Pittler Peanut

This is the latest sonogram, taken on August 20th, of our baby girl (name witheld). She has already inherited her mother's gum chewing habit....you can see her blowing a bubble in the womb.

The Joy of a Boy

Today was Hayden's 18 month birthday and we can't believe he's already a year and a half old. We had a little celebration with brownies and a candle on top. He'll never know how happy he makes us, but at least we can try to show him.

"Aunt" Donna's Baby Shower

We are so excited for the arrival of baby Olivia Grace in mid October. Especially since she will have a playmate in baby girl Pittler (name witheld) this coming December. Mommy's friends Janell, Terri, and Jenica made the long trip down to southern Maryland to celebrate with Donna and her family and friends. It's the year of the girl!

Hayden at Storyville

For those of you wondering what Storyville is - it is an interactive play area full of toys and books that is at the Rosedale Library and is a free play zone sponsored by BCPL. Its a wonderful place for children to play house, pretend they are a fireman, shop and pay for groceries, put on a play, and various other acts of make-believe. It is just another wonderful gem that the Baltimore area has for children of all ages. Hayden loves it too!

Just making small talk....

Ok so I've been meaning to write some of Hayden's latest words because every time someone asks me what he is saying, I always forget some of the cuter ones, so here are some of his famous one liners (or one worders).

Yellow - Pronounced "Bel-woe"
Doggie - Pronounced "Di-geee"
Daddy - Pronounced "Da-deeeeeeee"
Mama or Mommy
Nana
Purple - "Pah-pell"
Flower - "Blau-er"
Blue - "Booooooo"
Pool - "Pooooooo"
Water - "Wa- Wa"
Thank You - "Bang Ewww"
Please - "Peas"
Uh - Oh (when he drops something)
Fire Truck - "Woooo Wooooo" (As in a a siren noise)
Humpty Dumpty - "Dumty Dumty"
Moon - "Moooooo"
Cow - "Mooooo"
Bowel - "Bowel" (Don't know...don't ask)
