We’ve had several more “firsts” lately. Barrett got his first real bruise on his head. Poor baby boy. We aren’t even sure where it came from.
This picture was the night it happened. I didn’t get a picture the next day – it looked worse!
He rode his first carnival ride. We went to the fair last year to walk around and get a corndog but he was teeny tiny so it didn’t really count. I was hoping he would be able to ride a couple of rides, but he could only ride the carousel. The first time he wasn’t all about it. He barely cracked a smile and he did lots of looking around trying to figure out what was going on.
I think Barrett looks like me (when I was his age) in this picture. 🙂
I rode with him the second time and he was a little more into it. He was much more into the corndog he had afterwards. He loved it.
He got his first fat lip also… 🙁
And when we went to his 1 year check-up he got his first sucker.
and he LOVED it!! His doctor is in Liberal, and I didn’t want to just leave him in the back seat with a sucker to smear all over everything while I drove home. So we hung out in the parking lot while he enjoyed it. Then, he chunked it between the seat and the door and it got stuck. Turd.
He got his first “bike”(thanks Hoot and Honey)
It goes from this “rocking bike” to a tricycle to a bike that can be pushed – so cool!
AND he colored his mommy a picture for the first time.This baby boy melts my heart.
