Hayden's 1st Birthday!

Hayden turned 1 on January 24th. He is such a sweet little guy and we love him so much!

Here is his cake. It's a football if you can't tell. I know it's not quite as good as Kari's Care Bear cake, but I didn't think Hayden would mind too much.

Hayden would not dig into his cake until he had a fork. He is such a big boy and so independent. He doesn't like us to do anything for him.

Here is the aftermath of his cake eating. He did have a bit of help from his dad spreading it around.

Here are the two birthday boys. Hayden was born on his Grandpa Kunz's birthday. Dave was nice enough to share his birthday celebration with Hayden. He also shares a birthday with my cousin, Jen.

Here are many of Hayden's presents. Thank you all for coming and for those of you who still shared in the celebration but couldn't be there.

Hayden's birthday was on Saturday, but he had his party on Sunday. He did open presents from us, Grandma & Grandpa Holt, and the Robb's on Saturday. Kari was a big help!

With all the birthday stuff going on, I forgot about my soccer game that evening. Jen called me at game time and I put together the gear that I could borrowing much from Ken and Heidi (we were at their house at the time and it was much closer to the field than mine). I even used diapers as shin guards. As I was pulling them from my tube socks after the game, the other team called me a redneck. Can you believe it?



Here is a funny video of Hayden and his daddy. It was funny at the time, but since then Hayden has learned a bad habit. He now thinks it's funny to hit.
