10 On Tuesday

1.  Hadden has discovered that standing on his toy box could be way more fun then playing with  what's inside!!

2.  I am having a hard time as I do at this time every year deciding what to wear in the mornings.  Cold morning and then warm afternoons????

3.  We went to the Empowered To Connect Conference this past weekend and had a great time.  I would recommend it if they are coming to your area or just getting info from their website. 

4.  I per-ordered Kisses from Katie a couple weeks ago and can't wait to get it in! She has such an inspiring story.  You can read her blog here: http://kissesfromkatie.blogspot.com/

 

5.  When I send my sweet husband to the store to get a couple things this is usually what his list looks like:

6.  This might just be me but I feel like everywhere I look there are like 5 pregnant ladies or new babies.  

7.  I get so excited about this time of year though I love the summer but fall and winter have to be my favorites.  I love all the baking, Christmas music, family time, boots, blankets, marshmallow roasting, hot chocolate, and all the fall/winter candles.

8.  I really want to grow my hair out but a long with that takes more drying time so I just can't decide.

9.  We had one of those days Sunday where Hadden fell asleep in the car on our way home from church and then decided that was his nap for the day.  Wow that makes for a long evening. 

10.  We moved from 44 back up to 43 on our agency's unofficial list!  Thankful for some movement forward.

Hadden's 2nd Birthday Party

We celebrated Hadden's 2nd birthday a couple weeks ago and yes I know I am just now having time to sit down and write a post about it.  I know I have said it before but I will say it again that little guy keeps me busy.  I had a harder time with him turning 2 than I did when he turned 1 I think it was because with 1 I was just glad we all made it there alive.  Going from 1 to 2 we had such a good time I wasn't ready for it to end and enter into what people call the "terrible twos".  Anyway we had a great time celebrating his party complete with all Toy Story decorations!! We had mostly family and invited a couple of his closest friends.  To say he had a good time would be an understatement.  He was differently more excited this year then last year which made it a lot more fun.  Here are some pictures from the big day:

Getting the hang of opening presents!

Just a few of the things I love about you:

I love all the hugs you give me just because.  

I love how you say momma for no reason but give me a big smile when I say "yes".  

I love your sweet laugh and that smile just melts my heat. 

I love the way you are so excited to say your prayers.

I love the way you love to dance and you have the best moves.

I love how much you love your daddy and get so excited when he comes home. 

You are such a sweet and caring boy.  Momma loves you so much and can't wait to see how much you grow and change this year! Hadden I am so proud to call you my son and am so excited to see how God uses all that energy you have.
