It's hard to believe that one year ago today our lives changed forever. This year has just flown by and we have loved every minute of it. Hayden has been such a blessing and joy to us. He continues to amaze us everyday with how smart he is, how sweet he is and it is so fun to watch him grow and learn.
We celebrated his birthday on Saturday with a Monkey Party! We had a bunch of little monkeys over and it was a great time!
I made banana cupcakes with chocolate frosting, we had fruit, veggies, spinach and artichoke dip and mini cheeseburgers. I made Monkey Munch for the favors.
He loved his chocolate cupcake! He hadn't really had any sugar before and now I think he's hooked!
Hayden's buddy Josiah, who's birthday is just five days after Hayden's. Michelle and I have been friends since highschool!
Aunt Ashley and the birthday boy!
The presents and the cupcakes were ok, but nothing was as intriguing as the bucket of ice! Hayden woudn't stay out of it, he even fell over the edge once!
He got this big chunk out and held it and sucked on it for so long! He is so silly!
He dances to music all the time, and he will turn on the toys that play music just to dance. He also makes this face when you get out the camera and say, "Smile"! 
He loves his new table and chairs!
Hayden has discovered that he can open the cabinet in his dresser. I walked into his room the other day and he had opened it and was taking out one neatly folded blanket at a time. He would shut the door, open it and take out another one. He thought he was pretty clever and smiled and laughed as mommy watched. These pictures don't do it justice, but it was so funny!
