Give me some utensils please!

Abby's 2!

Abby's second birthday! I'm finally two. Isn't it great.

Happy Halloween from the Zoo keeper and her animals. Abby just loved trick or treating this year. She would run and then trip from house to house. We had a blast.

Protect the Family

I just wanted those in my circle of friends to understand how strongly I feel about this proposition. In the hope to sway those who may be on the fence or don't see the importance of this proposition. I have lived in California my whole life and have loved every minute of it. Recently the thing that is most dear to all of us has come under attack. That is the family and it's definition. Proposition 8 puts simple words into the California constitution in order to protect the institution of marriage and keeps the definition the same as it has been for thousands of years. "Only Marriage between a man and woman is legal and recognized in the state of California." Children have a right to be reared by a mother and father. It is the best combination of two inherently different genders. It helps a child develop in a manner that most benefits society. I feel it is our right to safeguard this institution.

The majority of California's passed a similar proposition just 8 years ago (Prop 22) and a few judges have overturned it. Please join me in making sure that this action is corrected by voting in favor of proposition 8.

Yes on 8

One Hip Little Girl

Obviously Abby is growing up a little too fast but it is hilarious how cool she thinks she is.

One Happy Little Baby

Do Babies really smile this much? Hailey just wouldn't stop smiling for these pictures Heather took. She is so much fun, and yes she is pointing at you.

We recently blessed Hailey up at Heather's cabin. It was a great day and special experience. Wish everyone could have been there.

One Month Old

My First Sunday Dress. I love it!

My first glamour shot.

I'm all growed up!

Aren't I the cutest little grown up you have ever seen? I am learning a lot of new words thanks to mommy. My favorites are yelling "pease" to get what I want and "all done" to get out of my high chair.

Sisterly Love

Except for the occasional smack on the head, Abby is loving her little sister Hailey.

Messy Eater

My typical meal make up.

Hands Officially Full

By the way we do finally have a name Hailey Rebecca Hatch.

Home Sweet Home

Mom and Dad are home, a bit tired, but very happy.

Some sort of smile out of our new daughter. Probably laughing in side because we still haven't settled on her name.

New Addition to the Family

Please join us in welcoming our new little edition to the family. She was born 6-25-2008 8 lbs. 8 oz. all natural. Don't think will be doing that again. Whew!

Abby Photoshoot

Abby had her first photshoot and she seemed to really love. Thanks to Sterling Hancock our good friend and professional amateur photographer he was able to capture Abbt beautifully.

A Fathers' Concentration

Abby has the same disease as her dad. "Total Concentration"

Love My Easter Dress

A bit late for Happy Easter but we all know Dave has always been a bit slower then the other kids. Abby loved her first Easter Egg hunt. It was beautiful sunny California day. Almost too warn to be out in the sun for a few hours.

Sweet Moments

We love our precious little daughter.

First Steps

Three days before Abby turns 13 months she decided to take her first steps.

Expecting Again. Yes!!!

Yes, the floating baby in the top left corner of the blog makes sense. We are expecting June 30th. We are happy to see that our future offsping has already learned how to suck.

Christmas is over

Christmas was so much fun with Abby this year. She loved the new red dress that mommy found for her.

Abby's B-day

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ABBY!!!!!

After three cupcakes she finally had enough. It has been an amazing first year. We love her so much. She has brought more joy into our lives then anything in this world ever has. Can't wait for number 2.

Late Summer Vacation to Oceanside

We had a great time hanging out in San Diego and loved spending some time with the Beardsley family. The weather wasn't perfect but the trip was great.



Abby and her new found friend Laine. Barrett and Autumn's adorrable new girl.

Looks like Abby has a new boyfriend. Henry has some great moves. Surely he didn't learn them from his dad.
