Nolan’s First Haircut! (He had hair to cut?)- 18 months

May 18th, 2011 by Busy Mommy

Yes, as a matter of fact, he did.  There was a little tiny bit of extra fuzz at the back that could have used a little clipping off, so that’s what we did.  A good friend who is a hair stylist was willing to cut his hair, and what fun we had!  He looked hilarious in the huge adult sized cape!

Here’s some video of the whole affair:

Your Mother’s a blonde

May 18th, 2011 by Busy Mommy

So I recently went wayyyy more blonde than I’ve ever gone before- and I’m loving the change!  After and before:

And just in case you’re a guy and you don’t know how the whole coloring your hair thing works, here’s a few snapshots!  As you can see, there are no crayons anywhere to be found, but you might be surprised to know that foil is a big part of the process! Just think of all the million of pounds of aluminum foil that goes to waste coloring and highlighting women’s hair….oh well!  That ain’t going to be stopping anytime soon, because if there’s anything women will always not be happy with and always tire of, it’s their hair.  My hair got quite a bit darker after Nolan was born, and I was feeling pretty “blend in with the crowd” before I had this do-over! Here it is when I do it the wavy way- another change after Nolan’s birth- my hair used to be stick straight, but thanks to his coming along and whatever hormonal changes that went with it, I can now scrunch my hair and walla- some wave!

He Ain’t No Baby Anymore

May 18th, 2011 by Busy Mommy

It makes me smile that my mom still refers to Nolan as “the baby”.  I just had to go buy him size 7 shoes.  Size 7!  When did he become a little boy?  He’s running around, climbing things,  saying 65 words as of this moment, and when you see him next to my best friend’s little 3 month old boy, well, he’s just not a baby anymore.  Sigh.
