The Start

I am horrible at photo albums and baby books, so I figured I could start a blog to keep up with all of the amazing things that my children say and do on a daily basis. I hope that daily part works out. Just to get everyone up to speed...I am Hayley and I married to my high school sweetheart, Wes. We have to amazing children, Anna Kate who was born in August of 2006, and Maddox who joined our family in October of 2009. I teach 4th grade and Wes works for the electric company. We have an amazing life and I wouldn't change a thing about it, maybe winning the lottery would be nice. I have an incredible small group of friends that I cherish. We are also close to the same group of friends that we had in high school. We live in the town that we both grew up in and I teach in the same school district.

A little about Miss Anna Kate...she is a character. She makes me smile and laugh my head off every day. You never know what she is going to do or say and that is what I love the most about her. She loves to watch the same movies over and over, we are watching Cinderella again, as I type! She has the sweetest heart and will just come out and say,"I love you" at the most random times. She attends preschool 4 days a week right now but will be attending montessori next year at my school :) She has the most beautiful blue eyes and knows how to use them to her advantage. I love my Kate Kate!!

Now on to Mr. Maddox... What can I say about the most amazing and precious baby on Earth. He was a very wanted baby. I suffered two miscarriages before carrying him to full term. The moment he entered the world he has been such a blessing to our family in so many ways. He has taught our daughter that the world does not revolve around her 24/7. She now just thinks it revolves around her 23/7 :) He is such a sweet and easy baby. He is happy 98% of the time, very different than our high maintenance Kate! All you have to do is smile at him and he will give you the biggest, sweetest smile right back. I love him so much and can't wait to experience having a little boy.

A little on my hubby...He is a fantastic husband but a more amazing father. He loves his two babies more than life itself and I know he would do anything in the world for them. I know so many people say that but it is really true for Wes. He loves spending time with them and does everything from changing diapers to playing tag with Kate. I really couldn't ask for anything more. He supports me and wants me to be happy all of the time. He also puts up with my "fits" you know red heads have a quite a temper ;)

Well that is about it for my introduction. I will hopefully post every day and keep you up to date with what is going on at the Dover House!

Luv ya,
Hayley
