More Visitors

Colin's sister Audrey and her little boy Drew have been visiting since last Wednesday. We have been having a lot of fun with them here. Drew and Hayden have fun playing together and Hayden is learning that you can get places you want to go by watching Drew crawl around. Audrey's husband Andy just got here last night and they will be staying until Monday. Hopefully I will get more pictures from the rest of the trip, but for now here is what we have.
Getting ready to swim!
We put Drew's arm around Hayden, but she took it to the next level!!
Cute little Cousins!

One Lucky Gal

Guess who's going to Wicked?? Me!!!!! I am so excited!! I accidentally found out last week that Colin was planning a surprise trip for me to go for Mothers Day. He had been trying to sneak around and get my Mom in on it through email and I was snooping around and saw it. I felt really bad and I was just going to pretend like I didn't see anything so I wouldn't ruin the surprise, but he caught me lying when he asked me if I checked his email.
Anyway I just think I have the sweetest most thoughtful husband ever!!! Plus to top it off he is going to drive out to LA to babysit Hayden while we go to the show; he doesn't think I would be able to leave her at home for so long!
We are going over memorial day weekend with my Mom, Dad, sister and her husband. I can't wait!!!!

P.S. I know what you are all thinking and yes he knows that I look at his email and a lot of the time he asks me to check it!



I couldn't figure out how to post a real 'Wicked' picture, but I did color this myself.

Our Big Girl

Hayden is officially 6 months old and done with another set of vaccines for six months!! We are very excited!! At her appointment we learned that she weighs 18.5 pounds which is in the 90th percentile and her height is above the 95th percentile which I guess is off the charts. She is growing so fast!
She is getting two top teethe which are really cute. Right now only one has totally come in so it looks kind of funny, but the other one will be in soon I'm sure. She is really starting to get a personality and is getting quite demanding. If we are not playing with her she will whine and cry and as soon as we look at her she will get a big smile on her face.
I just started teaching her how to dance; I am always amazed at how fast babies learn things. Within a couple of days she started moving her arms along to the music, I tried to get it on video but of course she wouldn't perform!
She is such a sweet baby and we are so lucky to have her!!!
My, how time flies!

Grandma's Visit

A couple of weekends ago my Mom and my Grandma came down to visit us. We had a great time with them. Saturday we went and walked around Old Town Scottsdale. It is a really pretty town with a lot of shops that consist mainly of jewelry, Native American art and Cactus. I think Colin was ready to go home after the first few minutes, but he was a good sport and walked around with us while we looked in each shop and while my Mom and Grandma stopped to look at every cactus we passed. :) After that we ate at Macaroni Grill and had a great lunch. That night my Mom and Grandma were nice enough to babysit while Colin and I went to the movie. We saw "21" and both really liked it. It was well worth the money, however I was little bitter because we spent half of Colin's salary on a drink and popcorn and the popcorn wasn't even hot!!! I was so mad, but I still managed to eat half the bag. :)

Here are the rest of our pictures from our trip to Payson.

Day Trip to Payson

Ok, so many of you already saw these pictures, but to make a long story short I took them off and am now re-posting them. I had quite a long post to go along with the pictures, but I really don't feel like typing it all again so I will just summarize. A little while ago we went decided to drive to Payson Arizona. We didn't really know what was up there, but we heard it was pretty so we thought we would check it out. When we got up there we asked around and found out about a hike to a Natural bridge. It was a really fun and pretty hike. Hayden loved every minute of it!! It was so nice to get away for the day!!

My computer wasn't working properly so I was only able to post a couple of pictures. I will try again later.

Googly Eyes

I stole another video from a friends blog. I think it is really funny and wanted to give you all a chance to see it; plus I haven't had anything exciting happen in my life for the past week so I was desperate for something to post.
