Mommas haircutting skills

To all of those friends wanting to experience some of Steph's long hidden hair cutting skills, you might want to wait a second. I still think he's a handsome boy, but his hair is only short in the front now. I don't know what you would call that look. An "oops" haircut? That was how Steph described it when she texted me at work.




It's OK son. It grows back fast.

Little hands

I love to see Quinn's little hands on my mom's piano. So .... I took pictures.

Family fun

Close encounters of the famous kind

Well, Quinn had his first celebrity sighting today. I'm not sure why this is such a big deal, stars are just people too. But it is interesting to see a perfect stranger and know exactly who they are. We were at the Mystic Aquarium and saw Nicolas Cage with his kids. I've always noticed his eyes in movies and thought maybe directors just play them up. But no, his eyes definitely stick out. That was actually what made me notice him. At first I just thought he was just another guy walking around holding a kid. But no, it was him. You could tell the staff at the aquarium were really excited, but they were really good. They gave him his space while whispering how nice he was.

OK, so pictures from the Aquarium. Sorry no Cage pictures. I thought it would be rude. Now I kind of regret it. Oh well, what can you do.

The second try

OK, so I got a little more ambitious with the hair cut this time. I was so nervous I would screw up his hair last time that I barely cut anything off. This time, I grabbed the clippers and went for it. It was really funny trying to keep up with him. Picture it. It was just he and I. I let him stand while I was trying to cut his hair and he kept going in circles trying to see what I was doing. Well, anyway. The end result is as follows.

Sorry honey

Well, Dan has been in Virgina since Sunday. I told him I would try to update the blog every other day for him. Oops ... sorry love. These are the only other pictures I've taken since the cabinet pictures.

Also, I entered Quinn in the Reggis and Kelly beautiful baby contest. I sent in one of his Halloween pictures. Although, I didn't realize until after I did it that the picture was supposed to have been taken with in the past month. So probably we'll be removed from the contest. But if we don't, go vote for Quinn on Feb. 11th. The first place prize is a 125K college fund. Everyone could use one of those. OK, well, I'll keep you posted.

Getting into everything and loving it

Quinn's new favorite past time is to rearrange my cabinets ...... from inside them.

Fun fun fun

Quinn has finally figured out how to blow air. I was blowing bubbles for him one day and he started blowing back. So, I let him try. Results .........

Happy new years everyone

We hope this year brings you all the best. Dan mentioned that I might be posting photos from Christmas. Well, each Christmas gathering went like this. Did you grab the camera? No, did you? No. Hmm, ok lets remember it next time. So, in other words no Christmas photos. Can you believe it. But we do have these.

I just think he looks too cute in overalls.

"What?" The attitude is already showing. Uh oh.

Too cute.

Mommy and me.

Apparently tangerines are very exciting.

I mean really exciting.

There are those overalls again.

Yum, markers.
