I have been putting together a Father's Day post for Kyle and I kind of got jealous that all of his important pictures of Father's Day through out the years were going to be in one location. So, I decided to publish my mommy pictures too. But I'll hide them a few posts before Kyle's, so there probably won't be many people heading back to my older posts to see them. But if you happen by this post, I hope you enjoy some of my very favorite celebrations and special "Mommy's/Hayden's first moments" together. He has been a miracle and such a sweet blessing in my life. I am grateful for him every single day!
The very first moment that I saw and held Hayden, just minutes after he was born. It was love at first sight- April 2007!
First time I got to feed my little man. Hayden was two days old!
First family picture, getting ready to leave the hospital.
First day in our hotel room spending quality time with my little sweet angel!
First day home as a family. Hayden was 7 days old!
Special Mother's Day kisses for mommy... he really just liked to suck on my nose- May 2007!
Hayden pulled an all-nighter right before my first Mother's Day. Diet Coke was a must! ha ha
A walk to celebrate being the mommy to this amazing little guy. I couldn't be happier!
Mother's Day- May 2007. Beautiful, sweet, amazing little angel. I am truly blessed.
I got to celebrate Mother's Day with Hayden during his "1st birthday party family celebration"! He IS my favorite mommy celebration!
Mother's Day- May 2008... Matching stripes and everything, lol!
The adoption was finalized in June 2008. He was 13 months old... FINALLY!
Celebrating the finalization of our little man being in our family (legally). You've been a member of our family since the moment we prayed for you and you blessed us with your presence. We love you Hayden!
We became a forever family in August 2008... it was such an amazing day and Hayden did pretty well during the ceremony, considering he had the 24 hour flu. Poor guy!
Happy to be with cousin Ashy after the ceremony. I adore their sweet little faces in this picture.
Kyle blessed Hayden at Nana and Papa's house. We were surrounded by our loving family and dear friends. We could all feel such a tender spirit and we got to feel it all week long because of our beautiful ceremony beforehand. We love you Hayden!
Making Hayden's 2nd birthday cake. I celebrated my Mother's Day during Hayden's birthday celebration again- May 2009! My favorite way to celebrate. :)
My special little birthday boy. 2 years old and always knows how to keep me smiling!

He gave me the best gift ever and took a two and a half hour nap with me on Mother's Day.
Mother's Day dinner at Spaghetti Factory... I was NOT cooking for myself...YUM!
Then we ended it off with a quick visit to the park a crossed the street. I love that little man of mine and he always me makes me happy just being himself!
A couple of days before Mother's Day 2012, Hayden graduated from preschool. I am a proud momma of a "BIG 5 year old- almost to be Kindergartener"... YAHOO!
Hayden and Kyle bought me a massage for my present. Here's Hayden giving me a very special "Hayden massage" for Mother's Day... best present ever!
Mother's Day- May 2012. The best gift I was ever given was to become a mommy to my amazing little man. Truly the most amazing gift I have ever received. I treasure him every single moment.
KEEP MOVING FORWARD!
I love you as BIG as the sky Hayden. Thank you for making me such a proud and happy mommy!
Mommy
