4 Month Update

Little Miss Hadley is 4 months now! We went to the doctor's find out the little details of our little princess.Weight: 12 lbs. 14 oz. (36 percentile)
Length: 25 inches (80 percentile)
Head Circumference: 15.7 inches (20 percentile)

We love her little head. But it does carry BIG BLUE eyes and an enormous smile (accented with dimples). She is tall and skinny like her dad, and is the spitting image of her mom. Hadley is a wonderful baby. I feel so spoiled. She is very pleasant and hardly ever fusses - unless you are getting in the way of feeding time - watch out! She has an amazing set of pipes! She does sleep through the night. If she does wake up, usually it's just for a quick little feed, and she goes right back to sleep. She loves to be center of attention. (Shocking, I know - look at her parents) She loves to talk and has the cutest little giggle. She is also rolling over. Most babies her age are rolling from their tummy to back, but she decided to be unique and roll from back to tummy. We are practicing doing it the other way - and she doesn't appreciate it. If only she can figure out that she just needs to move that arm of hers... She'll figure it out. She's tough. She also has an amazing wardrobe, thanks to everyone who has donated. We love our "Little Mad Hadder". We can't even remember what life was like without her!

Howard the Duck

We don't have cable. Lame. I know. But, why pay for something for a place we will be leaving in the near future. Not to mention we couldn't find anything that was less than 2 years. meaning we would have to pay an additional cancellation fee. (We actually thought ahead).

Because of this, we are proud members of Netflix. We log on through XBox Live. There you can instantly watch random movies or TV shows. I was flipping through my options when I found this...







I was excited. I remember loving this show when I was little! I couldn't remember the plot so I decided to watch it....

What a waste. My opinions in movies sucked as a child.

Hadley's Blessing

We had Hadley's baby blessing on March 7
















John did a wonderful job. I am
so grateful that I have an amazing husband who holds the priesthood. He is my sexy man of God!

















We were so lucky to have friends and family there. It was fun to have Hadley's both set of grandparents there!











Hadley was so beautiful all dressed in white! We are proud parents! We love her so much.

Valentine's Day

I'm rather sad... and jealous. I'm reading all these blogs on how people received flowers for Valentine's. I didn't get any flowers.... NONE.

:(

I guess this will just have to do...

Grandmas and Grandpas

First of all, Hadley got to meet her cousin Miles. Miles was born 19 days before Hadley. And yes, that is how we caught Hadley on film. I guess she really isn't our daughter unless she pulls faces at a camera!

This is Hadley and her cousin Brody with Grandma and Grandpa Fraidenburg. Brody is 2 months older than Hadley.

This picture is adorable of Hadley and her Grandma Mary.

This is a picture of Hadley and Grandpa Poulsen. This is what my dad would do with us when we were little. Rock us both to sleep. It's cute to see that he does it with his grand kids now.


It's not too often that we get to enjoy a few 4 generation pictures...

John (dad) Dave (grandpa) Pam (great-grandma) and Hadley

Kristy (grandma) Virginia (great-grandma) Tina (mom) and Hadley.

Christmas 2009

Life is hectic with a newborn! But it has been worth every minute of it! Sorry for being such a slacker. So here is the start of my update. Christmas 2009....

This is what Hadley wore Christmas Eve. It's funny because it's true.

We went to my parents Christmas Eve and Christmas morning. It was a little weird this year at my parents. Both my brothers and their families live in Boston. And my sister and her husband spent it at her in-laws. So that left me and John and Hadley. We still had fun. You get a little more attention when the others are out of the way. (just kidding! no, but seriously....)

Ugh! Hadley looks how I felt. G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S
Hadley got a little lamb. I think I'm going to change the lyrics to the classic nursery rhyme.

Just what John always wanted. Thanks Jared and Susan!

After having a great time at my parents, we traveled down to Murray to see John's family.

Hadley and her cousins on the Fraidenburg side officially got to meet! This isn't all either. 2 more are on their way!

This is the Fraidenburg clan. They don't all get to be in the same room very often where we are spread all over Utah and Melissa's family is in California. (I just realized that the siblings happen to be in order by their age, only they are going from youngest to oldest (left to right).)

Merry Christmas
