Firsts and Other Stuff

We've had some fun firsts come up in our family! As you might guess, a lot of them were accomplished by Hayden!

"First Kiss" The day Ken has been waiting for since we first started talking about having a family has finally come! Taysum attended his fist soccer camp! Ken ran the camp and is coaching Taysum's team this year. It's a short season, but Ken is thrilled to have Taysum playing soccer! Ken had to go early, so when we took Taysum, he jumped out of the van saying, "Daddy! It's me! I'm here!" It was pretty cute how excited he was!

Hayden had his first taste of rice cereal and did really well with it!

The biggest first we were excited about was Hayden rolling over!! He's been working on it for a while now, but he finally made it last Sunday! He had quite the audience as well! We were at my parents' house and he was on the floor trying; and he did it!! It was so fun to see him! His arm kind of got stuck and he didn't quite know what to do with it! Most kids, it seems, they kind of flop over on accident and it kind of stattles them and they don't try it again for a while. Once he figured it out, Hayden kept doing it over and over; after about the third time, he had no problem with his arm either! He likes to roll over, but he doesn't like being on his tummy, much! He's our little CHAMP!!

I guess this next part qualifies as the "other stuff." Ken took Taysum on a Fathers and Sons outing...well...sort of... He took two boys with him whose dad couldn't make it; however, they never found the spot! The location was changed a few times and Ken never found them. They still had a good time, though! They found their own place and had a little camp of their own. It was cold and rainy, but it seems they still had a pretty good time!
