Who you calling Baby....

At 10 1/2 months old, it's apparent that Hayden is no longer a baby. He's starting to do so many "Big Boy" things that have us wondering where the time went - it just flew by us! Although he still cries like a baby at times, Hayden is enjoying his newly found mobility. Some new milestones include:

• Thursday, August 4: Crawling - I guess you could call it a crawl. It's more like a very handicapped version of a crawl, but we'll take it. The little man finally figured out that he could do it and has now mastered it. He's moving around the living room so quickly now. It's a matter of time until he figures out the correct version.

First Crawl (August 4th)

The Perfected Crawl (A few days later)



• Wednesday, August 10: Walking (without a hand from mommy & daddy) - Not to get too excited here, but Hayden did take 2 steps on his own without mommy and daddy holding his hands. Pretty exciting! He's also able to walk pretty well with us holding only one hand. Pretty soon, he's going to be getting into so many things -- time to babyproof (QUICKLY!).

First Steps at the park - Without our help...

He's still the biggest cuddle bunny in the mornings, and still loves getting his way during the day. At daycare, he's in love with his teacher Mrs. Jenn, and won't let her leave his side. If it's not Hayden's way, it better be the highway because this kid will let you know - screaming, crying, etc. Daddy figured out that these are true tantrums - Hayden looks out of the corner of his eye to ensure that someone can hear him before he goes into a full blown tantrum - no real tears, just faking. Super sneaky:)-

Lastly - he's learned the word "uh oh" - When he throws his binky (purposely) in the car, it's always followed by an "uh oh" and an ornery grin. He also says the same word when he toots. At least he's giving us a heads up of the smell that's coming our way:)
