GAGE'S FIRST HAIRCUT 12-26-09

We went down to the shop last night and gave Gage his first haircut. His hair was getting out of control, he had really long pieces and when he had his coat on they would stick up and out from the static. So we sat him up on the booster chair at my station and he just sat there like a little man, I was really shocked at first. Dusty was taking pictures while I was getting the clippers ready, then I put a little cape on him and started giving him a buzz cut with a #2. He was doing really good, I showed him the clippers and let him touch them and he let me do it. I almost started crying and I kept some of his hair for his baby book. He looks so cute. I hope that he is that good for all of his haircuts to come........

CHRISTMAS '09

On Christmas Eve we decided to let Gage open one of his presents, that was always a tradition with Dusty's family, so he went to town opening it up and we got him a funt bath set that has letters and numbers that stick to the tub and them some squirt toys, and it all fits into Winnie the Pooh's pot of "Hunny" ans sticks to the tub. Gage has a blast with it every night. anyway Christmas morning Dusty and I woke up about 6:30 and was waiting patiently for Gage, he woke up about 7:00. He was a little onery at first because it was early for him to be up but when we showed him that he could finally open the presents under the tree he was happy. First we opened Aunt Avi's gifts, and he got his fave Curious George monkey and movie. It was so funny when he saw the monkey he said ohhh and gave it a hug. Then we moved on to what "Santa" brought him, (dvd player for jeep, BIG legos) the we moved on to what we got him, (Berenstain Bears movie, sit and spin horse that plugs into the tv to teach him alphabet and songs, etc., a drawing board that glows in the dark, and goodies that was in his stocking). Then Gage went over to the tree and was grabbing everyone elses presents and wanted to unwrap them as well. Then of course Papa came and gave him a toy laptop and some trucks. We went up to uncle Andy's and of course they spoiled him with a four wheeler, well it was actually from Brooklynn, LOL!! After visitng Nana and great grand parents we came back home and just relaxed, it was a great day!! Uncle David, Aunt Toni, and Dax came up the next day and gave Gage a really cool Lego truck which is perfect for all the Legos he got and Gage and Dax had a blast playing for about an hour. Papa Gary and Nana Pat are coming home today and are going to stay for a week so I'm sure they will spoil him again.

WHAT'S NEW?!?!

Well we have been busy, getting ready for christmas and everything but I do have a few things I wanted to blog. I will have to post pics later on, Dust bought me a new Nikon camera but I have to download the cd to it before I can do pics. Anyway, we bought Gage a "potty" last weekend. It is really cute and talks to him after he goes potty. He has not used it yet of course but he does sit on it. We just wanted to get one in the bathroom so he could get used to it. We also had his pictures done last Sat. at Kiddie Kandids. He is such a ham when it comes to taking his picture. They turned out really cute. Today we took Gage to the Build-A-Bear Workshop. He made Frosty the Snowman, his favorite thing right now. It was really fun he got to give him a heart and kiss it before he put it in, then Frosty got a "bath" and then we accessorized. He also sings a song and lights up. Well I will try to post pics this week........Merry Christmas!!!!
