Summer time!!!

 Playing with my friends: Monk, Elmo, and Raffe

 I love them all and like to take them EVERYWHERE I go

 It's good to have soft friends!

 Getting ready for some "Row, row, row your boat" in the magazine holder

 I can climb up on the couch all by myself now!

 Watching TV with Daddy

 Whoa!

 Hi

 Too busy to take pics

 H and Mommy

 Hose!

 Sensory experience with water...

 =FUN!

 I love being outside with Daddy

 He flips me around and plays games with me

 Oooohhh!

 Mommy gives me cuddles

 and tries to get me to take a lot of pictures

 Let's go for a walk

 I have to hold daddy's hand

 Ribbit

 Time to go inside

 Wet after sprinkler time

 Big blue eyes

 Serious look

 Bath time!

Splish splash, splish splash

Hayden is so much fun at this age.  Although he likes to wake up really early, he is usually in a good mood and ready to play with his stuffed animals and read books.  He can now open the fridge and let you know when he is hungry and he is working on eating with utensils.  His vocabulary is increasing and I am surprised by how many words he understands.   One of his favorite expressions now is "Oh no!"  It is very dramatic and accompanied by his hands covering his cheeks!  Very funny!  Can't wait to see what Hayden learns and does over the next few weeks!

Happy Father's Day!!!

 What's that smell?  Did daddy just fart?

 Hey ladies!

 On to big kid books

 Tough guy at the park

 Teeter-tottering

 Playing with the hose getting ready for our BBQ party

 H had lots of fun playing with his hose

 H's new favorite toy

 Happy Father's Day, Ira!

 Getting some fatherly advice

 Reflecting

 Ah-ha

 Giggles with mommy

 Sorry to break it to everyone but Hayden IS Batman!

 Apparently the secret passage to the Bat Cave is underneath our chair

 Or is this the Batmobile...

 CHICKEN!

 H ate A LOT of chicken on Father's Day

 He knows how to get every piece off the bone - just like daddy!

Salsa or no salsa - that is the question


Happy Father's Day!  We had a great weekend.  The weather was beautiful and we were able to entertain in the back yard with the little ones playing in the kiddie pool while the adults had libations and conversed.  Ira got an electric salt and pepper grinder (I didn't even know there were electric ones!) and lots of love from me and Hayden!
