rice cereal... and grey hair?

so its turned out to be such an eventful weekend! mommy & reiken was finally able to get out of the house a lil bit to go have lunch with his rdawg, collin, co endren & cu ct. then chu billy and collin's grandparents came over for a little bit as well. so fun! after we got back home, reiken got to have his first meal of rice cereal... it was yummy! (ok, not so much cause mommy tried some but good thing he has nothing to compare it to - heehee) THEN... while hangin out with chi victoria, chi all of a sudden spotted a grey hair on the top of his almost bald little head! turns out, it was a grey hair - all hangin out by its lonesome! why the stress? we're not sure... guess it can be hard being a baby sometime!

thanks chu ct for the mini-photo session and the new profile pic!! another pic below showcasing the photographer's talents!














and here is the grey hair!

anh tristan came over for the day... reiken had such a good time!

he doesn't do it often but mommy finally got the 'big' finale on camera!

trickery...

so its a typical tuesday evening and on our way home from work, ms. le suggests we give reiken a trim and that she's more than willing to do it for mommy..."should be real quick" she says...

gettin ready..




















ms. jackie then volunteers to hold reiken for mommy so she can take pictures... look at that smile... shoulda known something was up...






























mommy and reiken both starts to sense this is not your typical trim















then mommy got called out to the kitchen to take down an addy for ba...















when the cut went bad... "he moved too much and it accidentally got too high on the side" she said..
















the point of no return
















here they are...yup, the culprits taking off in the rain...




















and this is what they left behind...

he finally flipped on tuesday but we still haven't been able to catch it on video... oh well, here's "bubba" with cousin vic...

another hot day in texas!

happy fourth everyone - hope you all had a good one! we skipped the fireworks this year so no pix but we have plenty from the rest of the week. so this past week, it was mommy's birthday and reiken got to celebrate it for the first time, and making it the best one yet! then a/c went out so the family spent the 4th indoors waiting for the a/c man to change out the motor! but just today, he completed his first reverse-flip from tummy to back. it was quite exciting but unfortunately, camera was not available. he now also talks and rambles all day long now.. sign of things to come...
