Hallie's Pictures

My dear friend Jaime took these pictures of Hallie last week. She is just getting started in photography and wanted to "practice" on Hals. I think she did amazing, don't you?! Hallie hammed it up and we had a good time.

Jaime is one of my Cheetah friends and after the photography session, we had a sleepover with the rest of the Cheetahs. Amy and Cassie are going to start their MSW's at Arizona State and Jessica is also starting her master's here at BYU, so we wanted to have one big shin dig before everyone leaves/gets crazy busy again. Yes, I am 24 years old and have a child and I still had a sleepover with my friends. What can I say? They are pretty awesome. Hallie got to come too and though we sort of had a rough night (Hallie got scared sleeping in her pack-n-play in the strange place so the two of us "slept" in a reclining chair...) it was all worth it. I have some pretty awesome pictures from the night, but darn it, I left my camera up at Devin's brother's house Saturday morning when we went to see their new baby. More to come later, I suppose! :)









What a cute girl we have. She also had her 18 month checkup last week and weighs 27.5 lbs and is 32 inches tall. I got the lecture from the doctor for the second time about her weight. (She is a tad bit on the overweight side). I really don't think we feed her that terribly, she is just a big gal! Nothing wrong with that. We'll see if she slims down here in the next little while.

Those pictures are absolutely to DIE FOR!! Can I have one?! My pictures of her are out of date. As for the weight thing... NONSENSE! I love the way she looks and I would be devastated if she was skinny. I won't allow it, if I have to smuggle ice cream to her in the cover of darkness, I will!

The sleepovers aren't weird at all... I'd do it to if I had cool friends like that. :) :)

Jen, I had Carlie do her hair while she was here with her. She does a better job than I do; that's why it is so cute!

What cute pictures! Hallie is a doll. And chubby toddlers are cuter than skinny toddlers anyway :)

Mari Ann said...

I think she is cute just the way she is. Couldn't even imagine her any other way. Don't forget the "Great Aunt" with the pictures.

Those are adorable KIM! Hals is a doll face! I love the two pigtails (as I am sure you already know). SO CUTE!

As far as the Dr. goes, I've concluded that Mom's know best. She's beautiful the way she is!

So we are in Provo now. The first weekend we were here we went to Smith's Food, when the guy robbed the store with a case of beer. (Hear about that?). I thought... welcome to Provo Shurtliffs. Hahaha.

When are we going to meet up woman?! What's your work schedule like? I'll give you a call!

I love the pictures!! I am stealing them off your blog and putting them on my hard drive. Grandma needs copies to have out on display also, can you get me some if I am nice. She is soo cute. I will give her ice-cream and whatever she wants and it won't even be under the cover of darkness.

Hannah said...

Oh my gosh! The pic with the bear, the pic with the yellow flower! Ah, how cute! She totally put a smile on my face and made me laugh out loud! What a character.

Kim! Silly lady, I added you a little while ago... I am pretty sure I posted on your blog too. Maybe I am mistaken.
Anyways, it has been so fun looking at all the pics. Hallie is so darn cute!

ps, just read the caption and.... where is this dr coming from?! I mean, I guess charts are probably doing the talking, but seriously, she looks great. I am totally pro chunk legs and kissable cheeks.
