OCTOBER

Wow! Life changes when you have 2 kids. I need a lot more arms and hours.

I love blogging, but I love my kids more. So instead of blogging I'm feeding, reading, holding, watching, and loving my little ones. My blog has suffered but I'm ready to play catch-up and remember all the memories we're creating.

Enjoy some photos and videos from the month of October:

Hayden's Candy Haul:

It's was pretty sad how little candy he got, (I remember the days when I could fill a pillow sack), but he didn't care. He was so excited with ALL of his candy. He was in Awe for several minutes.

Washington Visit

Hayden and I visited Washington during the last 2 weeks of May. We played with Grandpa, Grandma, Nana, and Pops. And I attended Jamie's Bridal Shower and Ashley's Baby Shower.

Goin' for a Ride with Pops:

Hayden thought he was riding in "Lightning McQueen"

"It's so fast! Cha-Chow."

Thank you Grandparents for putting up with us for a couple of weeks. We sure had a lot of fun. It was great to spend some individual time with you before Baby Sister and Baby Cousins come.

Nana and Grandma Visits

We have had a couple of exciting weeks. Hayden has been spoiled by both Nana and Grandma!

Nana's Visit:

A Trip on the Heber Valley Railroad

Nana had bought the train tickets in advance, so we decided to go even though Hayden was sick. In most of the pictures Hayden has a dazed look. He was also super cuddly, which was great for Brian and I cause we didn't have to chase him up and down the train aisle.

Thank you Nana for the fun adventure.

Hayden being SUPER CUDDLY and Brian taking advantage of it (Brian's a sucker for Hayden Loves).

We even got to spend some time with Fluffy and her family.

Hayden being a Good Sport, even though he was sick.

Some scenery on the ride.

Our Little Family

Nana even took the time to teach Hayden a "Lay-Up" on his new basketball hoop:

(Did you notice Hayden wearing "Big Boy Underwear" when he did his 'Long Shot'? Yes! Hayden is on the Potty Training Journey.)

Grandma's Visit:

We only had a couple of days with Grandma, but Grandma took every chance to spoil the little guy. And Hayden took advantage of Grandma's spoiling. By the end of the first day Hayden was following Grandma around, or was it Grandma following Hayden.

Grandma let Hayden ride the Sports Car about a Zillion Times while Ashley and I shopped.

She also let him watch Word World a Zillion Times on the lap top or the iPad (whichever one was not in use). They made a Movie Night out of it by staying up past bedtime and by eating popcorn.

The day Grandma left, Hayden searched the whole house saying, "Where's G-wan-ma?" It was sweet and sad at the same time.

Thank you Nana and Grandma. It's so sweet of you to visit us and we had a blast making memories!
