Braden's first Haircut

Since I went to get a hair cut today - I thought it was the perfect time for Braden to get his first trim. He had no interest in sitting in the booster seat that Debbie got out for him - so he sat in my lap. When it was time to put the "cape" around his neck, he ripped it right off. And to top it off when he wouldn't even look at Debbie - but at least he didn't CRY!

Tickle Me Elmo

Braden has warmed up to his Tickle me Elmo - which he received for his first Birthday. In the beginning he wouldn't go near him - but now he tries to grab him as he's moving!!

My Birthday

I got to celebrate my birthday twice this past weekend. On Friday we went out to dinner (to Bertucci's) with my mom, sister, brother and grandparents and had a huge chocolate cake afterwards. Everyone enjoyed the cake - but it was extremely rich. On Sunday night (my actual birthday) we celebrated by having fajitas at the Hardel house. There were two desserts - "strawberry shortcake" and chocolate cupcakes (thanks to Jody) just for me.

I had a wonderful "Birthday Weekend" and received lots of great gifts. I am very thankful to have such a wonderful family.
