Our Little Sleeper


Hayden has been quite the snoozer. He has been sleeping 12+ hours at night then taking 2 naps that last 2-3 hours. He likes to push his head all the way against the edge and stick his feet through the rails. He has been sleeping so sound that I have to wake him in the morning to go to his grandparents. He has really increased his signing and words even more in the last week. We had a great time yesterday all being home on a snow/ice day! Such a short week this week with only 3 days of work. Hayden has been having a few more tantrums and definitely knows the meaning of the word "No". Everyday I seem to love him more and more which I didn't think was possible. Our life is filled with such sweet little treasures and hopefully sometime soon we'll be able to grow our family by one more. We are ready for another. Actually have been ready for about 5 months now. I was packing up baby things for storage and sorting the things I wanted to send to consignment and found all these little baby outfits and can't remember Hayden being so small yet I know he wore these outfits. Everyone warned that the time would go so fast and as aware of that as I was it still has gone too fast. My once non mobile, non talking, non opinionated baby is now a walking, talking, very opinionated toddler. Each stage brings such new wonders that I am ready to experience this again with another child. I am ready to see if the next one will love to snuggle or want his or her alone time. Will he or she like fruit and not cottage cheese. Will he or she give neat little kisses that are pecks on the lips or will it be open mouthed slobbery baby kisses. Will he or she be a night owl or a morning bird. Will he or she laugh easily or make you perform to get a grin. For now we will enjoy learning about Hayden and enjoy this short time that he will be the only one needing our attention... where all eyes are on him and its all about Hayden, Hayden and more Hayden.
