Favorite Things

Two of Hayden's favorite things are "building" things with his daddy and being naked. This past weekend, Matt taught a class at our youth rally and he built a cross so the kid's could "nail" a sin they wrote on a piece of paper to the cross. Well, Hayden "helped" him build the cross! I would be holding two of the pieces together for Matt to nail them in and Hayden would come sit on the boards and they'd fall. Then he'd hit us over the head with the empty apple juice bottle he was playing with. Then he almost snapped his fingers in the tape measurer. So, we decided that it was time for a little nap:) He loves the tools and I really think he believes he's helping. I told Matt when Hayden gets older, they'll have to go up to Home Depot on Saturdays and build stuff together. As far as these naked pictures go, Hayden loves to have naked time every night. When he gets out of the bathtub, just before he goes to bed he gets to play naked. Matt and I just sit and laugh at him. I just want to bite that cute little hiney! (ok, sometimes we do bite it!) Yesterday he got to play naked downstairs. Sometimes the "toy" he decides to play with while naked isn't really a toy! (ya know what I mean??) So, here's some pictures of Hayden's favorite things.

This is for you Jenn!!

Ok Jennifer. You wanted me to update my blog. I don't have anything new to talk about right now, so this blog entry is for my favorite person in the world...I mean, besides Buster and Hayden:)

Big Boy!

Matt and I took Hayden to get his first birthday pictures made. Here's a few of my favorites!! He looks so big in all of them. He's started acting like a toddler and not so much like a baby lately. He's really been trying to talk a lot! He can say Mama, Dada, Bye, dog, duck, ball, light, bath, and "Da-Da-Den" for Hayden. He's been so much fun the past month and we are excited to see what this year brings us!
