We went to Cousin TJ's birthday party today ... he turned 15! ... and decided to have Grandma cut Michael's hair. (since TJ was more interested in hanging out in his room with friends instead of hanging out with us) Yes, I'm a cheap mom! I decided that as long as we took pictures and saved a bit of his hair, it would be as good as paying the $15 (or whatever it costs!) to get it done "professionally". He did a very good job of staying still so Grandma could cut ... it didn't hurt that Grandpa was making silly noises and faces while he took the pictures.
Funny story for the day ... I was in the kitchen and Tony was working on his computer. Michael was quietly playing, which should have clued us in. We both noticed at the same time that he was standing on what we call his "snack table" .. it's really just a small square coffee table we use for him to put his toys on and put his cheerios on. He had a huge smile on his face as if to say "look at me! I'm king of the table!" I so badly wanted to laugh and take a picture, but realized that would only encourage him to continue climbing up there. So he got punished and we kept our eyes on him until he decided to become obsessed with a toy... which didn't take long since his attention span is very short! But, I guess the climbing has begun. I'm sure he'll be climbing on the table many more times in the future ... I just hope he doesn't break his neck before he learns that it's not okay to get on the table! Notice the blue empty box he's standing on to help him climb!
Okay, so I included this picture just because it's cute. But I'm not biased! My mom took the picture because she has been desperately trying to get a good picture of his face so she can blow it up into an 8X10 for her picture wall.

A haircut already!?! lol! Zack was 3 when he got his first haircut, it went down to the middle of his back but because he had baby curls it sprung up and appeared much shorter! Ahhh I miss those days! Isaac had to have his haircut because he and Naissa took the scissors to his hair!!
So is the last picture here of Michael's first haircut? I think your mom did a pretty darn good job of getting a picture of a one year old with a clean face, sitting still, looking at the camera and smiling! That's a lot for a little kid! lol!
