Buzzcut Before and After

Dear Baby Bird,

Before



After


You were so good while Daddy gave you your second hair cut.  You sat on the counter holding a comb and looked in the mirror. The hair in the back of your head likes to stick up all funny, so I have a feeling we'll be giving you this short hair cut pretty often.

Love,
Mom

Nana's New House

Dear Baby Bird,

Nana moved into a new house and you got to visit it last weekend. You loved running around exploring the new house, especially playing peek around the island in the kitchen.

Nana brought some toys to her new house, and your favorite one was the McDonald's set. Brother loves that one, too!

We're going to have lots of fun on our visits to Nana's New House!

Love,
Mom

Snow Day

Dear Baby Bird,

Today you woke from your morning nap to a wonderful surprise: Snow!
At first it was just flakes, but by the time we got home from a shopping trip (to buy you boots), it was sticking to the ground.

Daddy was home today for Veterans' Day, so we bundled up and took you outside for your first walk in snow.

You were pretty excited about it, although at first you mostly walked along the sidewalks.
 
 Finally you were willing to walk across the yard, and didn't even mind when you tripped and got snow on your gloves.
 In fact, the only time you cried was when we got inside. You wanted to go back out, and kept carrying your gloves and boots to us, signing "please" and pointing to the door.
Guess I know we'll be spending a lot of time outside this winter!

Love,
Mom

Brothers are best

Dear Baby Bird,
Although you love playing with pretty much anyone and everyone, there is no-one in the world quite like Brother.



You don't even need toys to play together. Just space to run, maybe a place to hide.

Love,
Mom
