Happy Thanksgiving!!!

On Thanksgiving we went over to Cousin Dan and Lynn's house. Kevin's creamed corn casserole was a big hit! Hayden was dressed to the nine in an outfit that Jill Selhorst bought her.

On Friday, we had friends over for a 2nd Thanksgiving. Kevin made a turkey, gravy and stuffing. I made banana bread, mashed potatoes, and rolls. Joe made pie, Andrea made soup, Yogi made sweet potato casserole, Mandy made green bean casserole, and Lauren made meatballs. It was delicious! Hayden is wearing her Turkey Hat that she made at daycare.

Isn't it cute?

On Saturday night we rented movies and hung out downstairs until Hay fell asleep on Kevin. It was a great weekend with friends and family. We even got to skype with Clay, Lisa, Mitch, Will, Grace, Papap, and Grandma Jo. All in all, we have much to be thankful for this year!!!

Fun weekend

Hayden has an etch a sketch that she absolutely loves!
So excited for the Buckeye game!

Touchdown!! She is wearing Kyle's hat

It rained all weekend. On Sunday we get all bundled up for a walk

This is a video of Hayden doing "I'm a Little Tea Pot" and "The Itsy Bitsy Spider." The second video is of Hayden cracking herself up as she hits her head with a plastic Potato Head Hat over and over again :)

How Hayden has grown

This weekend was busy. Kevin had a poker night on Friday, I had a girls night on Saturday and by the time Sunday evening rolled around, we realized we had taken zero pictures of our little monkey! So I thought this week we could look back at the last year of her life and how she has grown and changed. The above picture is from 1 year ago. I remember thinking how "grown up" she looked in this picture...
I loved these PJ's from Auntie Loli.

Hayden still cracks up laughing when she sees Guido dressed up in his Buckeye gear

luv the hair!!!

Look at those cheeks!

How cute in the outfit Grandpa Kuhlman got her

Looking sweet at Mandy and Michael's wedding

classic!

Beach Baby

Hay is so big now. She says lots of things, gets into lots of things, sings songs, dances, and is soo much fun. Wow, the time has flied.

Aunt Lisa!!!

Typical Friday night in our household. Asleep on the couch.....

ZZZZzzzzzzz

On Saturday we got to see Aunt Lisa. She came all the way in from Ohio and Hayden was so excited to see her. All the way to Balboa park, I would ask Hay if she was excited to see Aunt Lisa and she would say back "Yeah!" We were really looking forward to it and Hayden got lots of hugs and kisses from Aunt Lisa!

On Sunday we went to Lisa's brother's house and had pizza and hung out.

Let me eat my cookie in piece!

Aunt Lisa had Hayden crackin up! We also got to skype with Clay, Mitch, Will, and Grace.

Starting to get tired....but gonna try to fight it.....

Can no longer fight it.... Hayden is going to miss her Aunt Lisa. Come back soon!

Happy Halloween!

Hay Hay had a great Halloween. On Friday, when I picked her up from daycare, she had on this Witch shirt, Witch hat, and Witch wand from Gail. Is Gail trying to tell me something about Hayden's terrible two's? :)

She loves that hat

On Sat. we dressed Hayden up (as Tigger) and went to Balboa Park for Halloween Family Fun Day. We went to the Railroad Museum where there let the kids paint their own train

Daddy helped Hay out

Now we are getting into it!

Look at that masterpiece. She loves it! She plays with it everyday and screams "Choo choo!"

The Spanish Center of Balboa park had a "decorate your own Halloween bag" area. Hayden had fun coloring with the marker

Hayden wearing my boots

The BIG DAY! We had Hay dressed as Tigger and Guido in his Spider costume. Hay got a big kick out of Guido

Hay liked her whiskers

Giving Guido a kiss

Running towards her first house! Notice the pumpkin basket in her hand. That was filled after 20 minutes and she never dropped it or let it go. She also never looked in it and had no idea there was candy in there :) She was so overwhelmed by the whole thing!

Getting ready to go up to a house. Hay liked to walk on the sidewalk, but got scared to go up to the houses so one of us would have to carry her. She wouldn't say "Trick or Treat", but instead stared blankly. She didn't know what to think of it. We lasted about 20 minutes

After trick or treating we went to Mandy and Michael's for pumpkin soup, lasagna, pumpkin muffins, and wine. As soon as we got there, Hayden started to loosen up and started saying Trick or Treat every time kids came to the door!

Ready to eat!

Feed me!

I think Hay really enjoyed her night!

Enjoying a sucker

Grandma Jo and Papap sent Hayden a Halloween card. Below is a video of her opening the card and reading it
