Hays Middlebrook






In celebration of birthday week, I’m going to post pictures of each of the three from the park and a little something about each one. I thought it would be every six months but Harper was the only one that got two special posts this year.





Happy go lucky, sweet, loving, stubborn . . . Hays Middlebrook
You can tell what kind of morning or afternoon Hays is going to have by the way he wakes up. Most days he’s just bursting with it’s playtime from the moment his feet hit the floor but every once in a while he’ll growl to let you know something just isn’t right. Hays is going from the time he wakes up in the morning and is really starting to fight his afternoon nap. I’ve found that it sometimes helps for him to not nap once a week or shorten it up so he’ll be tired for the next day.
Hays usually has a toy that he’ll play with or master for a week and then he’s ready to find something new. We’ve had to tell him to leave his toy in a certain spot so it will be easy for him to locate when he wakes up. Diego and Baby Jaguar went missing a couple days ago and trust me he’ll make you look for it until it’s found! Hays and mommy are playmates most days and if it’s not me he usually plays by himself. He’ll now fight for snuggle time with his mommy and could stay in my arms for minutes instead of seconds…oh how I love my little man.



Here are a few of Hay’s favorite things:

Toy: You can always find him with something in his hands- most of the time it’s a car but for the last couple of days he’s been carrying around three cupcakes.
Book: He loves any book that he can show off his counting skills. I’m not sure what number he’s up to but it’s in the thirties and then his mind starts wondering.
Food: Hays loves all FRUIT! If He only ate fruit he would be perfectly happy. He still enjoys an occasional fish stick and chicken nugget but prefers his peanut butter. Hays can definitely put the food down compared to his sisters.
Drink: Water and Hot Milk (when he turns the corner into the living room in the morning, it better be waiting for him!)
Outside activity: Playing with Cayden’s bike, he truly loves this bike and will actually fight his sisters in order to ride it. He can pedal pretty well on Cayden’s bike and is starting to get the hang of pedaling his Harley Hot wheel. He’s also loving to slide into the purple pool- Harper and Hays have the cutest game going were they race each other over and over. Hays definitely likes water the most out of the three.
Song: Puff the Magic Dragon; Jay Jay on the computer
Car seat position: Hays sits behind me most of the time so he can look out the window. I love looking back to see his cute grin and his head keeping the beat to the music. Hays always knows the last CD that was played in the car because those are his first words out of his mouth- Wheels on the bus, Peace like a river, Diego, Bunny Song
TV Show: Calliou and Dora
Color: Orange
Nicknames: Hazer, Bubba, little man
