Piper and Hendrix

How fun for Claire, Hendrix and Piper. To be cousins so close in age. They had so much fun while Piper was here visiting!

Piper did not know what to think about Hen. He was loud, I think he was trying to show off, let her know who is boss! ha ha. He was just trying to teach her the ropes. Hendrix sure loved Piper, he wanted to kiss her and scratch her. That is when you know Hendrix really likes you!!!

Battle of the DIVAS!

(Traci, Me, Marcie, Staci Jo and Leslie - Not pictured Jamie, we were so sad she couldn't be there. Not to be too sad, she will be here for Marcie's Shower!)

So there is an ongoing battle around the Hacker house - who is the Queen Diva?

While recently visiting Jamie in California, I told her that I thought she might be the Queen. I have changed my mind.

Here is how I rank my sisters on the diva list and why:

6. Traci - so cute and humble, and not very needy. However, she does do some Diva things: like going to the mall every other day (she is creating a super diva out of Claire!) and going out to eat for lunch all the time with the Super Diva's of Utah County!
5. Me - Okay, I think I practically tie with Traci! I can't think of one single Diva thing I do. Oh okay, so I love to get my hair did, go shopping and have my hubby take me for lavish dinners all the time. Not so bad though!
4. Leslie - She is a total Diva! Gets her nails and hair done monthly, has a cleaning lady and gave birth to the biggest Diva I know... OLIVIA!
3. Jamie - She has the world's best wardrobe, lives in a Orange County Diva Community near the beach, has a sweet tan all year round and has an addiction to shopping at Anthropology.
2. Staci Jo - Wow, I don't know where to start! She has beautiful long blonde extensions, a wardrobe set for a princess, has had a brand new car since the age of 16, can't go to the mall without coming home with a new outfit and so much more!
1. Marcie is the QUEEN DIVA: doesn't this picture tell all?

Here she is at her Bachelorette Party, wearing a Tiara! Ha ha I love it! She wanted everyone who came to her party to wear a dress, she is a total shopaholic (the worst out of all of us, I think we may need to do an intervention), and is going to have the most divafantasitic wedding in the world! I love this girl and couldn't be happier for her divaself!

Note to self: Never let 'One feed Hendrix.

Ok- so I can't really blame 'One, Hendrix is a maniac. He is at the age where he wants to feed himself, is getting sick of baby food and wants to eat what we are eating. Hendrix wanted to feed himself his dinner, and dad let him! Oh boy! Oh boy. I am still finding peas everywhere!

2nd Note to self: put down a sheet when feeding him in the living room.

Does anyone have suggestions for safe finger foods for Hendrix. He is almost 8 months old and has his two bottom teeth only! I was thinking of cutting sweet potatoes into french fries and baking them...
