Hayden's Giggle

We finally captured Hayden's giggle on camera. I was throwing his blanket over his head and he just thought that was so funny. His giggle made me laugh which then made him laugh some more. It was really cute. Enjoy!

Hayden's First Haircut

Sunday as I was combing Hayden's hair for church, I noticed that it was hanging in his eyes until it dried and then just poked out in all sorts of directions. I decided it was time for a haircut. At first I was very excited until I took that scissors to his hair and then it broke my heart. He's not even 4 months old yet! Chris was helping me and eventually took over because I was hardly cutting anything off. After it was all said and done, it looked pretty good. Chris did an awesome job!

Growing fast

Here are some fun recent pictures of Hayden. I can't believe how fast he is growing up. He is almost 4 months and getting better at things everyday. He is finally giggling, and I absolutely love it!
Lately, Hayden has really grown attached to his blankets, snuggling with them any chance he can.

Loving his Bear Blanket

Hayden loves his mommy so much that he tries to be like her in every way!

Everyone always comments on this look of Hayden's - his "scared look". I just tell them that I think he is scared because Chris and I are his parents. Poor child. Mwhahaha!

Bathtime while Snoozin'

Every night as part of Hayden's "bedtime routine," we give him a bath, which he absolutely loves. However, this time, he was so tired that he fell asleep while Daddy was washing him.

Playing with Isaac

Hayden loved playing with his cousin Isaac (Sarah's son). They are 5 months apart, but basically the same size and height. The only difference is Isaac can move about easily while Hayden is still a sack of potatoes.

I think Isaac was jealous of Hayden's hair and so he thought that he would try to borrow some.

Christmas 2009

We had a wonderful Christmas again this year. It was our first Christmas as a "threesome" which made it especially fun. One of my favorite things is opening presents so I was very excited to be able to open my own gifts along with all of Hayden's. We spent Christmas here at home in Idaho Falls with my family. Sarah and her family were able to come down from Washington. It was so much fun to have the little nieces and nephews all together.

Hayden was upset because it wasn't Christmas day yet and so he couldn't open his presents.

Hayden's first Christmas!

I love this sweet face!

This is Hayden's jumperoo that he got for Christmas. He is still a bit young for it, but Isaac, Hayden's 8-month old cousin loved it.
