I am 9 months




Here it is folks! I am 9 months now. I crawl everywhere, pull my self up to stand, babble, walk (only with my walker), and like to eat small finger foods! I am a big boy. My favorite team is the Utah Jazz as you can see. My Uncle Todd gave me my cool Jersey and sweet kicks (that I will grow into). (:

prep·o·si·tion



Under the table, in the basket, standing by the couch. Let's just say Hayden is a busy, busy boy and on the move. He wants to be in, over, and on everything. He loves to investigate what ever catches his attention, is very proud of his new found independence which includes holding his own bottle and climbing up to a standing position.

He is all boy!!

Sorry the pictures are so dark (:

27 Years Young


All Erin wanted for her Birthday was a night out... I guess we've got that point where time is hard to come by and can be just as nice as most gifts. We went to Takara Sushi and got some sushi rolls, went and saw Toy Story 3 and ended up at Coldstone where we got Erin a ice cream birthday cake. She ate the whole thing! O.k. she didn't but it was good.

I love you birthday girl!

Happy Halloween!






I think it was this past March when Erin figured out what she wanted Hayden to be for Halloween - The Jazz Bear. By far, Halloween is Erin's favorite holiday of the year. By next week, she'll already have ideas for our costumes next year. Even though I give her a lot of grief sometimes, I really appreciate all the effort she puts into things like this that make it fun and memorable, especially for Hayden. Erin was Dora the Explorer, I was Handy Manny with a beard, Lady Gaga was there,Charlotte was a Zebra and Hayden, The Jazz Bear. We enjoyed spending time with Britney,Kevin, and Erin's family. We had some good food, got out kit-kat on, got trapped in a hail storm, and took Hayden trick or treating for the first time.

Help me kick the stuffing out of Cancer

Hey Ya'll

This is my first time doing something like this and I am a little nervous. I signed up to run a 5k for a Charity and volunteered to raise a minumin of $100.00 for Huntsman Cancer Institute. Part of the reason I am scared is because my friend scared me with a horror story of doing this same thing and being unable to raise anything.

Keep in mind $2.00 is a donation. Also if I get 10 people to donate $10.00 that is $100.00. Anyhow thanks so much! Love you all!

-Erin

26.2




This is way over due, but I wanted Erin to know how proud I am of her for running the St. George Marathon in almost 100 degree weather! She is my hero and has been so determined the past few months to be in good enough shape to finish this race. I know it is something that Erin has looked forward to for a long time and there were many times when she wanted to give up. Erin, what makes me most proud is that you never gave up even though I know the thought crossed your mind probably every time you ran. You accomplished something I can't do and many other people would be just crazy to do :) Your a great example of what hard work, determination, and a lot of sweat, tape, gum, gu, books on tape, and lots of running can do.

Love you my little runner

My two brothers Clayton and Cameron and sister-in-law Jenny also ran in the St. George Marathon. They all did an awesome job and made me think about running a marathon one day for just a second, then I remembered - somebody has to take pictures, cheer them on, and watch the kid... DARN!

David Hasselhoff



My first time in the pool! Loved every minute of it.

Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?"


While we were waiting for the Judge, I told Hayden that this better be the only time he sees the inside of a courtroom. Our Attorney tried not to take offense to that. It was a quick process and after a testimony by our wonderful case worker, Charity, and a short testimony by Erin and I as to our experience with Hayden and being parents, the Judge saw us "fit" to have all legal rights and custody of our little man. The Judge came down afterwards, held Hayden, and posed for a picture.

Case Closed!

I'm Tickled Pink... 6 Months




Well Hayden you've survived your kooky parents for the first months, that definitely should deserve an award. Let's make a deal - Let us take your picture AGAIN by the bear and then we'll let you eat it. Sound fair? You are the cutest, cuddliest, coolest, little boy any parents could ever ask for.

Love you stinky,

Mom and Dad

5 Months old!!!!!!





Wow Hayden is Finally 5 months old. Only 1 more month and we will be sealed to him. I can hardly wait!!!! He is growing so fast and getting more adorable every minute. His personality shines, he loves to smile, laugh, and talk. We are just not sure what he is saying yet. Occasionally he gets a little grumpy, he has a little tooth trying to come in. Most of the time he is a very happy guy and he makes us smile and laugh. The other can barely leave the room before one of us says "wait come here Hayden is doing this." or "hun you have to come see this." He certainly holds center stage around here. Poor Regis (: Although Hayden has started to notice his dog and finds him very interesting, he smiles at Regis a lot. Regis still seems uninterested, or is it just jealousy. Oh our fun little family! I am blessed.

My New Cousin!






Charlotte Jane Eggleston was born July 21, 2010 7lbs. 4oz. 19 1/2" long. Megan and Travis flew to Raleigh, North Carolina to pick up their new little bundle of joy. Another amazing miracle of adoption. They are first time parents and having a lot of fun with her. We're so happy for them. Hayden has one cute little cousin.

4 Months Old





I can see it now. I'm going to be 10 years old and my Mom is going to make me sit by my bear and have pictures taken. Well, we'll entertain her for now. Getting big!!! I told Dad I wouldn't tell Mom that he missed my 4 month appointment today.... Whoops! Don't be upset Mom.

Just laying around









It's what I do best. I had my first 4th and 24th of July. I was thrilled by all the excitement if you couldn't tell by my expressions. I spent time with Mom and Dad, Grandpa and Nana Wise and lot's of friends. The best part about the holidays... all the laying around.
