{a couple of firsts}

After careful consideration, prayer, and a time of fasting (just kidding... kind of) we decided to chop Eli's golden locks... it all started at wal-mart: a lady referred to him as a girl. Ok, i thought, no biggie. It is wal-mart after all. but then lo and behold my little boy was once again referred to as a "she" This time in Lake Elsinore... however the validity of the above mentioned offenses was greatly called into question do to the locations they occurred. it was sort of a spontaneous decision (AKA james and i were bored) so we decided to give him a trim... one thing led to another... and... well... lets just say buggy has a buzz cut. i love it because it makes him look so grown up but at the same time i miss those frizzy curls...
here is his before and after...

Look at how long it was getting...

oh well... this too shall pass --> i mean, it will grow back...

Another first for the bugmeister is this sick accessory (yes my son has accessories...no this has nothing to do with the before mentioned girl incident)


His first watch!!
(a flame watch no less)


Stay tuned next week for an update about the biggest first of all... his birthday!!

that's so funny! Adam was jsut saying last weekend that he wants to buzz Bennett's hair and well... let's just say that it basically came down to the fact that he would have an easyer time buzzing my hair! I just couldn't do it! Congrats on being braver than I!

I can't wait to see the first birthday blog, I finally got mine up, I feel like it was almost as much work to blog about it as it was to throw the party! :) Happy Party-ing!

What a big boy! We just buzzed Brennen's head for the first time and it almost made me cry! He looked so much older. It looks so cute on Eli though, nice work!
