to crawl. She is non-stop and having a blast. I don't have quite as much free time as I used to now that she is more mobile and takes less naps. She is sleeping and eating well, and she is getting a new tooth on top. This will be her third one. She has really handled teething well. We have been to the Bengal Belles luncheon twice since I posted last. She loved the band and the cheerleaders. The semester is winding down and I only have one more project in each class and then I am done! Yippee! I am ready for a break before next semester. Looking forward to a big fat Thanksgiving dinner and some time with the family. LSU has left a lot to be desired these last few games... let's hope that they can shut down Ole Miss. It won't be easy, but I am trying to stay hopeful.
