a joyous adventure: Celebrating 2!!!
http://ajoyousadventure.blogspot.com/2012/05/celebrating-2.html
Monday, May 21, 2012. Happy 2nd Birthday, Hayden! March 23rd is such a special day in my life. I get to celebrate the birth of my amazingly wonderful son, who has changed my life in more ways than I could have possibly imagined. So much happened in two years. I can't wait to see what this year will bring! We celebrated this birthday at home with a small group of family and friends. We chose to decorate with a "Garbage Truck" theme. Hayden has loved garbage trucks since he first saw one! WA, United States.

a joyous adventure: Spring is here!
http://ajoyousadventure.blogspot.com/2012/05/spring-is-here.html
Tuesday, May 22, 2012. Let the outdoor adventures begin! The beautiful pacific northwest weather could not be more welcome in our lives. It is finally sunny and warm enough to play outside. We even got to wear shorts and slippers this weekend! That is news right there. From our house, it's a good block down and two blocks up then back again (or around to complete the loop). Sometimes it's too much for his little legs and luckily I can still carry him for a ways before getting too tired myself. Dort Party...

a joyous adventure: February 2011

Tuesday, February 8, 2011. January has come and gone already. Hayden is now in his 10th month! People tell me all the time that he looks like he's one already because of all his hair and teeth. We've had an eventful month so far and are looking forward to the rest of the month. Here is a brief update. Hayden's frustrated face :). Crawling is a breeze now. He is so fast now and enjoys crawling under the table and chairs. Hayden is so strong and pulls himself up to standing on everything! My mom was able t...

a joyous adventure: September 2010

Thursday, September 23, 2010. It's been almost 3 months since we've moved into our new house. We simply love everything about it. That "new house" smell still greets you when you walk through the door, the new furniture looks great, and we get to do whatever we want to it! No more renting for this family! Here are a few photos of the house and surrounding area. New couch upstairs (the rest of the room is still empty). Wyatt Park- a short walk from our house! Lake Stevens and the Cascade mountains. Haha, ...

a joyous adventure: November 2011

Thursday, November 3, 2011. Hayden and Mom go to Virginia. On August 30th, Hayden and I left to visit family in Virginia. It was a wonderful trip! The only thing that would have made it better is if Dan was able to come. We arrived just after Hurricane Irene passed through leaving my parents and much of the surrounding area without power. My family was without power for 4 days and luckily within hours of our arrival to the house it was restored! We didn't waste anytime in getting out and doing stuff!

Monday, March 28, 2011. Happy 1st Birthday to my sweet baby boy! Hayden Laraway is 1 year old! No matter how many times I say it it's hard to believe. He has grown into such a handsome, active, smart, loving, curious little boy and I am thankful for each and everyday we get to spend together! The real celebration was planned on Saturday, March 26th. Friends and family were in attendance for Hayden's 1st Birthday Owl themed party! I am so happy with how everything turned out! The menu consisted of:. We ha...

Friday, August 24, 2012. Here is a list of unique words and funny things Hayden said. I will add to it continuously because it's a good way to get these things written down in one place! Doesn't pronounce S when preceding a consonant, only when it precedes a vowel. Snort and snuff = 'nort and 'nuff. Or-port (airport), but he does say airplane properly :). Still speaks in the 3rd person. Whacks Aunty says, "Hayden need to go to time out". See that globe. It's all glob-ey.". Looking out the window, "Mom!

Monday, August 9, 2010. On August 1st, Hayden had his first meal of rice cereal! He did a great job eating off of a spoon and has since moved on to eating oatmeal and carrots. I think I like it! Thursday, August 12th, Hayden hit another major milestone! Here are a few photos of playtime on his activity mat. The rest are still sitting on the floor and will be hung someday. Our yard is coming along nicely and looks to be the greenest on the block! Hopefully, our bushes look like this :). WA, United States.
