I figured I should try and play catch up a little bit. Jared turned 1 in April, and we had a little party with a few friends and family. Jared wasn't really sure what was going on, but once he figured out there was stuff in the bags, he got a little more into it. He did love the things he got though.
This was his cake that I made. The other kids picked it out for him as he didn't care what he got. If you can't tell, it is supposed to be a dinosaur.
He was really not sure about the candle and the fire. He didn't blow it out...
He did like the cake okay. He didn't go to town on it like I thought he might. But he ate some cake and some ice cream. Everyone else enjoyed it, so I guess it was good enough!
Just after his first birthday, we decided it was time for him to get a hair cut. His curls were super cute, but they were also super long. So we attempted to cut his hair. Brandon held him while I cut. He was not a big fan of the clippers on his head. It is very difficult to cut a moving target, but in the end we managed well enough and called it a success.
This is what he looked like. There were and still are a lot of long stray hairs, but it worked. Now he already needs another one. My kids just grow hair really fast I guess...
