our first guests

We had James' mom, grandmother and uncle to stay at our house for a week during the 4th of July holiday. We had lots of fun but Hadley had the most fun of all. She LOVED playing with everyone and was just so excited to have her family play with her toys with her. Hadley warmed right up to everyone and they were fast friends.

We brought them to a favorite Italian place of ours 

Hadley (all accessoried up) with her grandmom 

They even all got to go build a minion scooter together (david and max too)

the builders

practicing selfies :)

We enjoyed a wonderful neighborhood block party (minus an incident which we won't discuss) with my sister's neighborhood. I am not sure when they'll realize we don't actually live there.... they've adopted Hadley and us and we love it there :)

Here's Hadley with some neighborhood kiddos, Her absolute bestest friend is the girl in the hat. She's a great big friend to Hadley and I am thankful for all their patience and kindness for Hadley.

my brother with my mom (chris and marla came up too!)

Hadley and her bestie (and what number juice box is that?!) Hadley needed a LOT of wipes that evening haha ;)

With great grand-mom

The family all got to see Hadley live in action at her swim lessons. She did pretty well but I think having a big audience made her more nervous since she cried a bit more than usual. We only have 5 more lessons to go!

Walking the neighborhood 

checking out the huge drop off hills we have around the hood

the group lounging around watching movie.... after movie....

The ladies all went to get pedicures and it was Great- grand mom's FIRST time, she loved it! (who wouldn't) 

Hadley even took them to the big pool and had a blast!

She was so spoiled by everyone with their time but they also got her a new baby doll, carrier, and a book! 

have to carry baby together :)

we even got to go OUT with a big group to a piano bar

We had a great time with family visiting and Hadley loved it!
