Pumpkin Patch at Irvine Park ~2009

We headed to Irvine Park a couple times this year, it is such a great park and the pumpkin patch is a lot of fun. Here's a few shots of fun!!!


Such a serious picture, she wouldn't smile ~

Hayden & Friends

School picture day! She looked so cute, her hair wasn't too out of control.....The actual school pic is really cute, hair was a little out of control ~


Eating yogurt without a spoon, she had to get every last bit out of the container!


Hanging out, playing with her new Gabba finger puppets ~


All of her friends, she had them all set up on the chair (including the blue pom pom) ~

Summer Fun w/ Ian & Ella ~ 2009

It had been about a month since they had seen each other, they were really excited and celebrated with a group hug!


Yes, that's mommy stuffed in the back seat of the ride. Hayden wouldn't do it without me....We laughed our heads off the entire time!


Hayden and Ian riding shoulders with their daddy's!


Digging sand at Doheny!!

The Aquarium in Long Beach!!!

Time just flies....

Time is zooming past us and before I knew it, it had been over 6 weeks since I last posted some pics of Hayden.

She turned two on June 4th. Mellow celebration since we know that from now on they are probably going to be big. She's getting taller and heavier, healthy as can be!
She also started "school" on July 6th ~ first week and a half was a major adjustment. We think she's gotten the hang of the new routine and people. She woke up today, "Saturday", and asked to go to school....that is a great sign!

Meeting the family for beach day at Doheny tomorrow. I'll try and remember to take some pictures to post!

Here's a couple funny ones:


First time in a "bouncy house"! She loved it!


Wearing Auntie's goggles, we were getting ready to go for a swim ~

Hayden's Turning TWO!!

Thanks to Auntie for these great pictures! We had a really fun time running around the park to get the shots!!

Mother's Day with lil' miss Hayden ~

Mother's Day was great this year! Just Hayden and I, hanging out! We went to the park, ate some meals and most importantly - took a nap! Since I was just coming off of my 10 day trip to China I needed some extra sleep.....!

She loves her sunglasses, pirates booty and balloons from Trader Joes!
