Spring flowers, more puffs and some MJ Love

Spring is here - finally! Thought I'd post a few of my favorite little flower clippies!





And some pink Princess Puffs with the adorable outfit made with extra love from her Aunt Missy (thanks, sis!)







And I gotta give some love to Matilda Jane - who's that you might ask? It's not necessarily a who, but a what. Only one of the cutest clothing lines ever for little girls and big girls too. Check it out at Matilda Jane Clothing Here's Bridget in the shirt from the last line (she poses for all photos now!). She asks to wear it every day. I'm excited to see the new line at a trunk show next weekend. Even more excited that I won something via Denise's (the insanely clever designer of all that yummy cuteness) blog - not sure what I won yet but I am sure that I'll love it. Will let you know when I get it!

Headbands and a Haircut

I'm loving these new headbands - totally adjustable so I can wear them and Bridget can too - not that I wear cupcakes in my hair... but I could and it would fit. The headband adjusts with a toggle, so it can fit any size head... from baby to adult. It stays on very well - you can make it as tight as you want (no elastic to make it pop off). It is very lightweight and comfortable. You can even clip a bow or flower to it! They really stay in all day (or until Bridget decides she needs a different one to match her bathing suit - she's into beach parties lately.)

And my baby got his first haircut yesterday. A few tears were shed - by me not him, he was pretty ambivalent. I didn't really want to do it - I knew it would make him look older but the rats nest of tangles on the back of his head was really geting to be too much. I asked the stylist to leave a little of the length (but no mullet please). Here's a pic from a few weeks ago - it looked so cute from the front (never got a picture from behind - it wasn't pretty) I love the curls over his ears and there was one in the back ( I saved that - Jeff thinks it's weird)



Yes, he's playing "Deal or No Deal" - typical man - loves anything w/ buttons and lights and noise! Here's a during picture - already looking more like a little boy than my baby :(


And here's the final outcome. Not as grown-up as I feared but still makes my heart heavy. I held him a little closer and longer last night before he went to sleep. I know I'm going to blink and he's going to be....
This big - I still can't believe that my little boy is 7! Time flies...
