check out hadley's 5 year old pictures---to see how much she's grown :)
this is my favorite reason for taking pictures of my littles each year, around their birthday...i love to see how much they have changed.
especially when they are little---they just change so much from year to year.
last year, hadley had a bit of a baby face going on still...this year, i feel like she looks like a young girl.
growing up, i tell ya. growing up.
yes, i am well aware of the dirt that is lingering underneath her neck.
the girl has a serious tickle thing going on and it's nearly impossible to clean it.
pick your battles, people.
she has such a mixture of sass, spunk, tenderness, joy, attitude and love swirling around inside of her.
i often think, "if i could just be more like hadley..."
she is such a joy.
we love you hadley bean---you are precious.
she's beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI often say that I wish had more of June's spunk. Hadley is just beautiful. What an infectious smile she has.
ReplyDeleteOh Hadley, you are beyond beautiful, BUT PLEAE STOP GROWING!! And her hair, GAWD its cray cray long!

ReplyDeleteI don't think I would have noticed the dirt had you not said anything ;) She's such a beautiful girl, and from what you've said it sounds like she has a wonderful heart- but of course she does, because she has a wonderful mama!!
