Cereal #2

Hailey getting ready for the big meal...

Just like her mama, a control freak!

Yummy!!!

Beautiful beautiful beautiful baby!

This little girl has been eyeing my lunch for the last couple of days! She reaches out and tries to take my fork, my plate, and even my cup! So I asked the doc today if we could introduce rice cereal, and she said yes! Hailey was sooo excited! She ate the WHOLE bowl of cereal without throwing up anything...and if you know Hailey that is quite an accomplishment!

Bubba!!!

Hailey meeys her boy, Bubba!

He's yucky...

Or maybe...He's lovely!

Tongue up the nose!

Bubba has been the baby of the family for a long time! So Hailey's sudden appearance was hard on him. We figure (and secretly hope) that the love Hailey will shower on him real soon will make up for all the neglect we put on him...hopefully!

Ice Cubes

Hailey trying her first Ice cream...Ice cube...but don't tell her they're not the same! ;-)

I love how her face turns red from the coldness!!!

But she doesn't care.....

Get some!

It's pool time!

Hailey's first time in the pool!

Mommy holding her tight...

Look at that face!

chillin' with all her floaty toys

Hailey playin' with her hippo, shark and baby buluga toys!

sporting her cute new bathing suit!

Mommy and Me in the pool!!!

Push

Hailey's going to kill me...

Like I said, Hailey's going to kill me!

Gram's 50th

Last weekend was Gram's 50th birthday! John planned a family party, so we went to Kemah to celebrate. It was really hot, but really fun. For all the family out of Texas, Kemah is like Sea Port Village in San Diego. The neatest part about heading out there was that the whole place was destroyed by Hurricane Ike; the restaurant we ate at had 12 feet of water inside from the hurricane! You'd never know it though. It was completely rebuilt and beautiful.

Gram's Red Hat 50th Birthday!

I can't wear pink everyday

You know, I really thought we were having a boy. I mean I actually bought a couple of things in boy colors because I was so sure! A big part of my fear of having a girl was the color PINK. I am obviously over that fear, but when I saw this shirt we had to have it!

What a smile!

Chick Magnet

Need I say more?

Milillos go to North Carolina

Restin' up before his big trip!
Since Hailey gets up at the crack of dawn, we decided to head out to see our bestest friends off on their annual trip to North Carolina!

Yup, Hailey was up packing the suit case and ironing the clothes while her man Malachi was sleeping in...a glimpse of the future?!? Ha Ha!!

Mommy cut her HAIR!!!

Pre-cut length...

All those luscious locks!

The Final Cut!

Having a mom as a photographer is a snap for Miss Hailey Renee!

She can be funny...

fierce...

thoughtful...

and all around cute!

She wanted to pose with the diamonds...I tried to tell her it might be a little over the top, but there's no reasoning with this baby! She knows what she wants! :)

Finger lickin' good!

Who needs thumbs...or one of the 700 pacifiers mom and dad bought me...when I have all 4 of my fingers to stick in my mouth!

BFF Beth

Since most of my family cannot be here, I thought I should introduce you (via email) to Hailey's BFF Beth! Beth watches Hailey for me everyday and is a wonderful woman of God! Thank you for loving on Hailey!!

Some serious snuggle time!

Cinco de Mayo

How Hailey spent her Cinco de Mayo!

She was very excited about her friend Icyle being born!!

Congrats Chris, Amber, and Wyatt Hughes!!

Easter

I know it's a little late for Easter pics, but these were so cute I couldn't pass them up!

The actors of this production (all portraying themselves) are

Hailey Anderson, Malachi Milillo, and Drew Nordlander.

I love the look on Hailey's face..."I'm with him...I think!"

Hands off my woman!

A little about us...

We have been married for almost 4 years and are about to celebrate our anniversary July 23. We wanted to start a family right away, and may have even tried on our honeymoon, but God had other plans for us. He had plans for us to move to Texas, bring Amber and Mark with us, meet Molly and Steve, and buy us a beautiful house. As great as all that was...we were ready to start our lives.

First we would have to learn that, we needed to be faithful and believe that, "maybe we could get pregnant together!" And then we had to have faith that the pregnancy would be healthy. And then we had to trust in God's planning when everyone was having babies around us (thanks Jana, Dana, Molly and Nichole) and Jamie was just a gigantic crabby pregnant woman! Thankfully God had His plan of action in place, and we had Hailey Renee Anderson @ 12:54 am on February 15, 2009 (after 41 hours of labor!). She joined the world just 3 weeks after Malachi James Milillo was born to Molly and Steve on January 27, 2009. The Lord works in mysterious ways, and He has proven it every step of our lives!

We look forward to welcoming baby Fusca into our lives next winter!!

So Hailey doesn't sleep any more...Last night she stayed up until 9 and then was up at 11, 1 am, 3, and 5! I feel like falling asleep right now...and I'm giving a final in 7th period. Don't let the kids see me sleeping...don't let the kids see me sleeping! ;-)

Ok...so I know it's drastic, but I really want to do it! What do you think? Should I cut or should I go now?

;-)

Hailey has always been a well dressed baby, but this is getting ridiculous! She looks better than both of us while going to church! I guess that's to be expected! We hope you enjoy her outfits!!
