Quinton's First Birthday!

One week ago today my baby turned one! We had a little family party to celebrate the big event.

Quinton and his cousins

He ate the rice crispy basketball and didn't really want much to do with the cake :)

"eh-oh"

Quinton's First Haircut :(

Now that I'm done with school (at least until I get accepted into the nursing program), I should have more time to update my blog. I decided it was time for Quinton's first haircut. With a little convincing of Corey, we set out to get the perfect trim, taking turns holding the kid down while the other one cut. His hair was really long up on the crown and starting to curl down at the nape of his neck. The curls were cute, but I didn't want to be one of those moms with a baby that has a mullet just because I can't let go of their baby hair :) We ended up taking about an inch off the top. The next day I trimmed the sides and back a bit with the clippers. Here is the before and after pictures. My little baby doesn't look like a baby anymore :( He looks so grown up!

Before

After: Still wet and spiked, so it doesn't look much different.
