Caden's First Haircut!

Uh-oh...here come the scissors!
Glad he is smiling now, because as soon as Papa started to cut, Caden started to scream!
Look how handsome I am with my big blue eyes - now that you can see them!
Hmmm....I wonder what else is in here?
Oops! Mama caught me making a mess!

Caden finally had his first haircut this past weekend. We have been letting it grow, because it curls in the back and is too darn cute, but the front was getting so long that we couldn't see his beautiful baby blues. So on Saturday, we took out the scissors. Jay trimmed just the front so we could see his eyes. Thank goodness we didn't need to trim more than that because Caden screamed when we did it. You would have thought it hurt the way he yelled! That brings me to his recent temper tantrums. If anyone knows how to stop an 11-month-old from throwing fits, please let me know. They didn't teach me that in my teaching classes! Of course, Jay and I just let him throw his fit and ignore it (as long as he isn't hurting himself). What a character he is already! He will learn fast in our house that he is not going to get his way all the time!

The other photos I have shared here are of Caden playing in our cabinets. He enjoys going into the tupperware cabinet, which is always a mess anyway...I can never manage to keep that one clean! Caden just loves playing with all the tupperware and as you can see - he manages to get his whole body in there to play. It keeps him busy while we cook, so we can't complain...but if you ever need to use tupperware while you are visiting us, be sure to rinse it out before using it. You are bound to come across some Caden drool or dog hairs :-)

We will have lots to share next month - Caden will be turning one!!! And we hope he will be walking by then, too. He is getting too heavy to carry everywhere!!
