Hayden and I finally made it back home on wednesday. I was not looking forward to the nine and a half hour travel time we had to get from Tampa back to Boise, but Hayden did great. The flights were not full so I was able to take the car seat on the plane, and Hayden spent most of his time in it and just fell asleep there whenever t was time for a nap. He also loved seeing all the new people and smiled at whoever cared to look his way (which of course was everybody :-)
On thursday morning I went straight to putting Hayden's jumperoo together and he loved it the first time he got in it. His feet barely reach the floor so he will only stay in it for so long before he either gets bored or uncomfortable (not sure which). I think he is happy to have all of his stuff back and he has been sleeping great in his own crib!
Thursday night we gave him some cereal for the first time. I think more ended up on his face and bib than in his mouth but it was fun. He is starting to get the hang of opening his mouth when the spoon comes his way and then swallowing but we still have a lot of work to do.
One of our last days in Tampa we went to Animal Kingdom at Disney World with family. Hayden got to meet Goofy, but unfortunately he pooped out in line to meet Mickey :-( I will include some pics from that trip as well.
We are glad to be back in our own place although it is hard for me to adjust to havig such a quiet house, especially first thing in the morning when we wake up and there is no one here to greet us (okay, so everyone was really waiting to greet Hayden when he woke up!) My time back home was very special and I will always be thankful for the time I got to spend with everyone there.

It's about time you posted some pics, I was going through withdrawl! Hayden is such a cutie, it's fun to see him eating from a spoon now! I miss you guys already, but it was so special having you here for so long. I'm glad, though, that you're home and settled and together as a family.
Love you lots!!!!!!!!
