I have to apologize for the lack of posts lately.  The computer was broken and our brother-in-law was kind enough to let us use another one of his computers.

I cleaned out Hadley and Zoey’s room today.  There were clothes everywhere and toys too.  We were lucky enough to get a whole tote of hand-me-downs for Hadley and she has 23 pairs of pants.  I figure with this many clothes I should not have to do laundry for about a month.

About 10 seconds after I finished cleaning I heard a lot of banging around in the bedroom.  I went in to see what was going on and I asked Hadley what she was doing.  She replied, “I am making messes.”  When I asked her why, she said, “because that is the way God made it.”

Hadley has also been uncharactoristically angelic lately.  We went to Walmart and she was PERFECT.  I even got those looks from other women that say, “wow, impressive!”  I have been on a high from how well behaved she has been latley, and I am sure she will burst my bubble soon enough.  It will probably be at a time that will be most embarrasing to me and when I least expect it.

Zoey Belle has been sleeping much better.  We stuck her in the pack n play in the office and all of a sudden the kid loves to sleep.  Go figure.  She is also crawling at an alarming pace, pulling herself up on things and starting to walk around them.  She is only 8 months old, and I wish everyday that it was the day I brought her home from the hospital.

Hadley and Zoey Belle have formed what I hope is a lifelong friendship.  Hadley goes to play in her room, and Zoey follows behind her laughing and giggling the whole way.  The girls will play in there for as long as I let them and stay perfectly content.  It is the sweetest thing to watch.

Everyone is happy and healthy and it has been the best way to end this year!  I am getting excited for Christmas when we can see family again and wishing that so many people we love didn’t live so far away.
