Hadley's birthday party

Okay, so I can still not get pics to load onto blogger, but I figured out how to do this, so at least you get to see them, finally...

AAAGGGHHH

So, I have been trying to put up pics of Hadley's birthday party for like three days now, but blogger has been super annoying. I try to load a picture and it says it is loading forever, but never finishes loading. I have no idea what is going on. If anyone has any tips, let me know!!!

One year pictures

Here are just a couple of our pictures from our photo session today for Hadley's one year pictures. They were a much better experience than the 9 month pics, but still much more challenging than when they are 3 months old and they just lay in one place and smile. I would get Hadley all set up and then walk away and she would follow me, it was hilarious. Sorry for the sideways ones, it won't let me turn them around!

Hadley's first tricycle

Those of you who know Mike, know that he is an avid bike rider. Well, Hadley's first birthday could not pass without getting her first tricycle from her daddy. Although it will be awhile before she can actually reach the pedals and use them, she was very excited about the bike and pushes it all over the house! Notice the valentine balloon in her hand that she will not let go of, it is hilarious!

One Year

It has been one year since the best day of our lives. Happy Birthday Sunshine...

Valentine's Day

Those of you who know my mother, know her obsession with Valentine's Day. We think it has something to do with the fact that her birthday is the day before. Ever since we were little, the "heart man" came to visit on this holiday, just like Santa on Christmas. Anyway, this was Hadley's first Valentine's with Grandma Jankowski and she didn't disappoint. When I arrived after work, this is what I saw, Hadley decked out to the T in valentine gear, it was adorable. The last picture is a coat that they gave Hadley last year when she was born. Hadley was also lucky enough to get a visit from the heart man and got lots of great new stuff that we will enjoy playing with. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Jankowski!!!

Adored

Auntie Melanie gave this shirt to Hadley for Christmas, we just think she looks adorable in it! She truly is adored!!!

Baker family meets Orion

The Baker family came to visit Orion today so the Schwenzen's headed over to see everyone. Here are a couple pics from our visit.

Snapshots

Weekend update

Not too much to report this weekend. We were very family focused this weekend. Yesterday the three of us spent some time visiting with Grams at the nursing home, it makes her day to see Hadley. We make sure she has at least one visitor from the family every day. Today Jill, Lindsay and mom began the process of cleaning out Grams' house. It is quite the job, but we got a lot accomplished for our first day at it. Other than that, we just spent some time together as a family which was nice.
