Happy Birthday, Mason!



Our baby turned 1 on the 17th of March. We had a party for him at our home with family and friends. In true Mason fashion, he first made quite the face, but soon dug in! We have had quite the busy month of birthdays. Mason's cousin Kaden turned 1 on the 25th, as did his friend Isabella Johnston, and then twins Nico and Emilee Ashby-Eskew on the 27th!
Another milestone for Mason is that he finally started crawling. We didn't think that he was going to even bother with it, as he just kept pulling up on objects and walking around! The next thing I knew, he was on the other side of the room, on all fours! You just never know......

Happy Birthday, Mason!!!

First Haircut!




Michael had been bugging me to let Mason get a haircut.... I finally caved. I saw no need. Then, I kept seeing Mason messing with the hair around his ears... clearly, it was beginning to bother him. We got a recommendation from our friends Bob & Minda (their son, Will, was born with a truckload of hair, and at 6 months had received 2 hair cuts!). We took him to Little Clippers in Clackamas ( I am not snazzy enough to figure out how to post the actual link, I will ask my husband for help next time!) It is by far the coolest place invented for children that we have discovered thus far. First off, he sat in a car to have his hair cut, he got to pick out a movie to watch (Finding Nemo), and he got his hair cut by the sweetest woman. In the end, it was a great experience, and we will definitely go back. He looks so handsome after his haircut!
