It's been pretty uneventful here since the last post--which is always a good thing! We had a lovely Valentine's Day. Christian picked up a yummy breakfast from Rick's then we headed to the Arkansas/UK game. As you can see from the picture below, Hadleigh was calling the Hogs with everyone else, but she was secretly sporting her Kentucky Blue bloomers. It was fun to see our two favorite teams play...well one team played and the other stood by and watched one guy dominate! Hadleigh and Scarlett spent Valentine's night together making cupcakes and staying up really late playing off all the sugar they consumed while the adults hit Dickson Street for a delicious dinner.
I can't believe Hadleigh is almost 18 months old. Lately she has been a big help around the house. She will carry a rag around and clean up all the milk that she spills (which is a ton). She's really pretty good at putting things back in the drawers or basket after she's dumped everything out and she especially loves to throw things away. We almost lost some Tupperware to the trash tonight as she mistakenly took the trash for the sink...she did realize her mistake and proudly dug it out. She loves shoes and insists on carrying them all over the house. Thankfully though she has just as much fun carrying them back to the closet and placing them perfectly back where she found them (that's better than I do). We haven't made much progress in the potty department, but we haven't been trying too hard. She does recognize when she needs a clean diaper now and will answer 'yes' if she is dirty. She just recently learned the answer to "what's your name?". She calls herself Hadee and will kiss Hadee in the mirror--so cute! This week she started in her new class at preschool. Tomorrow will be the first day that she is expected to take a nap on a cot and not in a crib--we'll see how that goes.
