Happy Birthday _____!!!

Today is Pawpaw/Grandaddy's birthday! We had everyone over yesterday to celebrate but we still had to give him a Happy Birthday wish on the blog! For those of you that don't know, my Dad is still trying to decide what he wants to be called. He says he is going to let Hayden decide, so I guess it will be a while before he has an "official" name. Until then we like to call him both! Our celebration was a lot of fun, and we really enjoyed the company. It is so funny because Hayden will be so fussy, but as soon as his Pawpaw(that's my choice!) picks him up he is as happy as can be. He usually falls asleep in his arms. Whatever it is that he does Hayden loves it, so we are always happy when they can come over and help out! I will post some more pics later in the week but gotta go for now. Happy Birthday Pawpaw/Grandaddy!

Do I get a piece of that cake?!?

9 Weeks and Counting

Hayden turned 9 weeks yesterday, and today was his two month check-up at the pediatricians office. Everything was great... he even got his first set of shots! He weighed in at a whopping 12 pounds, 13 and 1/2 ounces and measured 24 inches. He is still our BIG boy! According to the doctor he is right on track, so we are very proud of his progress! We took a few pictures at the office so you can see how drastically things changed for Hayden from the beginning of the office visit to the end. He was just as happy as could be until he realized he was in a strange place with strange people trying to stick him! It was sad seeing his little face when he had to get his shots... it almost made you want to cry with him. The good thing is we all made it through it!

Waiting on Dr. Papciak...

I hate shots!


My war wounds!

Just a few other tidbits and I'll wrap this up. Hayden has started "talking" to us quite a bit now. It is so much fun when he "talks", we just don't have a clue what he is saying! It is fun to guess what he is trying to say and talk back to him. I like to call them our baby conversations! He is also smiling and laughing all the time which I can't get enough of. He seems to be a morning person just like his Momma! When he gets up in the morning he is literally the "happiest baby on the block!" He smiles and laughs more right after waking up than any other time of the day. I absolutely love it. He is also really into blowing bubbles which is both cute and messy. Two things I always have nearby in the house right now are the burp cloth and the camera!

Napping and blowing bubbles!
