11 Months Old

Oh my word..... our baby will be 11 months old tomorrow. We are already making preparations for his 1st birthday party. We are so lucky to have the honor of being Hayden Bruce's parents and we love this little guy more than words could ever explain.
Hayden experienced his very first Christmas parade last night. He wasn't quite sure what was going on but he seemed amazed by all the lights. Here are some pictures from last nights parade.

Hayden and Daddy waiting on the parade to start.

He sat on the arm rest between Gran and Paw Rick. He looked like such a big kid sitting there.

I caught everyone off guard except Hayden.

Hayden talking with Gran.

When's this thing going to start??

This was the highlight of the parade for Hayden. He loved playing with the steering wheel.

Finally, the parade started.

This was his look for most of the parade.

Had to get a picture of them big kissable cheeks.

Tried to get a picture of Hayden w/ me but he didn't want to look.

After the parade we went to Gran and Paw Rick's.

Hayden has an obsession w/ remotes, just like all men do.

I made a few attempts to get a picture of Hayden and Gran by the Christmas tree with no luck. He was more interested in playing with the ornaments.

All this parade business has worn me out.

Hayden stays with Nanny most of the work week and he loves his Nanny and Papa. He keeps Nanny on her toes too. Carey had to install stoppers for the cabinets and drawers at their house b/c Hayden is a very curious little boy but his favorite thing to do was just open and slam the cabinet doors. His new favorite thing to do is crawl under the kitchen table at Nanny's and go over and under the bars of the chairs.

Playing with his giraffe.

Under the kitchen table.

Going over the bar.

Under the bar.

Giving his Grinch smile.

And back to the table and chairs he goes.

Sweet baby!!!!
