First Swim of the Year

This morning we started our day with Homemade Waffles.  YUM!  Our waffles have not ever tasted near as good (light and crispy) as the first time we made them.  We decided to add an extra egg white and turn up the heat on our waffle maker today and they were much better!  Glad we figured that out!  It’s the little things!  :-)

Then, we headed for “Malmart” (Walmart) in search of a Puddle Jumper for Hayden along with some sunscreen.  I was so excited to actually find the Puddle Jumper.  After using it today, I would definitely recommend it to anyone with a toddler!  Although Hayden’s face doesn’t really show it in this first picture (he was ready to swim), he never fussed with it on.  He seemed very comfortable.

After our Walmart trip, we headed over to Matt (Jeff’s brother) and Sherry’s house for a cookout, homemade ice cream and cobbler, and some fun in the sun!

He was a little unsure at first.  It was a little cold, but it didn’t take long until he was loving it!

Hayden did not have a nap all day and fell asleep on our way home about 6:00 PM.  Jeff brought him in with the intention of waking him up.

Well, Hayden was just not wanting to wake up.  Poor baby played HARD today!  He woke up while barely keeping his eyes open for a second to put on pj’s and then headed to bed.   I guess we will see what time he decides to wake up.  Hopefully it isn’t the middle of the night!

We enjoyed our family time today!  I hope you had a great day too!

I need to look for one of those puddle jumpers. Hope he sleeps through the night! What a fun day!

Looks like lots of fun!! Does that puddle jumper thing hold him up ? I haven't bought one because I didn't know if it would really hold her up! She goes to swim lessons in a couple of weeks!

Looks like a great day. Bless his heart he was out!

I think I may need to invest in one of those puddle jumpers too!
