Austin's First Haircut!

You probably remember me talking about Austin's little hair problem. I made a consultation hair appointment because we were at a loss for what to do with this boy's locks. We knew he was too darn young for a comb over! I called it a "consultation" because I was in denial that my little baby needed an actual hair cut. Only big kids get haircuts! After our lovely stylist checked it out, we decided it was probably best to go ahead with his first cut...

He sat on my lap during the actual cut. We both got capes!He was such a brave little boy!
Even when she trimmed around his ears and neck!
I think this is just the cutest picture...
(Anyone know how to photoshop that random kid out of the back??)

He even got a special First Hair Cut Certificate!
Thanks so much Lara! You did a wonderful job!
I just want to know where my baby went! And where did this blondie come from??

Nightly Routine

We have fallen into a nice nightly routine now that we're on a two-a-day nap schedule. Each night consist of eating, playtime, Wheel, rolling, puffs, toast, cereal, fruit, bath time, storybooks, toys, diaper changes, hugs, kisses, smiles and this game...

What on earth did we do for fun before we were parents??

The Best Anniversary Gift!

March 3 - A good Day

Two years ago Mommy and Daddy became Mr. and Mrs. Kiefer. They stood together taking their vows before God, their family and their friends, not know that just two years later they could be even happier then they were at that very moment.
Little did they know that in just two years the very definition of happiness would take on a whole new meaning. Little did they know that in less then two short years they'd create a new life. A life that means the world to both of them. A life that made them a family. A life that was created all because two people fell in love and made a vow to each other on March 3, 2007.
Happy Anniversary Daddy. Mommy loves you now more then ever.
