December

I can't believe Hayden is already 8 months old!!!  She is the happiest, sweetest little girl!  She is sitting up and sooo close to crawling.  She gets up on her hands and knees and rocks back and forth.  She has mastered the art of the army crawl so that she can get to what she wants.  She is eating lots of solid foods....she loves applesauce and bananas!  She talks all day long and loves to sing.  She smiles and laughs at everyone...no one is a stranger to her.  All of the people at Target and the grocery store now know her by name.  Here is a recap of our month.......

We have been getting together with some of my friends for a playdate.  It is so much fun to have some adult conversation and watch all of the kids play together.  So far, the girls really outnumber the boys 4 to 1!  

Isaac, Mia, Hayden, Isabel, and Nora

Kate (with Nora), Ashley (with Mia), Me & H, Tasha (with Isabel and Isaac)


Grayson graduated (YAY!!!) from Texas State, so we drove down for the celebration.  We got to see Dad, my aunt and uncle, and my grandparents.  We also got to see my cousins Ryan and Nicki who just had TRIPETS!!  


4 Generations!!

We spent Christmas day over at my mom's house with Zack, Haley and the girls.  It was so much fun.  We love hanging out with them...there is never a dull moment!!

Annie and Hayden

Everyone opening presents--it was a mess!!  Little Kyler still had her cast on--it was a serious weapon!!

Kamdyn showed Hayden how to open presents

The morning after Christmas we got up at 5:00am and drove down to the ranch to celebrate with Chris' family.  The whole family was there and we had so much fun!!

Johnnie, Angie, Olivia and King came down a few days later and stayed through New Years.  We always have the best time with them!!  It is so relaxing and fun to talk, ride around, watch the boys hunt, and watch the girls play.
