Gardner, for the very first time yesterday, came up to me, grabbed my hand, and "led" me into the playroom to play with him. I followed, heart entirely melted into a puddle on the floor, about to cry. SO SWEET. When did he learn THIS??!!

He did it!!! Last night, Gardner slept in his new room and his "big boy bed" for the very first time. How'd it go?

I was wrong. I just had the same incident occur minutes ago, wh...

Gardner had his first trip to a real barber shop this weekend. Not the powder-puff kiddie place this time around....he got a real haircut along with Daddy. From the look of his expression in this photo, however, you can tell he wasn't exactly thrilled as he looked on in anticipation of the event. Despite a few protesting pleas, he eventually settled down into a very still pose and let the barber go to town. Here, his haircut is nearly complete. He was holding still for the neck trim. From little boy to little man in 10 minutes flat.
