Hayden Loves Shoes

Baby and Hayden Update

It’s definitely been a while since I’ve updated everyone on the progress of Baby #2.  Time has just gone by way too fast!   Everything is still going well and according to the doctor, he’s right on track.  He weighs around 3.5 pounds now and is a healthy little guy.  After much thought, we decided to keep Hayden in his room and give the baby our guest room.  So, for the past two weekends, we have been getting everything together in his room.  It’s all coming along nicely, and we continue to get more and more excited.  Although, it seems that the pregnancy has gone by – like everything else – so fast.  My belly is slowly but surely growing and he’s staying very active.  We’ll definitely keep you all updated when we find out more information or if anything changes.  :)  As for an update on Hayden………he’s still doing well and is loving life.  It seems like everyday he’s learning more and more words and is talking nonstop.   Hayden has been taking swimming lessons at Triangle Swim School every Monday and is doing great.  The big thing that he is working on is going under, holding his breath and swimming back to the wall.  I think he’ll be excited to show off his new skills for everyone in Florida next week for Thanksgiving.  He’s quite funny and almost every morning after breakfast, he’ll get Jamie or my shoes out of the closet, put them on our feet, take our hand and lead us to the garage door to go outside and play.  Needless to say, he loves playing and doing anything outside.   We’re still amazed at how fast he changes and grows, so you know more updates will be on their way soon.

Watch Out for the Fence

We went to Robin's house Monday after Hayden's nap and he had a fun time playing in the nice fall weather. This is just a small little vid of Hayden. He loves Naylor's riding toys, but definitely needs to learn how to take his foot off of the accelerator and stop:)

Halloween 2010

We had an awesome Halloween this year and had the best time celebrating with Gigi and Popi!  The weather was gorgeous all weekend, and we were really able to enjoy it last night at the neighborhood BBQ and trick-or-treating.  Our neighborhood’s Halloween celebrations are right out of a movie with everything being quite the fun production.   We started off by going to our friend’s down the street for a gigantic BBQ.  It was so fun to see all of the kids in their costumes, and the highlight of the night for Hayden – besides being Elmo, of course:) – was jumping in the blow up jumper.  He was so cute to watch with all of his buddies.  Robin and Brian also have two big CAT toys that the kids get to play with during playgroup that Hayden really enjoyed that night, too.  After we had some great food and it started to get dark, we took Hayden to our neighbors to trick-or-treat and then walked around the neighborhood to see all of the kids in their costumes and all of the awesome decorations.  It was such a good time and we are very thankful for being able to share these wonderful memories with Gigi and Popi.  We love and miss you!
