Hayden had his first art project on Tuesday. I got several pieces of paper and taped them to his table in the playroom. I bought him some crayola TaDoodles crayons for toddlers and let him have at it. He seemed to like making streaks of color across the white paper. He colored away for about 15 minutes then my phone rang and I ran to get it in the other room. In the 20 seconds I was gone he managed to eat his blue crayon. Not all of it but did take a few good size chunks out of it. i came back in the room to find him spitting out blue specks onto his paper masterpiece. Kateri called to tell me her and Grandma were in town and they were going to stop by. We had a nice visit for about an hour although Hayden clung to me and buried his face in my shirt. He really is quiet the shy guy but does tend to warm up after about 15 minutes but not so much on this particular day. We enjoyed our visit and next time we'll have to make the trip to Grandma's house.

Less than Perfect Dinner
So I was trying to make something quick and easy for dinner one night this week and decided on soup and salad. You can't mess that up can you? Well you might not but I can.... I am not a great multi tasker and so as I am trying to fix Hayden's meal I forget to turn down the potato soup to medium and a few minutes later I hear the soup boiling over on the stove and burning. What a mess it created. Hayden didn't seem to like my culinary skills so this is what he was doing in the mean time......
He couldn't stand the sight of me making a mess of dinner so he was hiding himself in the cabinets. He would close the doors on himself as he hid inside the cabinet and then push open the door with a squeal. He is always keeping us entertained.
