The Tooth and Nothing But the Tooth

Another big week here at the west household. We have passed two big milestones: 1. Hayden cut his very first tooth and 2. He is now officially crawling (heaven help us now!)

Tuesday brought the first official sighting of the tooth and poor Hayden has been paying for it ever since (as his parents have also!) Thank goodness for cold washcloths (his chew toy of choice).

The other milestone, official crawling - he's been doing a modified crawl for some time now, but has finally figured out the lateral movements of arms and legs... and he can boogie when there is something he wants and something WE don't want him to have, oh for example a dirty, nasty dog ball!

Or to grab a wonderful handful of dog fur - Run Nemo! Run!

We had another very busy, fun filled weekend. Friday night was our friend Pam's birthday celebration. Her hubby Dean arranged a wonderful dinner at the Riata in beautiful downtown Ft. Worth. Great food, and great friends! We had a wonderful time! Little Hayden made the trip with us and was quite the trooper all night - in fact, we couldn't have gotten him to go to sleep there had we tried. He was too busy flirting with any and everyone who would lock eyes with him.

Saturday evening we met our friends Pam and Danny for a fun dinner at Joe's - we haven't been there in ages! Hayden was again quite the little trooper. He was absolutely infatuated with the decor and lights. He was having a great time! Plus every time Pam would talk, Hayden would look at her, stick out his tongue and give her a huge raspberry - I guess he really is my son!

Then Sunday we met Grammy Eason and Great Grandma Rita for a late lunch. We had a good time and Hayden was really enjoying dancing around the restaurant with Grammy - it was so cute, where is the camera when you need one???

We also want to shout out happy birthday to Grandpa Dude and Great Papa Scally - both celebrated birthdays on Sunday!
