Things to Do in Denver When You're Alive

We had a great trip to Denver this past weekend. It was a family reunion, football fest, and food extravaganza all rolled in one. The Buffs and Broncos both won (amazingly) and lots of good times were had. It was great to see everyone but special thanks to Grandpa Bob for the amazing BBQ on Saturday (sponsored by the Forbidden Pig, have some next time you're in Laramie), Uncle Tim for the tailgate grub, and Grandpa Dave for the football, dinner, and just plain making the entire weekend happen.

In the pictures you will see Hayden pre-haircut, and post haircut as the pics span a few weeks. Looking back, her hair was craziness.

In other news, Hayden now says about 15 words (or semi words) including wa-wa (referring to water, not the Philadelphia convenience store), ball, more (of course, she's a Wolach after all), yeah, and no. It's getting nice because now we are starting to be able to understand what she wants which makes both our lives easier.

Also, due to the many ear infections she has had, she had tubes put in her ears on Friday. While it is technically surgery, it is very quick and easy. The ear tubes look like this and they let fluid drain out preventing infection. They fall out on their own after a year or so. They cleaned out a lot of gunk behind her ear drum and now the ear infections will be very rare and she'll be able to hear much better which will aide the growth of her vocabulary.

After some initial groggyness and whininess, we noticed an immediate difference as she was much happier and back to her old Hayden self.

Enjoy the pictures and videos!
