Well apparently Hayden found a new use for his Train Table drawers, a chair! The little goof ball decided to sit and play! He was really tired! But never TOO tired to play Choo Choo Train. He loves his train table, and boy are we glad. Tonight we drove past Barnes and Noble and of course he still wanted to go and play with their Train table, its Thomas! I found a super smokin' deal on some Thomas trains the day after Christmas at Toys r us. I ended up paying almost nothing for them! I was excited because he didn't have any Thomas, oh no! But he will get them at his party next weekend. Here is a pic of one of them, its a special birthday Thomas, its way cute! You can put these little stickers on it to spell his name.

Tonight was very exciting for Jason and I we bought new furniture, yeah! Our coach is gross, way gross. Anyone who has seen it knows it. But if anyone wants it, its yours! We wanted something that we wouldn't feel bad replacing in a few years. I have very high standards for stuff!! hehe! And i know exactly what i wanted. Not Leather, Not Microfiber, Not reclining or vibrating or massaging! I wanted a neutral color, but not too blah. I like comfy, not firm(MOM!!) Jason really wanted a chair and half.(Didn't really want the Ottoman??) and we found it! We've looked at least a hundred times for something we could agree on, its impossible, but tonight we did it!!! Go us! We got a pretty good deal too! It comes with some okay tables, i don't love them but whatever! I am so excited. They will be here for the party, actually we get them on Saturday. If Grandpa Mike will let us use his truck =)! Please!!! Here's a picture of the sofa and part of the chair! Tables too i think.

Well not much was said at Hayden's Two year appointment. He's healthy, growing boy. He is however borderline heavy. But the Dr wasn't too concerned because he has a monster of a head. Dr said the majority of his weight is in his noggin! He's a smart boy, he needs the head space. Also my son has HUGE tonsils. Dr Billman told us this before, but just wanted to confirm it, maybe an issue later down the road. And Doc said he may be no fun at sleepovers, cuz of his snoring. Breath right strips! He got his flu shot and they drew blood. Which went easy as pie, he didn't even blink when they were drawing his blood, he just watched and went "Oh Red". But all is well, he's a smart cute two year old. He even showed the nurse a great two year old tantrum. Well everyone have a great weekend! Have lots of fun.

The Smiths!!!

Lots more pics!

Hayden called the front desk at Craguns, oops!




Bunch of pics from last week!




My Little Fishy!

Look at the TV! How Cool huh!

Mom-me

I have a new name. Mom-me. It's not just Mommy, its Mom-me. The other day he started adding the y sound to the end of words, this one stuck. Its Mom-me this, Mom-me that! Silly Boy.
I hope everyone had a great New Year! We did. Hayden went to bed at 9:30, and then we played Pictionary with Sarah and Casey until 2:30! Mommy was TIRED the next day. We spent the day just relaxing! Hayden is helping me 5with thi3s 3+entry. As you can see! . Silly Boy! .......................................5redvg n ,bk(more from Hayden!)
Okay Daddy is here to entertain him! Tomorrow is Hayden's Two year appt. with Dr Billman. He is a great doctor! Hayden is very comfortable with him. The worst part is always weighing and measuring him. No shots thank goodness! I'll post with anything interesting! I really don't have much to talk to him about. We of course think he is SO smart, but i think its just us!!! Hayden misses his Jess. He wants to play with her. After this weekend we'll see Jess every weekend this month, if they are able to make his Birthday Party. (Jan 13 from 4-7! Mark your calendars) Have a great week!

Very Cute Pics!

Our Beautiful Jessica


Here Hayden you look very thirsty!


Papa, Buy this for me. I'm VERY cute!

Jess, Are you there? I don't have very good reception

in here. Hello? I can't hear you. Oh wait, now i can, what

were you saying, something about Elmo Live in Concert?

Lots of Fun!

Wow! What a great couple of days we have had. Busy. Brainerd was great! The drive home was even good. I was worried, but Hayden slept and then just played with Elmo. Christmas with the Sandmon's was very very nice. Jessica was a blast. How she gets so cute I don't know. I just saw her! and she still is cuter than the last time. Those two were so much fun today. They played and played. The best was right when we wanted to leave. They were jumping and copying each other. Being total Hams. Then Jessica was pushing Hayden on her little bike. Everyone was laughing so hard at them. Crazy goons! Hayden was so pooped out he fell right asleep! He was sleeping in his new hat from the Schouvillers! The night was perfect, we even got some of Grandma's Hot Fudge! Its the best!
We woke up today, (not so early for Nana!) Then we woke Emily up and went Hot Tubbing! Thats all Hayden wanted. Until he saw the game corner. He was playing pool with the cue ball and all was good until he pitched it across the pool area! Oops. We didn't play with it after that. We hit the road early then i was going to but that was good! We stopped and grabbed a Latte for Mommy and a milk for Hayden, we shared a yummy biscotti too! And off we went! He was so excited when we got home, he saw his choo choo's and thats all he wanted to do! Well we had an awesome day! Hope yours was great too! I'll post lots of pictures tomorrow! Happy New Year

My skater boy

Auntie Em took this picture! I love it!!! We had lots of fun today! We did lots. This is Hayden at the ice skating rink. I didn't get skates on him but he did go on the ice with his boots. I had him all bundled up for the first time in everything! He did good. Brandon went on some Kitty Kats that you can rent, boy did someone get jealous. He told Papa "My Turn" about a thousand times and looked over where they were sitting. Broke our heart! Papa did let him sit on them! I have pictures that i will upload soon! We went swimming too! and to town. We squeezed a little Elmo in too so Mom could take a little rest! It was sad that our fav restaurant in town was closed. Its called the Barn. If you are ever in Brainerd go there! They have all homemade pies, great soup, and Maid Rite sandwiches. Yum yum! Even Jason liked them. Well were are off tomorrow to Christmas with the Sandmon's tomorrow. Wish us a good trip home, its just the two of us! Happy New Year too!
