The Leaf Family






Hello Everyone! I have never wrote a blog before so here is our attempt to keep everyone posted on the crazy of our everyday life. Our little girl, Hailey is almost 18 months old. Time really goes by too fast. Keeping up with her unbelievable energy is quite a challenge for me but well worth it. She is walking, running and practically sprinting to whatever she can get her hands on. I never thought it was a good idea to get a leash for a child but now I understand and think it's a brilliant idea. Jeff is back to studying for the last of three levels for his CFA designation. His exam is in June and we can't wait to have our favorite guy back! I am also currently still in school working toward a Bachelor in Health Science Adminstration and just waiting to see if I can get into a nursing program at either Macomb Community College or Schoolcraft College. I have also decided to return to part-time work as a traveling dental assistant with a company that provides dental services to nursing homes. I am excited for the new opportunity and look forward to whatever the next year will bring me.

We had a wonderful 2nd Family Christmas this past year. Hailey was so excited to open gifts and is loving playing with them every day. She got a awesome trampoline from her Uncle Kermit & Karry and loves to go in it and jump around. She even got to visit with two Santas this year. Hailey visited her first Santa at Twelve Oaks Mall with her buddy Mack and then got a gift from Santa again at the annual Hart Christmas party. She seems to be okay with Santa so far she doesn't scream but she also clings to mommy and daddy before going to Santa. We spent New Years at the Hart house this year and Hailey enjoyed playing with her buddies Mack, Alex and Luke. She did not have an easy time sleeping that night and happened to wake at 11:45pm so she was able to cheer in the New Year with the grown ups and mommy & daddy got a big hug & kiss from our precious girl.
