My Baby Boy is Growing Up!

Please don't judge me, but we have turned Brooks' car seat around even though he doesn't turn one until next month! Trust me, it was time!! This is what I see when I turn around to look back. He looks SO BIG! His Sissy gave him her juice box and he was drinking it like a big boy. So I pulled over and snapped these pictures of him.

A couple of weekends ago we celebrated the marriage of some of our closest family friends' son, Keith Wilkinson. The wedding was beautiful and we had a wonderful time at the reception. I was able to get some cute pictures!

First Official Haircut!

Last week Brooks received two haircuts! The first attempt was at Honey's house in the tub. We trimmed the back of his hair and his bangs. But that made the rest of his hair look that much thicker and subsequently he looked like he was wearing a football helmet. So we needed to take him to a professional to get it tapered and evened out. So I took him to some random place next to the cleaners to get him all fixed up. We had an excellent experience! I gave Landyn the camera and she was in charge of pictures, which she did phenomenal! Brooks did not fuss at all while the lady was cutting his hair! She put some "styling products" in it and styled him all up! He was such a stud muffin!! I can't believe how much older it made him look!!

At home afterward.

You can't really see his hair because of the lighting, but he is striking a pose for you!

He was so calm while she worked on him! I was shocked!!

Before she thinned out the back. Look at how thick his hair looked! She said it looked like he had a hair piece on!!!!!

Don't Wine, 30 is Fine!!

Kim, Brian, Kathy, and Gordon gave me a present that came in a "little blue box"!! Landyn was even more excited than I was!!! She is a product of the village!! How many 4 year olds know what comes in a "little blue box"?????

Brooks was so good at dinner! Such a happy little boy!!

Love this picture!! Me and my beautiful children that I thank God for every single day! I could not ask for a better birthday present!!!!



I had a wonderful 30th birthday! We celebrated at Messina Hof which was amazing! If you have not been, I highly recommend it! The food was fabulous and we had an incredible wine tasting before hand. The afternoon/evening would have been perfect except for the fact that Patrick got a migraine and spend half of the time napping in the van. Bummer. So, we have no pictures of him! But that just gives me a good excuse to go back, because he missed out on the experience! :o)
