Yes, it's official - Hayden is ONE!
Whew...this year has flown by! How quickly Hayden went from sleeping in mommy's arms, to walking and babbling. The last 12 months were full of so many changes and adjustments, but all worth it.

| First taste of pizza - Gimmie more! |
After the pizza, Hayden was confused as to why everyone was wearing silly hats on their heads! We all sang Happy Birthday to him as he blew out his candle. When it came time to smash the cake, Hayden wanted nothing to do with it. He stared at the cake in wonder and touched the very tip of it. Finally, mommy put a little icing on his hands and face, which really frustrated him -- he hates to be dirty. At the end, Hayden decided it was better to feed mommy and daddy the cake rather than eating it himself.
After cake came the presents! Although he was sooooo sleepy, he made it through opening all of his gifts. His favorite gift by far --- the Radio Flyer tricycle that Great Grandma and Grandpa bought for him. Why was it his favorite ------ because of the super loud (and annoying) horn that he continued to push!
The party was a success and in the end, the little man slept for over an hour. It was a day full of family and fun!
Lastly - on Hayden's actual birthday (Sunday, October 16, 2011), Mommy and Daddy took him to the park to swing and explore the playground.
Daddy also set up a giant activity gym in the house for Hayden to play around in. Although he didn't let us put a birthday hat on him during his party, Mommy was bound and determined to get at least one picture with the cute little hat on his head.......

With his first birthday behind him, he's off to new adventures as he grows.
On to the toddler years.....
