Alot has been going on lately and I have no clue where to start...

Hayden is growing slowly but surely. I'm noticing his 18 months clothes are slowly shrinking. Its bittersweet since he's growing up into a little boy. He's no longer my little baby boy I once could hold with one arm without a struggle. Now I have to beg for hugs and kisses. His vocabulary is slowly growing as well. The other night he said "thank you" when I gave him his milky after his bath. He still calls everything "Googer" which translates to Sugar, our massive 70lb yellow lab. Those two are inseperable! Oh geez.. as I'm writing this entry, Hayden brings me his jar of vaseline. He's got it in his hair and under his fingernails. GROSS!!!! Hayden has absolutely ZERO fear. He will climb up on his changing table and get whatever he wants. Now I'm having to start keeping his stuff in his closet so he can't get to it. He's also learned how to pull off the safety wall outlet covers that protect kids from sticking things in them. Well he pulls them off with no problem. We're slowly trying to transition him to a cup and straw. He still prefers his sippy cup and I'm okay with that for now.

I've been busy with several doctors appointments for bloodwork and checkups. I'm also preparing for my second Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in Austin. This year I've formed my own team and we're racing as team "Mean Girls Against Cancer" and have our own shirts made and everything. The race is November 7th, 2010 so you still have time to register and join our team. (www.komenaustin.org) If you'd like to donate to Susan G. Komen, visit Our team page!

I have another doctors appointment with my reproductive endocrinologist to get my blood results back. I'm hoping and praying we get some answers. The worst part is not knowing and the waiting. I'm hopeful its treatable so Jon and I can start trying for baby #2 soon. I miss being pregnant. I was going through all my pregnancy pictures when I was pregnant with Hayden and started crying. I miss feeling his hiccups, his kicks, his tumbles, all of it! I miss the anticipation of the delivery and the anxiousness of seeing what he's going to look like. I miss it ALL!!! I know in time, God will bless us with a healthy baby girl or baby boy. My husband jokes, maybe we will have twins. My skin crawls at the thought of twins. A dear friend of mine is pregnant with twins and she's got a 20.5 month old boy so she's got alot on her plate. I couldn't even wrap my head around the though of twins with a toddler running around. :) Luckily for her, her son is well behaved. Ha!

I'm eager and excited to take Hayden trick or treating for the very first time this coming Sunday. Hayden is going to be a NASCAR driver. He's going to be soooo freaking cute! Be on the lookout for pictures! :)

I will post results from my drs appt Friday afternoon when we get home. We have to go register for our dba for our contracting business.

X's & O's!
