There were two in the bed....

February 25, 2008

Jadyn and Hayden were playing
in the spare bedroom, and they
thought it was the most fun in bed!

They were fluffing the covers,

hiding under the sheets,

and climbing around like a couple
of monkeys!

Who needs toys when you have a friend
who makes anything fun?!

I'm 22 months old!!

I will be very happy when I can simply say,
"my son is two!"
On the other hand, I shouldn't rush it
'cause I will never have these days back!
And with every day, there is ALWAYS
something new!!

He loves puzzles....

.....and playing with EVERYTHING
at the same time!

We are still working on the concept
of putting one toy away before
we move on to the next,
but what fun is that?

GOAL!!!

We took Hayden to the Saddledome for
his first live hockey experience.
He LOVED it!!
(It was old-timers 3-on-3 pond hockey,
but he doesn't know that.)

He kept leaning WAY over the railing to have
a better look and he was making me
very nervous!

"Hockey!!"
He could hardly contain his excitement,
so needless to say, he didn't sit
in his seat the whole time
we were there.

He wasn't too crazy about a strangely
matted and oversized dog!

He kept yelling out "goal!"
when the horn sounded.....
he even said "zamboni!"

Daddy is so proud that he is turning
out to be a hockey fan already!!
Flames game next?
I'm not sure my nerves could take it.....
and why would I pay for him
to have a seat??

It's days like this.....

.....I am an emotional
basket-case
of a mom.

I was crying as I put Hayden to bed tonight.
This is the first time he has
been sick (and have his first prescription) and it is awful.
Shivering from fever, looking up at me with watery eyes,
saying "seep-eeze" and pointing to his bed.

For a child with so much energy to be so wiped out....
it breaks my heart.
I just cried because I felt so bad,
and so helpless.

I did snuggle him for most of the day,
and I'm praying that he has a good sleep tonight
and feels a million times better
in the morning.

...Hayden for Hire!

My son loves to clean....
I have a little tear in my eye....
He has graduated from the Swiffer
to the vacuum, and he actually gets mad
if you don't let him help.
I haven't trained him to do the whole floor yet...
we're still working on "aim for the fuzzies!"

It seems the tree was a bit dusty as well.

Vacuuming....check.
Windex-ing the windows....check.
Light dusting....check.
Toilets......not yet.....I DO hate those the most,
but I won't make him do those 'till he's older
and he's learning how to "aim!"

4 days and counting......

Introducing the 'new and improved' Nemo #4!!
I'm very glad Hayden is still
too little to notice that the
new fishie is bright blue, and the
last one was a purpley color!!

And this is kermit the froggie!
He's pretty fun to watch, and I especially
enjoy when he floats around
all spread-eagle-like!

Let's hope all of the solutions
and cleansers and water treatments
we have purchased
keep these little critters alive
for longer than a month!!
