Happy New Year
After a Wonderful Christmas we celebrate the New Year. Hayden rang in 2009 with Grammy and Peepaw so that Jeff and I could go out to eat.
Jeff watched the ball drop and played video games while I was already in bed with my eyes closed (although not asleep) well before the midnight hour. Hayden took his first solo steps days before he turned 14 months. He now is getting braver and walking further and more frequently. Our baby has officailly become a toddler!! Such a bittersweet moment. Hayden enjoyed Christmas and unwrapped his presents and actually showed more interest in the gifts themselves than to the pretty wrapping paper and cardboard boxes that they came in. He loved his two gifts from Santa .... a toothbrush and a doggie ball pit. Santa had the ball pit
blown up and sitting in the family room. Hayden crawled down the hall and into the room. Upon seeing this new toy he made happy noises and craweled as fast as he could through the doggies mouth and into the pit of balls.
He loves his new toy. This year was really special since although he still doesn't understand Christmas he was old enough to enjoy spendng time with his family and opening gifts. I think he will miss having the tree up with all the lights but it is time to clear away all the decorations until next year
