Summer Hair

So this post is going to be out of order since I STILL haven't posted Christmas and 1st Birthday photos ( I know, I know) but we have been going back and forth on what to do with Christians hair and we finally decided that little dude needed a haircut.  It was laying on his collar and in his eyes.  He already falls into everything...who knows maybe its because he can see!  :) 

I got some tips from Emily(our hair guru) and decided that maybe I could do it myself without tramatizing him.  He did pretty good.  I was nervous the whole time.  We took breaks, dad fed him candy throughout, and he jammed to Bob Marley.  Which meant he was bobbing his head the whole time...which was SCARY...but it was better than him trying to climb off the counter.  

Here he was right before:  (just washed, no product...isn't that ridiculous that I can actually say my one year old wears "product" in his hair?! haha)

And AFTER!!!

How'd I do??

Birthday presents come early!

Today this birthday present from Mimi and Papa in Oklahoma came early!  Since it was too big to wrap, we let the little guy try it out early. 

He loves it! He keeps leaning his head back and saying, "ahh."  Like he is so comfortable now after that year of sitting on the floor :)

Here he is:

Random Sampling

Hello all! It has been a long time and we have been busy busy, but since Miss Gibson has requested I stop making excuses and put some pictures up, here you go :) This is just a random sampling of some from Christmas.  I will get the rest of the pics up soon.  I still owe you all 10 and 11 month pictures too! Can you believe Christian is going to be a year old in a few short weeks! We are having a monkey party for our "Little Monkey" and we can't wait to celebrate.  It has been a great first year.

And now the pictures.  Our little guy sure is photogenic wouldn't you say?

 Christian wants cords for Christmas

 Mouth full of tiny teeth

 He loves to clap now, it is so cute

 So proper with his hands clasped

 This is his reaction, I just told him, "NO NO do not hit the tv!" seriously, he just laughs
