First Word!

We have been very busy trying to stay out of this rainy weather, getting ready for Trey's big 4-0 birthday and Hayden saying his first word!!! Well, actually 3 in two days! First came "Dada" (of course - he's been blabbing that for weeks) and then he told Dada "Bye" - wave and all! Then while eating lunch sweet boy said Mama, which he NEVER blabs anymore by the way. So exciting - he was all smiles, as though he was really proud of himself. :)

Hayden and I attended his very first birthday party the other weekend, our good friend Sawyer who turned 1 - Happy Bday Sawyer! H had a great time playing and trying ice cream for the first time - BIG hit you can imagine.

The party was themed in sock monkeys and H got to take one home - he loved it, carried that monkey around for the rest of the day :)

This is also our new favorite place to hide - behind the couch. Many games of peek-a-boo are played here!

We also had our 9 mo pics taken - oh my - my walls are filling up fast with all these pictures!!

Now on to more home improvement. Last weekend we finished painting the trim in the powder room to go with the new paint in there. I also installed a new light fixture - MUCH better. Not a fan of the old brass one. Just needs some touch up and paint on the frames of some pictures hanging in there and it'll be good as new!
