Patrick is rapidly becoming such a big boy. With new words like “No”, “Thank You”, “Meow” (his word for Cat), “Good”, and of course, his favorite, “BALL”, he’s becoming less and less of a baby! He’s getting much smarter, too. He has a little hand sign that he uses to show when he’s done eating, he is becoming more clever when playing with his learning toys (actually sorting them or stacking them rather than banging them!), and he’s even learned how to use the TV remote and play computer games with Oma and Dada. He’s growing up so fast!!!

One of the things that Andrew and I noticed recently is that his hair, which has only been cut in the back, was starting to get into his eyes and he needed his first real hair cut. Well, today I had some time to waste where I had to be out of the house while my oven was cleaning itself, and so I took him to a special hair salon that deals only with children. I was a little afraid to try to tackle cutting his hair myself until I had seen how a professional does it! Well, we brought him to Kids Cuts, he got to sit in the special little Police Car seat and watch Disney while the lady worked quickly to get it his hair cut before he could fuss and complain. She was quick!!! And he was squiggly too. That must be the hardest hair cutting job ever! When she was done, he looked like a totally different kid. He looks much more grown up now. It’s amazing. You’ll have to see for yourself!
