HAPPY BIRTHDAY HAYDEN

Yesterday for Hayden's birthday I took him to Chuck-E-Cheese with his cousins, Jack and Reagan. They all had a great time. Then Hayden and I went to Toys-R-Us to spend his birthday money which he bought more Geo Trax trains and tracks. For his birthday he received a Build-A-Bear gift card so we had to stop off at the mall on the way home and pick up his new friend, Pandy, the Panda Bear.

Can we fix it? Yes we can!

This game was a little too old for Hayden, but he enjoyed shooting the giant spiders.

The kid LOVES their pizza.

Getting Pandy all stuffed. While waiting in line he discovered the station where all of the sounds are located. He pushed the "Happy Birthday" song over and over. He would dance around in the store. Pandy now has that song in him so that Hayden can remember that he got him on his birthday and dance to it whenever he wants.

Kissing the heart before putting it into Pandy.

Giving Pandy a bath.

All ready to go.
AAAWWW he loves Pandy.

Hayden's 3rd Birthday Party

We celebrated Hayden's birthday on Saturday. He had such a great time. We had a Slip-N-Slide, a pool for the little ones, a Sprinkler Ball, a Water Gun Station, and a small Bounce Castle. The weather was beautiful. Just wish it was a tad cooler. I think we hit over the 90s that day and then you add that wonderful Kentucky humidity on top of that.

I was thankful that we got our yard fenced in before his party. There were 22 kids and 28 adults. Next year Mom thinks it will be held someplace else.


Here Rea Rea let me help you. (This is Hayden's cousin, Reagan). Some Hot Tub fun. We ended up draining the Hot Tub the next day and cleaning out the filter.

YEAH This is Fun!

It was hard to get the little guy off of the slide so others could go down.

He loves Race Cars and what better Race Car than Lightening McQueen.
Hayden loved the icing!

Opening gifts.
Loved his Geo Trax that he received from Memaw and Pepaw.

For weeks he has been talking about Better Batter Baseball. He was super excited to see that Nee Nee and Granddad got it for him.

Happy Birthday to my Big Boy!

My Beautiful Baby Boy, Conor

Here are some random pictures of Conor. He is getting so big. I cannot believe he is already two months old. Where has the time gone?

My little Chunk Monkey. For those who do not know, he did not break his leg. His foot was positioned under my ribs for the longest time and we are in the process of turning his foot back to the position it should be. It is looking a lot better. We go every two weeks to have a new cast put on. This is his fourth cast and we will probably do two more.


There is a little smile.

I was so excited to get a picture of him with a big cooing grin! He is such a happy baby, when he isn't fighting his sleep.

Potty Training 101

I am in the process of potty training Hayden. He will be 3 on June 29th. I was afraid to even press the issue before Conor was born. Although he has been going for months when asked this is the first time we have actually put him in "Big Boy" undies.


Hayden and his cousin Reagan watching Sponge Bob while "trying to go." Hayden is so tall that his legs are too long for his potty chair.

Today I made Hayden a Potty Chart. He enjoys putting a star sticker on the chart each time he uses the bathroom.

Happy Father's Day

Father's Day was pretty low key at our house. Hayden and Conor gave Trever a soft bound photo scrapbook to keep in his work bag. I got him a European Facial. He liked the photo scrapbook the best.

Some hot tub fun with dad.

Miscellaneous Fun Pictures

Saturday was a great day to go to the Kentucky Horse Park for Family Fun Day. My sister and brother-in-law were camping there so Hayden was excited to spend some time with his cousins, Jack and Reagan.


Coloring their horse heads for their stick horses.

Showing mom how he can ride his horse.

Hayden did such a good job coloring his stick horse that he won a real Blue Ribbon. They were giving away actual ribbons that you win for racing and horse jumping.

Favorite part of the day - riding the train!
