One VERY long blog post!!!!

Sorry there had been no postings for the ENTIRE month of September! We had a computer virus and then went to Ohio for 2.5 weeks. We had a great time (as you will see from all of the pictures) So this is ONE, very, long blog post in the hopes to get you all caught up in the life of our little monkey......boy has she grown :)
This is my all-time favorite picture to show you how immature Hayden's parents are :)

Beach time before we went to Ohio. Our daycare provider, Gail, gave Hayden this blow up bath tub.....perfect for the beach!

Hayden was great on the flight to Ohio. It was her first time on an airplane and she didn't cry at all! She had started crawling about 3 days before we flew out.....

Hayden got to meet her cousins Allie and Carli

Grandma Kuhlman loves to spoil Hayden

We got to celebrate Carli's 5th birthday

We had a baptism party for Hayden at Craig and Jill's house. The whole Seiple clan came down for it (It was the weekend of the OSU and USC game)

Virus!!!!

Hey Baby Monkey Fans!!! My home computer got a virus from Miley Cyrus :) I was trying to download some of her songs. So I have been unable to post this week's blog....yet I have the pictures and a video downloaded (and they are really cute and funny) and hopefully Kevin will get it fixed tonight.

We leave for Ohio this Thursday for 2.5 weeks and are very excited! I will take tons of pictures and will post on the blog when I return.

So look for an update this Thursday and then check again the beginning October. Sorry for the delay!

Love,
Jill

Hayden hangin with all her Aunties!!!

Hayden loves getting smooches from Auntie Lauren
Auntie Loli gave Hayden a Nemo fish for the tub. She loves it!

Hayden (sitting on Auntie Mandy's lap) managed to pull all the petals off those flowers :)

Hayden loves her Auntie Loli!

Friday night, we went up to see Andrea and Joe's new place. Hayden wore a T-shirt that Auntie Wendi got her. You read correctly......"I might suck, but you bite" Ha Ha Ha

On Sunday we went to the beach. Sara was a great babysitter playing with Hayden. They both had fun in her tent

6 month photos!

This week Hayden started taking a "Big Girl" bath. She loves splashing her hand in the water, eating her letters and numbers, and squeezing her monkey doll
A couple of weeks ago, Mandy, Loli, and I went on a photo shoot around town for Hayden's 6 month pictures. Mandy took 680 pictures!! There were so many that were cute, but here are some of my top pics.......

Little beach attitude

Funny face :)

Hayden went to the Zoo!!!

On Saturday, Lauren and Lucas took Hayden and I to the San Diego Zoo. It was Hayden's first time and we had a blast! We went at night and the animals were REALLY Active! We had soo much fun.
Of course we had to see the guerrillas :)

Hayden liked her monkeys...

The Hippo was soo cool

When the sun went down the cats went crazy! The snow leopards were really awesome. Here we are in front of the hyenas

Hayden loves Lucas!

This was Hayden's outfit on Sunday where she is wearing a T-Shirt that says "My First Indian's T-Shirt." Thanks Connie Krouse! Oh, and she is sporting her crocs that Courtney got her too....totally stylin!

On Sunday we decided to give Hayden her first haircut. She was sporting 2 rat tails in the back that needed chopped

Bye Bye rat tails!

I think Hayden's bangs need cut, what do you think?....

Look how long her hair has gotten?

She is stylin now!

I think she likes her new haircut
