First haircut

Well I've been saying we need to cut your hair for a couple months now, but just couldn't bring myself to actually do it!  Something about your sweet soft baby hair I just didn't want to ruin it. 

Your hair grows in a funny way - as most babies hair does - lots in the back and enough on top but nothin on the sides!  Your bangs were starting to get really long so today I finally trimmed them!

When you were about 6 months old your hair grew in a perfect line in the front- so perfect that people would ask if we cut it that way! Now it looks sort of like that again with your sweet face showing and no wispy hairs hanging down too low.

The past week you have started to copy sounds that we make when we ask you to. You can do lots of "ah" sounds like dada, baba, mama, gaga, lala and we keep trying papa too. 

While you are playing with your toys it sounds like you are having full conversations with your toys. You use the right intonation and you pause just like a real conversation. The words feel like they are coming soon. Some days I can't wait for you to talk and then other times I just love your baby babble.
