First Haircut

John Robert had his first haircut yesterday. As difficult as it was to say goodbye to those curls, it was time.


He was really good during the haircut, too. The stylist wet his hair down, brushed out the crumbs, sweet potato, and whatever else was in his hair, and went to work. JR sat still and didn't complain at all until the very end when he got tired of sitting there.


Now he looks like a proper young gentleman.

Great Grandparents and Grandparents, What Fun!!

Walkin Tall.... and Fast

13 months and counting

He is walking,  talking his own language and hiding my keys in various places.   Needless to say Jack is a force to be reckoned with.   

I know that as you grow up your parents say just wait until you have kids you'll understand.    Now I do.   I cant get over how fast he is growing.   It seems like just yesterday  we were saying, covered in spit up mind you,  wow  look I think he smiled!!... no  no   he just farted.   Maybe next time.  Now we are eagerly waiting his first word.    

He is eating with his own utensils... kind of, walking, getting in to everything, working on drinking from a cup,  making funnies,  driving a bus,  loving the cats and dogs, throwing a ball, fake crying to get attention and really loving life.   

Just last week he met his great grand parents!!   John Robert also experienced what is Dollywood.    He is looking forward to seeing his Aunts, Uncles and cousin over Thanksgiving!!
