Julian's first hair cut

Julian got his first haircut yesterday and it just hit me. I was not ready for it and officially no longer have a baby baby. I have a toddler who looks like he is 2!!! I realized it tonight when I put him in his crib for bed. How much I wasn't emotionally ready for this step. I know it will grow back, but I miss his crazy baby hair. :( 

It does make me want to sing the fuzzy wuzzy was a bear song though. :) Both boys have a buzz cut going on now. It's cute that they match.

Were you ready for you child's/ children's first haircuts?

Back to School

Summer is officially over. I say that with a heavy heart. Eddie starts back to school, teaching, tomorrow. I enjoyed getting to have lazy afternoons with both my boys, but it will be good for us to get back into a productive mode. 

  I can not wait for Fall weather and October to get here!! MommyConKC is going to be a blast! I am meeting a few mommy friends for the first time there and hopefully making some new ones! Will you be attending with your little ones? 

 Julian always likes to play with my diaper bag stash of MommyCon flyers. Silly baby bear!

T.G.I.F!!

I work doubles on Friday nights, so by the end of the night I am done! Kansas is hosting an Electric run here tonight and I may go to that after work. Wish me luck if I do!

I've also entered into a #FreixenetFriday photo contest. I was going for a girls night out since those for me are few and far between. I am trying to win the grand prize, so I can post better quality pictures on the blog. I'd greatly appreciate any an all votes. If you have a moment please vote and share! http://bit.ly/16MRZPd This link should send you straight to my entry. If it goes back to your Facebook homepage it's because you are outside the USA or under 21. I am in the lead so far, but it ends in a month. 

What does your family do on Friday night? I'd love to know!

Happy Breastfeeding week!!

I am so proud and grateful to know I have been able to nurse my son Julian for a year now. We are still mixing a few formula bottles in with his diet, but overall I am proud of myself! 

 All you moms out there struggling with Breastfeeding. I just want you to know you are beautiful! Take a deep breathe in and say that to yourself! Exhale~! <3 Keep up the good work!
