Hayden Says...

Hayden: Mom, MOM, mom.... Me turn the dryer

Mom: OK, (I pick him up, move to the side of the dryer, hold him over the trash can so he can turn on the dryer)

Hayden: MOM, (serious voice) don't throw me in the trash...K.

Mom: (laugh) Don't worry I won't throw you in the trash.

Tickle Treat

This year was AWESOME... after a quick refresher course on the proper way to trick or treat, it was no holds bar... except that some where in translation trick or treat became tickle treat, and that was alright by us... so super cute

Of course we ran into little B so we HAD to join forces and finish the rest of the hood with him, it's not like we don't see him 4 days a week.

Getting candy from Michele & Koop

And of course getting candy from Nolan at our house was fun too... just ask Hayden

Hayden thought it was pretty neat to ring our doorbell because Nolan would give him candy every time. It only took 4 times for Nolan to be totally irritated with Hayden.
