1st Haircut!

Yesterday, January 26th 2009, Jack had his first haircut! It is amazing how one simple thing can change his looks from a baby to a little boy. Of course Jack loved the hair stylist Heather and flirted with her the whole time. Heather made a special trip into the salon to give Jack his 1st cut. She doesn't normally work Monday evenings and we had the whole place to ourselves...he truly got the VIP treatment. He wasn't too sure about the water bottle squirting cold water on his head, but as soon as he discovered he could watch himself in the mirror everything was better. Amazingly he held rather still and didn't even mind the buzz of the clippers. We of course saved some of his blonde little curls for the baby book. Auntie Megan is finally happy that he doesn't have a mullet anymore; however, most people miss his blonde locks. Check out the before and after pictures!

Here we go!

Well...I set up this blog nearly a year ago I should probably attempt to use it. Where does time go? Between working nearly full time, a full time mother and wife time just slips away.

I recently joined a book club to study a book called Living Simply by Joanne Heim. There are nearly 17 moms in the group with all different ages of children. I have to laugh at the thought of joining another group to learn how to simplify my life, but I have really enjoyed the fellowship of other moms and making new friends.

I will soon be the parent of a 1 year old little boy! I am finishing all the little details for his 30 birthday guests on Saturday. I will be sure to post messy birthday cake pictures!
