Hayden turned two! She had some friends over for a party and got lots of presents. This weekend we went hiking. We wore pants, but Hayden only needed a diaper.

We had our crawfish boil this weekend! The weather turned out nice...we moved it two weeks forward because of snow earlier this month. For a bunch of northerners these guys could eat a lot of crawfish. Usually we have a bit left over, but they ate all 60 pounds this time.

Sunday morning the Easter Bunny came. Hayden thought she saw him running away out of her window. Then she ate candy all day and randomly yelled, "Happy Easter!".

Hyna had a seizure the other day. She's been really aggressive towards the other dogs and not acting normal. We took her to the vet after the seizure and they sent us home with phenobarbital and valium. They didn't seem to help so we took her to the emergency vet the next day. They think she has epilepsy or a brain tumor. She'll go see a neurologist next week. She takes phenobarbital twice daily now that calms her down. The vet said it makes her "special"...I think she meant in a retarded way. She's not retarded though...just a little slow. Not much her normal self. After the seizure the right side of her face doesn't have much movement.
