Well Tom seemed to really enjoy his birthday and was happy to get so many birthday messages! We have been having a great time in Cleveland. Last weekend we drove to Hocking Hills State Park which is about 45 minutes outside of Columbus (a 4 hour drive from our house). We went with 5 other couples and stayed in these two bedroom cabins (tow couples per cabin). On Saturday we went hiking and saw the most beautiful frozen waterfalls! They were gorgeous and the sun was shining making them sparkle. It was relatively warm and the day was perfect. We had a wonderful time. On Valentine's day we went out to Red Robin, with Hayden. Not exactly fun or romantic since Hayden just ran around the restuarant but atleast I didn't have to cook! Yesterday for Tom's birthday we had sugar pancakes in the morning, he went to the driving range in the afternoon and then we went to the CAvs game, you can't ask for much more than that!!!
Hayden is really starting to "mature" (if there is such a thing for a two year old.) He is grasping the idea of consequences and gaining more control over his behavior. It's really nice. He still has a lot of energy and just likes to run around but now we do circle time in the mornings and he's really enjoying learning his colors, numbers, shapes, etc. He gets really excited about things so it's been a lot of fun.
I've been doing a lot of scrapbooking lately. I went to a four week class at Lexi's house, it was great. I'm actually almost done scrapbooking Hayden's first year of life so I only have one more to go... hopefully I can catch up!!! I'm reading the 4th Harry Potter, it's great. Adina thanks for the book ideas, I'm always looking for something new. Also, my birthday is April 29th.
It's fun to hear from everyone! Keep us posted. Take care!
