Daddy's Little Angel


Who says that baby's sleep when they're traveling in a car. Definately not mine! However, Brian says that she always sleeps in the car with him. This is a look at Hailey after driving from Stevens Point to Milwaukee. Notice the red eye lids, blotched eye brows, and puffy eye balls! Hailey has never been partial to sitting and being confined in her carseat. She screamed for an hour straight. I was hopeful a couple of times when she stopped, but she was only preparing her lungs for a louder and pitchier sound. She got a lot of exercise because her legs and arms were flailing. Her lungs have developed perfectly, but I am a bit worried about her throut. I did stop at a rest stop to relieve her tears and frustration. I took her out of the car seat, sat her on my lap, gave her a hug and kiss, and asked her if she's alright. She looked up at me with her baby blues, stuck her fingers in her mouth while making a cooing noise and gave me a BIG smile. Needless to say, we shortly started off on our adventure back home. Several seconds later, the crying began. Ugh.....Hailey has quiet a personality. She's very strong-willed and knows what she wants and will reach the limit to try and get it. If you would ask my mom or her Aunt Leslie to describe Hailey in one word, it would be "busy." She's constantly in need of being entertained and stimulated. She knows when no one is around her and loves hearing the sound of her noises. I don't believe that baby's get spoiled because you can never give them enough love and affection.

Are you sure you wernt describing Jaiden as a baby instead of Hailey?? lol she sounds just like jaiden. however there is light at the end of the tunnel, Jaiden is much better in the car these days and in his pram, and he can even play by himself sometimes...when it suits him, he still screams at the top of his liungs MUMMY if i am not in his sight and he realises im gone but he is happy to play by himself most of the time now, so Hailey will get better, it might talk another 6 months...lol but she will get there, i cant believe how much these 2 are alike, in their actions and their chubbiness...hahaha.

Hi Hailey....this is grandma! thank you for coming to my house this last weekend and visiting. I know you will take a the energy that you have a put it to good use! You are full of life and want to know everything around you. I understand why you don't like your car seat...its because you can't see what out the windows and you just must know what is going on at all times. You are a strong little girl and already a leader...grandma is very proud of you and loves you very much! Please remember however to be kind to your mommy and listen to her when she talkes to you. She knows what is best for you. Hang in there Caralee LOL she's strong!
