My Baby got his First Haircut!

I have known this day was coming soon. My son has been pushing the hair out of his eyes and on Halloween got candy stuck in his hair. It was time to get a haircut! I have been dreading this day because he has the sweetest long curly hair and I am worried his curls won't come back. That somehow this means he is a big boy. He just turned two hes only just a baby still. Perhaps I am over emotional about it, maybe I am more calm than some moms, either way I knew I had to cut it for him. He hates his hair brushed and to wash it makes him so very mad! He started to pull at it when it annoyed him. There is always the people who say oh dont cut it the curls will never come back to the people who say your little girl is so cute! LOL But in reality it is up to me and my husband on what type of hair do he will have until he can tell me himself what he likes.

His long curly hair!

Over the Thanksgiving weekend we took him to our local mall to go to my favorite place to get my haircut. I had an awesome coupon to use too! It just arrived in the mail a few days before this and I already cut my hair so it must have been meant for him right?! When we left the house around 6 pm it was oddly very very foggy like creepy foggy. When we arrived at the mall I took his picture a bunch of times and almost thought no dont do it. But I did not want to be that kind of mom that gets all crazy about sentimental things. Its hair it will grow back!

As we were getting his haircut he was calm like wow calm. He is a wild monkey most of the time. He watched himself in the mirror as the woman cut his hair. He had his BFF stuffed giraffe in his arms and there was a giraffe on the cover he was wearing too. He liked that. We wanted a trim at first then it got shorter each time she asked is that short enough. We decided to go ahead and cut it short like in his baby pictures so we could see his sweet face and big blue eyes. The cutest thing was when he would take out his binkie look in the mirror smile at himself and then put it back. Toward the end he did get a bit restless and his bangs and side burns need to be straightened but for the most part the haircut is great. After his haircut we changed his outfit and let him go play at the mall play yard. He had a blast running around a squealing with the other kids. This time he did not have to push his bangs out of the way as he was running he seemed very happy about his new hairdo. For a moment I almost cried that he did not have those bouncing curls flowing in the air as he whooshed down the slide but than I told myself hes happy so I am happy.

His new Big Boy Hair cut

HearthSong Magneatos Magnetic Balls and Rods Building Set Review and $50 Gift Certificate Giveaway

When looking for gifts for my boys I love the idea of something different and fun that they can build and rebuild. When the toy is something you create it is always a different outcome and that is neat to watch. HearthSong has so many of these great, interesting, and unique items like Toys and Games, Arts and Interests and what they call Kids Style. To brake it down for you, shopping by Age is a great way to narrow it down. While shopping around for JJ's birthday I came across the Magneatos and knew he would just love them! He has never had anything magnetic before so I was interested to see how he would react to the toy. JJ loved it of coarse!

JJ loves anything to do with art, how cool would this A Work of Art Box be?

How about these Mouth Man Hooded Tees, they are cracking me up!

Lots of great items to choose from for the little ones on your gift list. Check out everything HearthSong has online.

TimsBoots.com Kids Cowboy Boots Review and $50 Giveaway Birthday Bash

Cowboy Boots have been something I have wanted for my son since he was born. I think they are so cute yet so cool at the same time. I have the greatest memory and thankfully there are pictures, of my little brother having a pair of red cowboy boots and a stick horse. My little brother is an amazing man and I would love for my son to be just like him. Hes a stand up guy with a heart of gold, what mom would not want a son like that!

I have been looking for the perfect pair of cowboy boots to get for my son since the summer and I finally found the ones I wanted (along with a few other pairs! They are all so cute!)  I found Timsboots.com to have the best selection and prices for kids cowboy boots. Plus they have a very nice customer service department!

My son wears a toddler size since he is 2. I was surprised at the variety of selection for the toddler sizes. Many places I have looked only have a few to select from. I saw a few pairs I will like to get him in the future as his little feet get bigger.

My son unwrapped his new Red Cowboy Boots for his birthday and he was thrilled to see them. He yelled "Shoes!" He had a Toy Story birthday party and we got him a Woody Talking toy as a gift. He showed me how he had boots and so does Woody. It was so cute! He can even put them on all by himself. The pair I ordered for my son were under $50 they have many boots for kids, toddlers and infants priced under $50. That is a great deal compared to many places I have looked for kids boots.

The first time I put them on him he was like Bambi when he first stood to walk. He was wobbly for a few seconds then took off around the living room. He was running in circles over and over yelling "Weeee Weeee" it was the cutest reaction I have seen to a pair of shoes lol. He loves to wear them all the time now. He wanted to wear them to bed and that was a battle trying to explain we don't wear cowboy boots to bed.

Now all I need it a stick horse and a hat and my little cowboy will be set! Cowboy Boots are the perfect gift for any kid this holiday season in addition to a birthday present! They also carry adult boots.
