First Haircut

Davis had his first haricut last month. Apparently if your child has hair, especially curly hair they are a girl, despite what boyish clothing they may be wearing. After being called a girl on multiple occasions and some bad hair days (see pics below) we decided it was time. I wasn't sure if I was ready or not. He has such sweet little curls. Faith assured me she would just trim around his ears and even up the rest. Now, I am so glad we had it cut, it's thicker and curlier than before. He sat in the chair all by himself. I had packed a bag full of his favorite untouchables (nail clippers, medicine bottles, makeup tubes, toothbrush, etc). Between that and crackers, we only had to break out the passy once. I think the real fun came from the entourage that went with us. Our appointment had to be later so Patrick could come from work, then Mimi and Nami (both grandmothers) couldn't miss it either. I couldn't resist including some pics that inspired our recent cut.

Birthday Boy

Davis turned one in November! I can't believe it has been a year. It feels too soon, but with each month comes more milestones and new tricks that are so enjoyable to watch. We had a Razorback Football Tailgate for him, complete with a football shaped cupcake cake. We were so blessed to spend this day with friends and family, all dressed in red and white of course! Megan and Jackson flew in just for the birthday weekend. Davis had a blast. He loved being sung to, but the fun ended there. He apparently did not inherit his mommy's sweet tooth. Who wouldn't love Ambrosia's buttercream frosting? His daddy that's who... like father, like son.

Embracing Technology

Well, we've done it... we are finally starting a blog! It took a lot of convincing, but Patrick finally agreed to the idea. Living with Mr. Anti-technology, I'm surprised we have a computer at all. I have so enjoyed reading your blogs and seeing precious pictures of your littles ones, so here is my first attempt at sharing our life with you. We apparently have no pictures of the three of us and until our little one is able to use a camara, no pictures of the two of us. I will have to work on that. However, I cannot make an intial post without showing off our sweet little blessing... Davis. He just turned a year old and we love him to pieces!
