Hayden's First Halloween

2008-10-31T20:00:00.000-07:00

Hayden's first costume was a rodent. Yes a squirrel. I, of course, was a squirrel hunter. In case you are wondering on the choice of costume, one of Hayden's first nicknames, given by his Gran, was Mr. Squirrels. Gran nicknamed him this because he was so squirrelly when he was a newborn. So I could not resist dressing him up as a little furry squirrel. Aimee says she is picking the costume next year.

Hey anyone seen my nuts? I could use a snack.

Ahh, back in my natural environment.

Rub a dub dub, Hayden's in the tub

2008-10-31T19:41:00.001-07:00

This is the first time Hayden sat in his new bath seat

Bath time is alway fun with a rubber ducky.

Especially one that is named Trooper Duck, thanks Alex

Who let the dogs out, I know but he is so dog gone cute...

Hayden in the Pumpkin Patch

2008-10-24T11:35:00.000-07:00

Well we started off on the wrong foot for Halloween. There is a huge feild of these organge things and without warning from his parents, we plop Hayden right in the middle of them. Not a good plan parents.

We even tryed to put a pumpkin in his lap, saying look, it is just a pumpkin. He is saying "they are surrounding me!"

The following day we gave Hayden a little time to get aquainted with his new surroundings. He seem to have forgotten about the prior day and that he was being attacked by the orange mob.

Oh, they are nice and round.

I like this one mom.

How does this thing work? The door seems stuck.

Sitting up on my own

2008-10-24T11:26:00.001-07:00

This is Hayden sitting up on his own. Yes he did just wake up from a nap so I guess that he dreamed of sitting up.

Once he figured it out he was glad not to be slumped over anymore.

Hey, look at me! I am sitting up! Now what?

V-O-L-S, Go Vols Go

2008-10-01T13:00:00.000-07:00

Hayden was ready for his first Vols experience. He had all the gear and was ready for the big game with UCLA. He woke up and knew he was ready!

After a good lunch, Hayden was still ready to go. Bring on the Bruins.

Holy Cow, Crompton what are you doing? I could hold on to the ball better than that!

Mom, maybe I need to be a Vandy fan.

Boys and their toys

2008-10-01T12:51:00.000-07:00

The exersaucer, what a great invention. Although it had about 70 little screws that went into it assembling the thing, it was worth it. Hayden loves this thing. It bounces, plays music and then some. Our only regret is not putting him in it sooner.

Waking up is hard to do

2008-10-01T12:46:00.000-07:00

Just like his mama, Hayden is a slow riser. Once he get's going he is all smiles. Especially when he gets a wake up call from Aimee.

The Protectors

2008-10-01T12:38:00.000-07:00

The first of September Gran, Pops, Cary, Bryan and Mattie came to visit. Maddie loves to get up and lick Hayden. She tried to take a sneek kiss one time and Hayden, who's legs are alway kicking, gave Mattie a boot to the backside. She now keeps her distance and only come around when he is sleeping.

This is Cary's bear that Bryan gave her before he left for Iraq. As you can see Gran thought it would be cute to have a picture with it and Hayden thought it was pretty cuddely as well.

Green Beans (yuck)

2008-08-21T20:03:00.001-07:00

Hayden thinks that there is a good treat waiting for him like a bottle or rice cereal but no it is first baby food experience- Green Beans!

Hayden is on to his Mom, somthing is going down but still he does not know what lurks in the bowl.

It is the horrid Green Bean goo. His body actually shuddered a little as if he got the chills.

and it is official, Hayden does not like Green Beans.. he gagged a little after this photo.

Haydens first roll over

Growing in 3 Months

2008-08-21T19:10:00.000-07:00

Hayden in his Bumbo seat. Turns out this little seat keeps him looking at his toys with a different view (rather that on his back). He is reall y reaching out these days and this seat help him get there.

After a long day of eating and and playing "Mr. Right" finally gets a nap with Dad. I think that he is going for the Al Bundy look...

More 4th of July Pictures

2008-07-29T11:21:00.001-07:00

These picture are from out 4th trip but I am just now posting. Aimee got Hayden some cool shades for the beach. All the ladies loved em. Hayden's piggies going in the water for the first time.
Taking a little snoozie after a long day at the beach and sun.

Hayden on the 4th

2008-07-06T18:23:00.000-07:00

The whole family came down to Pawley's for the 4th. We have a couple of traditions one of which is the Ed Stoudt Golf Classic. This year it was not contest. Scott was the clear winner by 8 strokes. Although Hayden wanted me to bring home the big prize, it just was not the year. Congrats to Scott and Matt and I will be back next year hopefully with out so many water shots!

