Dada...dadadada

Well, I was going to wait and post this one in a few days, after the haircut had a chance to sink in...but I just watched the video and it's too funny to put aside! Haley just recently discovered that she can use her tongue and mouth for speaking and making different sounds. Her favorite is "dadadadadadada" which just happens to sound a little tiny bit like she's saying "Dada." She's most definitely not - Mama will come first, of course - but Kyle likes to think so I'll just let him believe what he wants for now!

Here is the video of Haley talking (and Kyle really excited about it!). This was the first day she started doing this and she is still 6 months old in this video. A couple weeks later, she's still doing this (and "babababa"), but now it's pretty much all the time! No complaints; she's precious!

Being my child, it came as no suprise that Haley was born with a full head of hair. It never fell out but just continued to grow and grow. She even grew what Kyle referred to as a "rat tail." I stupidly did not take a 'before' shot so you could see said "rat tail" but nonetheless, Kyle always said he was going to cut it off one day while I was at work. My response was, "please don't, I'm not ready!" Finally, I got really afraid that he would butcher her precious little head of hair so I agreed to beat him to it. New Year's Day was doom's day. Okay well it wasn't that bad! Of course, the whole entire event was video taped and photographed! Below is the video that was taken by a friend of my mother-in-law, and he was most definitely not messing around!
