September/October – Lively Livin

I’m really suckin’ it up at this blogging business lately – I’m aware!! 🙂
We are just too busy living our crazy, busy, fun-filled life for me to be posting all the time. That’s my story and I’m stickin’ to it! 🙂
There are so many “firsts”?in a baby/toddler’s life. I feel like every post should be titled something about “firsts.” Barrett got his first real haircut (I may or may not have trimmed around his ears a couple of times). Our sweet cousin Molly cut it at our family reunion and the wild man (who I was worried would be all over the place) slept right through it. Once again, he proved me wrong!! He seems to be extremely good at making me eat my words…

Barrett James is SO very full of energy! Before he was born my sister-in-laws told me I shouldn’t worry about finding out the gender of the baby – just ask if they can tell you the energy level to be prepared for. Apparently my husband was quite the ball of fire! Of course, having a boy usually makes things interesting … And we are proof of that!!
Cleaning Meme’s toilet with Pa’s paintbrush…

This move which is sometimes “so big,” sometimes “touchdown” and sometimes “ta-da!!”

And let’s don’t forget wearing his “sunglasses at night!”
Funny story… When I was little I had a pair of orange sunglasses that I had poked the lenses out of and wore EVERYWHERE… When he started liking to wear sunglasses so much I was secretly a little worried his momma was coming out in him!!

But then we are back to acting like dad… What a daredevil!
