"Dont Get Mad, Get Glad"

While Hayden was playing with his blocks today, he was talking and singing and stuff. I heard him say "Don't get mad, get glad" and I said "where did you here that" He said "from the garbage kids on the t.v." Then I realized where it came from and started laughing. Kids really do hear EVERYTHING!!

Something I Love

Going to bed to find that Hayden had snuck in there and fallen asleep.

Yes Shelly, we're home and we had a great time. I would love to post all my fun pictures, but my computer won't let me:( It is seriously time for a new one.

We're off!!

We're off to spend the holidays with my wonderful family, along with Micky, Minnie and then Shamu!!
We hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and we'll see you all in 10 days!!

I thought "Oh Sh--" was bad

Hayden just said a really, really bad word. "Monkey Feet F--ker" Where did he hear that?!?!

And then when I was trying to talk to him about it, he kept repeating it. "Do you mean when I said..........." I'm so excited to be home full time soon. Maybe that will help. I know we don't use that word in our house.

How we got Hayden to Smile so Cute

Aunt Sheri usually takes our family pictures every year on Thanksgiving when she comes to visit. This year she decided to go on a Hawaiian Cruise instead of coming to Arizona. Crazy, I know. I somehow talked my parents(with a little help from Hayden) into coming and my sister Shilo came along also. We had such a good time. Shilo decided to have their family pictures taken as well. In this video, my Mom is trying to get Natalee to smile and she did the same for Hayden during our pictures. She is such a goof!!

What don't you get? It's my Mom's side of the family at our reunion this summer. We are on the upper right side.

Are we a good lookin' family or what?

To Vegas Again!! And the hospital:(

For our 5 year anniversary in August, Court gave me a cruise to be taken in November. He forgot that I don't have a passport(the last time we left the country I only needed by birth cert) and there wasn't enough time to get one, plus I was nervous about going to Mexico right now. So, we decided to leave Hayden and go back to Las Vegas for the weekend. My wonderful Cousin's Jeff, Kim and the kids kept Hayden for us and off we went.

We didn't take very many pictures but we had such a good time. We saw Terry Fator who is HILARIOUS!!! We were laughing so hard. I recommend his show to anyone headed that way.

Cute Richard and Stacie after the show. They're having a baby!! Yay!!

So, we get a call on Sunday from Kim saying that Hayden was feeling sick. So we jumped in the car and headed for home. He got worse along the way and he was having a hard time breathing. She took him to her sisters and gave him a breathing treatment and then we got home. When I took one look at him I knew that he was not okay. I loaded him in the car and took him to Urgent Care where they gave him a couple of breathing treatments and he got worse (his O2 was 85) so we got to ride in an AMBULANCE!!

They strapped his car seat on the stretcher for the ride.
He doesn't look excited but he was. He talked the whole way there and the paramedic guy was laughing so hard. With as sick as he was and for not being able to breath, he just talked and talked. He's so funny.
Heading into the hospital.
This was taken about 3:00 this morning when he was feeling much better. They gave him some more breathing treatments and brought his O2 level back up to normal and sent us home.
Waiting for Daddy to pull up the car, he had to play on the toys in the lobby. The chess game was really cool.

We got home and he slept for about 5 hours and woke up coughing and sounding terrible again. We went to his pediatrician for a follow up and his O2 was back down to 87. They brought it up with more breathing treatments and sent us for a chest x-ray. It came back normal so we just need to watch him and give him breathing treatments every 2 hours and call if there's a problem.
Waiting at the Dr. today. He was getting bored so we got the camera out. Look at those little eyes. Don't they look so sad? It's been a long day.................I'm exhausted.

Thank you so much to Kim and Jeff, Bryce and Brady for taking such good care of my baby while we were gone. We're glad you had so much fun Friday and Saturday. Sorry that Sunday was awful. I with you hadn't have had to deal with that. I feel terrible about it. We'll have a blast at Amazing Jake's so let us know when you can go!! Love you guys!!

Here's something you won't see everyday............

Hayden took a nap. It was wonderful!!
