My last days as a 9 month old

Flusing the potty is HILARIOUS!!

Some stair acrobatics.

Just smiles.

Happy St. Patty's Day

I realized that I forgot to post the 9 month check up stats. Hayden is 31 inches tall(95%) and weighs 23 pounds(70%). He eats all table food now and is starting to drink from a sippy cup. He is such a big boy! Just a few more months until he is a year old.

The many faces of Hayden.

Check out the beads daddy got me at the St. Patty's Day Run last Sat.

A day at the Park!

Gotta do some pull ups to get big & strong!

Walking on the shaky bridge.

Sliding, but he's not amused.

Swinging is the big winner!! He likes to go high.

Happy Birthday Dr. Suess!!

A week of Firsts

My first attempt to "throw" the ball.

My first boo boo caused by a fall off the sofa, preceded by my first time climbing onto the sofa by myself.

If you look closely, you will see my first two top teeth.

My first break dance.

My first week of crawling.

The first time I was still all week ;-)

My first week of "cruising" along the sofa, and even letting go.

9 Months Old

Hayden turns 9 mos old on Monday, hard to believe that he is that old already. He has been going to Lakeside for the last few weeks, and really seems to like it there. Miss Renee is his favorite teacher, he sits next to her all day long. Last week they started a new program in his room and they have different activities to explore each day. Last week he did painting with brushes and play-doh work. This week he is going to be painting with popsicles?

His very first piece of art work. A valentine for mommy & daddy!

All geared up and ready for "school".

A few push-ups.

Love standing up on the sofa.

Also love "walking". He's pretty fast.

Almost Crawling

The adorable "mad" purring

A few more pics

Hayden tried to snag a candy bar at Trader Joe's while we were in the check out line, so they gave him a balloon to distract him.

Playing quietly while mommy works. He's such a good boy.

Some Catching up

It has been a few weeks since I have posted some pictures. It has been kind of crazy around here since we had to "fire" Mei-Li and go out on the hunt for another daycare. Hayden has been at home with me a lot while I am trying to work, and Kim has been here with him the rest of the time. He is set to start at Lakeside Daycare Center on Monday, so we are hoping that it goes well for him and that he likes his new friends.

Guinness helping keep him quiet during mommy's conference call.

He really likes to put things on his head.

Daddy's glasses are really cool.
