We went for a little walk in the neighborhood to check things out. Kendra and Marty have a nice little park right down the road from their house. I'm sure Logan will enjoy it and we will have to take them both there to play on our future visits.

After proud new parents and baby get to come home things settle down and Hartleigh gets back to her normal sweet self. She even stayed with Grandmother, Grandfather, and Aunt Dawn for a little while so that Cecil and I could go to The Melting Pot to eat. So far, she doesn't seem to mind staying with people. I was afraid that she would be very attached to me and wouldn't let anyone else keep her since I have been home with her all this time but that hasn't been a problem. I hope it stays that way.


Uncle Marty and her had a great time together.







She loves her Grandmother.


She enjoyed her little travel swing. Its like the one at home so it was her little piece of home away from home.


She is finally happy to meet her new cousin.

The next day while getting ready to go see Kendra, Marty, and Logan at the hospital she shows everyone that she can and will throw a good fit. She hates getting lotioned down and putting clothes on. I love this picture! She's cute even when she's upset. And no, she does NOT have us wrapped. lol!


She finally meets Logan and she is being ugly. I don't know but there might have been a little bit of jealousy there? I think she was really getting tired from all of the excitement actually.

Hartleigh and Logan finally get the chance to meet each other but they were both so worn out from their exciting days that they couldn't open their eyes to see each other.

She even helped the daddy to be relax a little. I think Uncle Marty was excited to have someone he could talk to! Ha! (love ya Marty).

Ok guys! I realize that this is out of order but I just now figured out this blogger thing finally! I'm a little slow when it comes to technology but I think I've gotten it and I will do better from now on!

Hartleigh went on her first road trip to Tallahassie Fl to see her Aunt Kendra and Uncle Marty and to welcome Cousin Logan into the world. She did very well during the long drive. Surprisingly she didn't sleep the whole time but when she was up she was very cooperative and didn't scream or fuss. The last hour of the ride was the only time she got really upset but who could blame her I was ready to get out of the car too.

The next day we went to the hospital thinking we would meet Logan soon but of course labor never goes as planned and it took longer than expected. Hartleigh could see that everyone was getting tired and needed a pick up so she proceeded to be the little ham that she has become and entertain the whole bunch.

Recently Hartleigh attended her first wedding. On October 4, 2008 my best friend got married and I was a bridesmaid. Cecil got her dressed for the occasion (with a little help from Christian, who got one of Hartleigh's famous spews). I think he did a good job. She was very pretty and was the life of the party.

I was so ready to see my baby girl again after those couple of days of preparation for the wedding and doing wedding things (rehearsal dinner, reception, etc.), that I didn't know what to do. I holed up in the house just me and her and dared anyone to interrupt our catching up.

It took us all a while to recover from that busy weekend. I think it finally hit me how much Hartleigh has changed our lives, but for the better.
