Mommy Moment! :\

Ok... so I thought we were past being up all night with Devon but this is not true! Last night, Devon screamed bloody murder when we put him in his crib! He has done this every night this week BUT the other nights, he would cry himself to sleep! Not last night though! He screamed and screamed, so we put him in bed with us and then he wanted to play. He would cuddle with me and then give me kisses and then he would go sit on Jamie and started to box him (that is his newest thing, since seeing Jamie and Milldog box, he thinks he is a boxer). Then he would try and turn on the light and got mad when Jamie moved him. I am so wore out! It is ridiculous! Finally I started to rub his belly to calm him down and gave him some tylenol to help his mouth and he wimpered while I rubbed it and then I went and laid down and he started to cry but was asleep within 5 minutes. Oh, the joys of Motherhood!

Devon's first haircut!!!

As many of you know, Devon has not had a haircut because his Dad didn't want to cut it until he was 2 years old. Devon is 18 months old and has needed a haircut really since he was born. Well Monday evening, we were eating dinner and Jamie said to just take him to Sports Clips to get his haircut. Mom and I looked at each other and said "did you hear that?" Well shortly after dinner, we were at Sports Clips with kids in tow. Blake also got his hair trimmed (it was already short). Devon was very good and Jamie was suprised we didn't have more cut. I just wanted it out of his face and lighter on his neck. But here are some pics of the event. *** for all the sports fans out there, Griffey (Mommy's fav baseball player), got his 600th career homerun moments before we walked in the door to have his hair cut! So Devon got his 1st haircut on a very big day in sports history!!!***
