Happy Birthday Hailey!
Happy Birthday to Hailey!! She’s so lovely 🙂
Happy birthday, Hailey! Your mom – including this post – help me commit to being furiously happy! You’re a pretty lucky kid to have her. 🙂
Happy Birthday to your Medium Fry! (I say Medium because she’s no longer Small but has not reached Large yet – that’ll hit when she’s a teen.)
Happy Birthday!
She’s in that weird place where there’s one foot in childhood and one foot just crossing the line into teenagerhood.
It’s a fun time! I hope she enjoys many of the minutes. I’d say every minute but that’s impossible because not every minute can be a good time.
Happy birthday, Hailey!
Happy Birthday, Hailey!
Happy Birthday, Mini Jenny!!!
Happy Birthday 😀
Happy Birthday, Hailey, and happy anniversary of the day you birthed such a beautiful daughter, Jenny!
My first baby just turned 11 too! Happy Birthday Hailey!
You and your fam are just a damn beacon of light. May the day bring Hailey a dancing man in a giant gorilla suit. (All days should have this.)
Happy Birthday, beautiful girl! Wishing you many more years of smiles (both getting and giving!) and fun times with friends and family!
Happy Birthday, Hailey! I hope you grow up as unique as your mother. And of course you will – you don’t have a prayer of being ordinary.
Happy birthday to Hailey! Don’t let Dorothy Barker eat your face! (top right sort of looks like that’s about to happen.)
Happy birthday, Hailey! I hope you have the best year ever!
YAAAAY! Happiest birthday, Hailey! It’s been so much fun watching her grow up, man.
Wait a minute, didn’t Hailey’s birthday just happen like last year? Where does the time go??? Happy birthday to Hailey! 🙂

Wishing you the very happiest of birthdays, Hailey!!
Aw, how sweet! Happy Birthday, Hailey! My son just turned 11 last week. I still don’t know what I’m doing as a parent.

Beautiful Smile! Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday Hailey! You are absolutely gorgeous, just like your mama, but more importantly, you are intelligent and inquisitive and full of spirit! I have a daughter who will be 11 in December. Tweens, soon to be teens!🎉
Aww, Hailey and her sister Dorothy Barker have the same smile. 🙂
Happy birthday Hailey! My daughter turned 24 today. September is a great month for birthdays!
She’s a lovely young lady – very impressed with her last night at your signing in Austin! (Caught hell from my daughters when I admitted I forgot to ask Hailey about Dorothy Barker…) I wish we would have known to sing Happy Birthday to her.
Happiest Birthday to You!!

Happy birthday Hailey! She shares a birthday with Jim Henson, Phil Hartman (who she probably doesn’t know unless she’s watched all of News Radio like my just-turned-11 year old did last month), and the kid who played Benji in Pitch Perfect.

How you have an awesome birthday Hailey! I have a September birthday, too ;-).
My best friend took me to the MN State Fair (2nd biggest in the nation – after Texas). We ate all kinds of crap, including an ice cream bar dipped in chocolate then rolled in bacon. EVERYTHING is better with bacon!
Happy Birthday, Hailey. Hope you weren’t out too late last night, but you did look like you were having fun in the bookstore. 🙂
A very happy birthday wish for Hailey! May she have a year filled with many more ups than downs and may she continue to radiate as much joy as she is in the pictures!

Also, and really I can’t believe no one has mentioned this yet, her birthday missed the September 1 start-of-term, and she is still eligible to get her Hogwarts letter next summer. I will be keeping my fingers very, very crossed.
Have a great day Hailey!!!!
How cool! She has the same birthday as me! HBD Hailey!!! 😄
Happy Birthday, Hailey! You are absolutely adorable and so photogenic. And you have the best mother! I wish you the best today.
She’s GORGEOUS!!! Victor had better invest in shotguns soon, because the boys will be beating down your door in a few years!
Happy Birthday, Hailey! Be true to your self and keep it weird like your Momma, anyone who doesn’t like it isn’t worth your time 🙂

Awwww! Happy Birthday! 🙂

Happy Birthday Hailey! Have lots of fun today!!!!!
Wow–she’s so grown up. My favorite picture is her look of unbridled excitement when you had that kangaroo or whatever marsupial you brought into your home for Victor. And she’s such a young lady now-but I still see that spark in her eyes! Happy Birthday Hailey. Never lose your inner child.
Lovely, lucky young lady. Happy Birthday, Sweetie!
Happy Birthday Hailey!
That TARDIS dress tho! Happy Birthday, Pretty Girl.
What a wonderful young woman. Raising a good human is a difficult glorious privilege.
Good job, Victor and Jennny!!
Happy birthday, you awesome Whovian you!
You bring so much light to your mom – who brings so much light & laughter to many people. So, thanks for helping us all by being you!
From Sarah (a fan of big metal chickens & a recent binge watcher of Doctor Who) & Emily (my soon-to-be 11 year old who makes me understand just how precious you are to YOUR mom by just being her awesome self, too!)
Happiest of Happy Birthdays, Hailey! Keep sparkling.

Happy Birthday Hailey!
I know your heart must be bursting with pride when you look at your lovely girl. Plus I think it’s cool that she can program robots. Could that girl be any more awesome? BTW, Sept. 24 is my wedding anniversary (21st) so it’s nice to know that you and I both share sentimental feelings for that date. Of course, I was in a white dress and eating cake and drinking champagne on my September 24. Your were in a hospital gown, probably in pain, with everyone on the floor checking out your hoo-ha on a regular basis. But the end result was just as awesome!
Wait, why is the dog trying to eat her face? Should we be concerned about this?
Happy Birthday Hailey!!!
Happiest of days and wishes for a most wonderful year to Hailey!!!
And booze and stuff to you for having an almost teen!
happy belated birthday! you have a lovely smile!
Happiest of Birthdays!!
Belated Birthday Wishes! Hailey, your sunny disposition and your love of life come right through the computer! 🙂
So I am late. Really late. But Birthdays rock and kid’s birthdays really rock. Such a beautiful thing. Hope you had a great birthday and hope it’s ok that your mom is a rock star on tour and not at home. Bet she will be home soon though and ready to hug big time. Happy Belated Birthday!
Rather belatedly as well, happy birthday, Hailey! You have a beautiful, happy, and vibrant daughter, Jenny. How lucky you are on so many levels. Also, if that’s what she looks like at 11 (I was a total troll until about 19), you’ll be beating boys off with a stick (or a taxidermied cobra), if you aren’t already.
I’m late, as always. But it’s like having a whole birthday week. I’m all for that. Happy birthday to your great grand and wonderful daughter.
