Last Waterbabies Class EVER!!!

Today was Hayli's LAST waterbabies class EVER! She is officially no longer a waterbaby and now a froggie. Conrad came today to show his support of his little girl graduating class. Hayli woke up from her nap, and when I went in to get her I told her it was time to get ready for swim class. Hayli was so excited... "swim, swim, swim..." "You want to go swimming?" "YEAH!" Hayli was so surprised when she turned around and dada was right there. Conrad asked her if he could come with her to her last class. "Yeah!" Such a happy little girl. So, off we went as a little family to our very last waterbabies class.

I love you's

March has been and will continue to be a month of monumental events. Hayli started the month off with a bang! Hayli told dada on the phone "Dada, where are you?" "Work sweetie." "I love you.".... AWWWWWWWWWWWWW.... She sure knows how to make mama's eyes water! Then a week later, Hayli came to me and gave me a hug and said "Love you mama!". She is just the sweetest little girl. Today I was reminded that I had to post this when I went to put Hayli down for her afternoon nap, and she said "Love you. Night night." What a sweetie! I love HER so much!

Last Open Gym Before Hana

Hayli loves to climb... and Open Gym provides a safe environment for her to do just that.

I hope we can get back into the swing of things quickly after Hana arrives!

Practicing for Froggies

Today was rough on Hayli for some reason. She was in a terrible mood all day. Hayli's mood changed instantly as soon as she hit the water for swim class. I don't what it is about the water, but it is the best soother for Hayli. Kayla, Hayli's swim instructor, is so impressed with Hayli. She is graduating Hayli to Froggies next term, so next week is Hayli's last Waterbabies class. Conrad is going to come watch Hayli's last Waterbabies class, so I am sure that Hayli will be thrilled that he will be there!

Kindermusik

Today Hayli went to Kindermusik. Hayli definitely has her favorite and least favorite parts of the class. Her least favorite part is rocking time with mommy. Hayli really just can't sit still that long. Her favorite part is the music box song because she gets to run around the room until the music box slows down and then she can throw herself onto the ground. She is so crazy!!!

Swimming

Hayli has been swimming since she was 6 months old. That is when mommy started having a life outside of the home. I met so many neat mommies through the classes that Hayli enjoyed. A new stage of Hayli's swim life is about to begin. She is moving on to "Froggies", which means no more mommy and me in the pool. I already figured that I will sit on the side with Hana in a sling wrap while Hayli swims in the pool with the instructor. I guess it is all for the best! Today I tried to capture Hayli practicing for her Froggie days. Kayla, Hayli's swim instructor, told Hayli to throw the crab into the water and to swim and get the crab. Hayli thought this was so neat to swim pretty much on her own. Mommy still isn't so sure about all this!!!

Hayli's New Trick

Hayli has been working on swinging on the bars at open gym for months now. And today, after being discouraged the last couple of weeks, Hayli tried it again... She was so proud of herself as she was able to do it all on her own! What a strong little girl we have!
