I got a haircut!

Daddy and Mommy loaded me up in the truck today. The next thing I know I am sitting on Mommy's lap and some lady is spraying water on my hair and playing with it. By the time she quit, I had less hair. I liked my stylishly long hair - all the ladies fussed over it. I thought I looked hip too. If only I didn't have to sit in the carseat - it just makes me hot and my long hair didn't help. To be honest, it upsets me when I get so hot. The haircut was probably a good idea. Anyway here are some pictures from a couple of days ago to show the before and then one of my cut and an after pic. Enjoy!

Love,

Graham

Hippy Baby or Hip Baby

Next week will be a momentus one in Graham's life - he will be getting a hair cut. Mom wants to ensure people think he is a boy and she is also empathetic to the extra insulation it adds to his neck. You might think with cold weather we wouldn't be worried about excess insulation but Graham is a little heater. When we get him out of his carseat he is often radiati.ng heat and the back of his hair is damp - note this is while wearing his outfit of the day, no coat. Poor little guy! Either way he will no longer look like he is growing into a hippy or trying to look like the 'hip' longer haired teens and 20 somethings

Graham continues to get stronger. He likes to be upright. If we are holding him so that he is too reclined he will try to pull himself up more upright. Either that or he is already doing crunches! He is also taking an interest in his exersaucer. He is still on the small side so we are always nearby if he is in the exersaucer.

Napping still isn't Graham's favorite activity but he shows signs he is tired. With some effort, he is coaxed to sleep. Mom keeps hoping that he figures out napping makes him feel better. Grandma just says Graham is like his mother!

More photos will be posted after his haircut, but here are some recent pics.

I am a ham!

I am turning into quite the ham. My smiles are coming quicker. I think it is funny when I am almost asleep and Mommy puts me in my crib for a nap but I wake myself up and smile at her. She has fooled me into staying a sleep some and thinks she will ultimately win the battle. We will see. Mommy took me to vote today. She says it is important - hope you all voted too. I really like to put my hands in my mouth now and end up on my side when I sleep. I did a 180 while napping this morning. Yeah, I am getting to be big stuff. Mommy likes to put me on my stomach and see what I can do. As you can see, I am getting really good at that neck control thing, but haven't quite figured out how to roll onto my back. I sure try. Hope you enjoy the latest pics. I hear you are all fans of my great 'do!

Love,
Graham
