A Real Haircut

Drew has technically had his first haircut, but that was just a tiny little snip around his ears. Today, I took him for his first real haircut...at the Barber! I was a little nervous since I had never been inside a barber shop and I was worried they would buzz off all of his baby hair. Drew was a pretty good boy, and as long as he had his cup of Cheerios, he sat relatively still.
Some of our adventures from earlier in the week included a freezing cold trip to the playground:
And wearing Daddy's sunglasses while riding in the car:

It has been a while since I have bragged about how smart he is, so I thought I would do a little catch up. Last week, Drew said his ABC's from start to finish..3 times in a row! After only reading a Library book twice with me, he picked it up and started reciting some of it back. He knows a lot of his books by heart and you would think that he could read if you sat next to him while he went through it, but I was shocked when he recalled that information so quickly. I don't keep track of new words anymore, because it seems like he knows them all, but he is doing pretty well talking in sentences and has begun using tenses. For example, he pointed out a new french door that dad put in..."daddy painted da door....poppy helped". Or, even funnier tonight in the tub "I tooted" (rather than the typical "toot").

Andy and I are often dumbfounded and don't really know where he gets this stuff from. You will hear us saying "where did this kid come from" quite often around the house.
