Hayden is 2 months old!

I just can't believe how fast time is flying, this is my excuse for not posting sooner. Hayden is growing like a weed, at his 2 month checkup he weighed in at 13.0 lbs and 23 inches long. As he is growing we are seeing more and more of his personality shine through. He is such a fun happy little guy most of the time. He's starting to reach out and swat at his toys on the play mat more and more. I can often hear him gurgling and cooing across the room, which makes me smile and walk over to join in every time. We were able to spend the 4th together as a family with some friends of ours. I was excited to see that Hayden seemed to enjoy the fireworks, or maybe it was just being outdoors.


Hayden is learning to hold his head up.

HAYDEN'S FIRST 4TH OF JULY!


Preston was gone for the last few weeks of June on a training exercise and got home just in time for the 4th. Hayden and Trigger were very happy to have their playmate home. We all missed having him around the house. We spent the 4th with some family friends and I was excited to see that Hayden seemed to enjoy the fireworks, or maybe it was just being outdoors. Having Preston gone was a sad reminder of what little time we have left together as a family before he deploys again this fall and we're taking advantage of it every chance we get.

I can't believe how big he is getting! They grow so fast, where does the time go! I can't believe Preston has to leave again, how long will he be gone this time?

Rhianne....he is so adorable! I can't wait to meet the little guy, when does Preston deploy and for how long??? Is this his second deployment?
I know what you mean when you say "We're taking advantage of it every chance we get." It is so good that he was home to be with you when you had Hayden and that he will know daddy!
