First Hair Cut

I broke down yesterday and clipped the hair that was winging over Williams ears. It is a challenge to get a one year old to sit still while wielding a scissors, but we managed to get it clipped and not looking too bad. Much to Adam's disgust I save a few hairs for William's baby book.

William looks a lot like me as a baby in this picture; my Mom dressed me in overalls a lot when I was young, and no surprise this outfit was from Grandma Mc.


Will looks like me when squinting or wrinkling his brow, and he looks like Adam when he smiles.

We have enjoyed having Grandma Mc here for a long visit. She has been having fun playing with William, baking, and sewing. We are going to attempt a triangular visiting spree for Thanksgiving. We are leaving WI and then going to Iowa, then on to Minnesota, then back home. So hopefully William does well in the car at this age, if not it is going to be a long, long weekend.

Pictures Grandma Mc took on their days together. William is sporting his new jeans which are a great fit just a little long (thanks Grandma and Grandpa S).



And sporting our new coat from the Betker's. Its a perfect fit right now and is getting used with this cold weather.

Willam the One Year Old

William is having fun with his walk behind Mickey Mouse Airplane. He is not all that steady and needs a little help.



Stats from the Doctor's visit:

Weight 24 lbs 10oz (75%)
Height 32 1/4" (97%)
Head Circ 49cm (97%)

So we have a tall little boy with a large head, but we already knew that.

1st Birthday Preview

William had a wonderful birthday with both sets of Grandparents, Parents and family friends. Thanks to all who were here to make William's birthday a lot of fun. And thanks to all who sent wonderful birthday wishes and lovely presents. William is having a blast with all the new toys.

I should get more pictures from my friend Melissa, who took the picture taking off my shoulders for the party, later this week.

Pictures of William and some of his new toys!

Weekend Pics

Day Light Savings and babies don't mix. I have a very tired little boy at my feet, so I am only going to post a few pictures from the weekend.
