Well, It's Here!!

Well, it is here- time to go back to school and get back into the routine of life. I have enjoyed this break more than any I can remember. I kept Hayden home the whole 2 weeks and enjoyed making so many memories with him. (I have shared some below.) Austin is always fun because he is so laid back. He enjoys pajama day or going full swing with house cleaning, errands, playing with friends, etc. I am so blessed to have great boys. I have also learned alot about blogging and how this works and am so excited to be able to share with you our life. I have a new happiness for my digital camera. Isn't technology great !!! (well, sometimes) I hope you enjoy our pictures and will share more of the fun we had later on.





On New Year's Eve my mom and I took Hayden to Chuck E. Cheese. This was his first experience and I wish I had had a video camera instead of a digital camera. He was so funny to watch. He couldn't decide what to do first, when to eat, when to play- he was sooo excited. Then when he earned tickets to win a prize- oh my, you should have seen his reaction. He said that this place was the best. He wanted to take Austin back the next day, but fortunately, it was New Year's Day and they were closed. We had so much fun and it was well worth the time spent away from home.





These are the prizes that Hayden won with his 46 tickets. Yes, it was junk and I don't think he even knows where they are now but you should have seen his face when he took the tickets to the counter and the lady told him where to pick a prize from. It was a priceless face!!



Hayden and I enjoyed spending the day together. He had so much fun and was very pleasant to be with. He even let me do some shopping afterwards. Is he not the cutest little guy? I think so.




My mom and Hayden had so much fun!! Thanks, Nana, for taking us and going with us.






This ride was closest to our table and thankfully he enjoyed it so that we could sit down for a minute or so.





He was so excited when Chuck E. Cheese came out. When I told him to stand by him to get a picture this was as close as he would get. I guess that is better than nothing :).










During Christmas my sister enjoyed making memories with her nephews. This is her last Christmas as a "non-parent" and her new attention will now go to her baby. However, she will always love these boys.
