Crazy scientist hair

When Kade was born, he had a decent amount of dark hair. Then somewhere around the 3 month mark my little boy went bald...very bald (minus a strip on the back of his head.) Slowly over the course of this last year he had FINALLY started to get a decent amount of hair. Most of it is on the back of his head, but we were willing to take whatever we could get.  Around 9-10 months he started to get the most precious baby curls around his neck and ears and I thought there was NO way I would ever cut his hair. Well, just a few short months later those sweet curls turned into these straight, stringy, frizzy, semi curls- we started calling it his crazy scientist hair. After a few weeks of discussion (discussion = Bryan telling me it was time to cut it and me ignoring him) I decided it was time for the cut. And at the ripe old age of 13 months, Kade got his first haircut! I, surprisingly, wasn't as sad as I thought I would be!

Here he is the before!

Crazy scientist hair!

Getting all ready to go.
  



The finished product..I am not a fan of the mohawk, I prefer the comb over :) Kade was also "over it" at this point.

Weekend of firsts...

We had a wonderful, fun filled weekend! It was a weekend of a lot of firsts for the big man. Bryan was off on Friday so we took Kade to the State Fair for his very first time. I LOVE the fair and everything that goes along with it (including all the fried food :) The weather couldn't have been any prettier and Kade was just perfect the whole time we were there!

Kade and Big Tex


The whole gang.

Next on the list was to get Kade his very first State fair corn dog! I think he loved it!
  

Then a stop by the petting zoo...

A little stop inside the children's aquarium. 
  
And we finished the day playing in the children's museum!
And this is what I saw about 2 minutes after getting into the car...
 Saturday, I took Kade to a birthday party. My social little boy has 3 parties in the next few weekends! Later that night, I ditched the boys and went to a wedding with Lauren. We had a blast and danced the night away :) And on Sunday Kade got his very first haircut...but I will save that for the next post!
