September

 Eating blueberries and Chex

 Although H loves to feed himself, it can be a little messy

 Bringin back Baby Bjorn

 Chugginton!  Playing with Koko and Wilson in his 'boat'

 AAAUUUUGGGHHH!

 Oh no!

 Getting so big!

 Funny faces

 AAAUUUGGGHH!  It is frustrating being 20 mos old!

 Cutie pie!

 Laughing boy!

 Silly boy

 Trying to fit in the dump truck

 Hey!

 Big smiles!  Bye mom!

It's football season!  H lets us know his favorite teams!  He moved up to the bigger kid room at daycare and is loving it!  We are so proud of our little boy!

August

 We found a great pool near our house for H

 He got in with daddy

 They started with the small fountains in the baby pool

 Soon H was wading by himself

 Check out the mushroom!

 Having fun in the pool

 Coy Batman

 Didn't anticipate the wedgie factor with this swimsuit.  We liked that it maximized skin coverage - good for those who are lacking in melanin!

 H and daddy

 Our little cutie

 Mommy and H pic

 Pondering the meaning of life / watching TV (it's the only time he is still!)

 Must have been a tense moment with Curious George

 Reading with daddy

 H loves his counting books

 Sometimes it feels like the 'terrible twos' have started already

 Busy with his train

 Up to mischief

 Hey!

 Jordan pose

 Probably on the verge of too many pics at this point - hence the blank stare

 Fancy footwork with the basketball

 Soccer anyone?

 Silly boy

 Smiles

 These pics show H in action - trying to get into his dump truck!  He is just a little too big!

 A new perspective in train playing

 There's Elmo

 Sitting on top of his 'boat'

Ready for bed.

Hayden is able to climb up and down stairs.  He is easily putting three words together and knows almost all the words in his books.  Next month he will be moving up to the Hickory room with some of his old friends.  He will work on eating with utensils at which he is getting better and better.  What a great summer it has been with our little boy!!