Hayden had a great time on the forth. There were outfits all day long that provided great pictures and many laughs. We left him with Gran and Pops so that all of us could go to a Dave concert. We took a limo to Charleston, which Scott arranged and gifted the tickets. Thanks to Scott for that and the opportunity to spend time will family and friends. Trippin Billies...

Relaxing day at the pool

2008-06-23T11:54:00.000-07:00

Aimee, Hayden and I went to the pool yesterday. Hayden was good for about an hour. As some of you can see, he is getting bigger and Aimee wanted to show it.

Bathtime for Hayden

2008-06-23T10:36:00.000-07:00

Well, bath time is always a fun event at the Eubank's. Hayden has the funniest faces during bath time. I guess that he is just cold but check these out.

Hayden and his new friends

2008-06-23T10:29:00.000-07:00

Once he got the hang of this seat he could not stop trying to grab Elie, Ali and Zoe. You can tell from the pictures that he gets really serious about his new friends. When we take them away, he always smiles cause his mommy is there.

Hayden is Growing

2008-06-23T10:18:00.000-07:00

Taken a couple weeks ago where he is starting to reach out for things. The camera is one of them and he still can't figure out what this flashing thing is...

Hayden in his bouncy seat trying to reach his little animals name Elie (the elephant), Ali (the aligator) and Zoe (the zebra)

Hayden's Beach Adventure

2008-06-03T07:00:00.000-07:00

Hayden was shipped out at the end of April to go to "Tennesea" in Pawley's Island. The trip was a long one, from what I hear, I was not included in this trip. I think a normal trip takes 10 hours but it took Aimee and her mom a little over 14 hours.

Once they got there it was a great sucess. Hayden loves the ocean. As soon as he went outside with Gran, he would fall asleep in minutes. Gran even made him a noseeum proof crib so he could enjoy the ocean anytime.

When I got there. He had grown so much. He even fit in his new swim trunks ready for the beach. He was not sure what to think about his new get up, but he made it to the beach for few minutes.

While we were at the beach, Aunt Tiffiany and Uncle Kyle came to visit. Tiff could not wait to get her hands on Hayden. She of course could not let go of Connor.

Tiffany and Kyle also invited their friends Reagan, Scott and their beautiful daughter Avery.

Connor and Hayden got aquainted early and whala, now they are buddies wearing matching outfits thanks to aunt Tiffany....

Here are a couple of pictures from some visits from Pops and Uncle John

Oh No Hayden's First Bath

2008-05-29T18:44:00.000-07:00

Well, this was Hayden's first bath. This seems like it was a long time ago, but since I am playing a little catch up, I thought that it was worth sharing. Lets just say that it did not go well. He now enjoys them, especially when Gran sprinkles water on him.

Hayden's First Days

2008-05-29T04:51:00.001-07:00

Well after two months I am finally posting pictures. I am sorry that it took so long Aimee and I have been on the go since Hayden Dobson Eubank was born on March 28th 2008. He came into the world at 9:15am weighing 7lbs 12oz and 20 1/2 in long. He came out with a full head of hair. All that he wanted to do was stick out his tongue. He did this for several minutes. Aimee did great and could not wait to hold him.

We had him at Baptist Hospital. The rooms were so small we opted to get the "Titan's Football" suite. Nothing but the best for our first born.

After we left the Hospital. We made a little stop to my Moms house. She and Doc were determined to not give him back to us. :)

The Baby Furniture

2008-03-18T14:30:00.001-07:00

I know that it has been since Christmas since my last post but hey look at the furniture below. Both pieces are made from solid walnut with a oil fininsh. I finally got it done and now all we need is a newborn to fill it out. Aimee is ready and the actual due date is this Thursday March 20th. The furniture took me a little longer that expected but I managed to get it all done before the little guy arrived. I think that I get extra points for that. We are looking forward for the coming months and I promise to do better in keeping people posted as we progress.

This is where it started

and walla, a crib...

and poof and changing table and dresser.

The First Post

2007-12-12T11:38:00.000-08:00

This is the official post for the Eubank's. Our hope is to keep our friends and family "posted" on what is happening in our lives. Aimee and I have finished, for the most part, our renovation which lasted about a year. We are very happy with the way it turned out and are looking forward to our new comer that is due at the end of March. We are having a boy which is good because the "ole" Eubank name will pass onto the next generation. We have picked out a name, to be released at a later date. We can say that his name will not be John as we have 5 in our immediate family!
