Hayden had kind of a rough night last night. There is not much sweeter than seeing this when I came in to check on them! Sweet Daddy!
PS…if you missed my earlier post about our little vacuum chaser, click here.
We have a vacuum chaser in our house! Hayden never really seemed upset when the vacuum was on. But, now…he is obsessed with it when it is on!
He loves to chase it around and lung at it, grab the cord, push it, etc. He has made it really hard to vacuum these days! I am so afraid we will run over his little fingers, toes, etc.
It is quite hilarious to watch though! Here is a short video of our little vacuum chaser! I am not real sure why it shows those lines at the beginning. Reminds me of a tube TV when we only had 4 channels. Ok, don’t laugh. I know some of you remember times before TV’s at all. :-)

Yes, my hubby is vacuuming! What a sweetheart!
Do you think he was trying to tell me something today? We were out in the garage and Hayden headed straight for the golf cart! It has been out of commission for several weeks and we have been having golf cart withdrawals! We finally were able to get it fixed on Monday and we were able to go for a little ride today! Hayden no longer likes to just sit back and ride. He likes to DRIVE!
Today was prom day for my beautiful niece Robin. Prom day meaning it takes you ALL day to get ready for the big night! :-)
She went this morning to get her hair done by her cousin Stacy.
After she got back home, it was time for me to do her make-up.
The before and after…
Just the two of us. Do you think we look alike?
Now to get dressed…
Robin and her friend Kaitlyn. They spent the day together getting ready.
Hayden’s granddaddy did a lot of babysitting while we did make-up! I think they both kind of liked it!
Then we were off to Robin’s friend’s house where we were meeting the rest of the group Robin was going with. I believe there were 16 in all. 5 girls and 3 guys went at “singles” I guess you would say.
This is how they were traveling…
A few group shots…
Ready to go! They were going to eat at Shumardii’s Steakhouse in Greenville and then heading to prom at The Castle in Rockwall.
I think Hayden had had about all the picture takin’ fun he could handle for one day!
Robin is such a beautiful girl both inside and out! I love her so much and I am so proud of the young lady she has become! I hope she has a GREAT time tonight!
Hayden has started growling. He really likes it when you growl back at him. He will growl forever especially if you keep growling! This is a great game when we are bored in the car! Ha ha! Here is a little video of our precious growler in action! (Make sure you have your volume up!) I so wish I knew what he was talking about the end of the video!

I thought I would post a little video of Hayden playing with his “toys” in the kitchen while I got dinner ready to cook. You also get to see him do his “one legged crawl” and hear him do some “talking”. He is such a mess! If you haven’t ever met Hayden, this will give you a small taste of his big personality! I have another video for tomorrow to show Hayden’s new “growling” noises he likes to make.

Last week I told you that our garden needed some TLC. My “want to” was lacking until this weekend. :-) Jeff went between the rows with the little electric tiller. It worked pretty good. I worked on getting the grass out of the rows and I was SORE from hoeing (don’t laugh) and pulling grass! So, here is the before…
Pretty sad looking. You can’t tell the grass and weeds from the plants! So, we worked on it off and off all weekend. We had this precious little helper that wouldn’t keep his hat on! I even tried his swimming hat that ties under his chin and that didn’t work either!
Finally Sunday night, it looked a little more like a garden!
Going from left to right…
Peppers, Corn, Corn, Tomatoes and Okra, Cantaloupe, Squash, Cucumbers
Our peppers are looking pretty good.
Corn is looking ok.
Tomatoes are looking good. Jeff put our cages up and some black cloth and mulch to try to limit the amount of weeds coming up around them.
Okra is looking ok. Cantaloupe…I wish it was better! I think we only have two plants that have popped out. We are thinking about planting a few more. Squash and cucumbers are starting to look pretty good.
We can’t forget about our strawberries…
Can’t wait to get some fresh veggies! Hopefully I haven’t bored you to tears!
