1 Month old and Hair today, Gone tomorrow...

I can't believe Brooklyn in already 1 month old. Time really does fly by. Brooklyn is doing really well. She is our happy, little dream baby. I am grateful to report that for 5 out of the last 6 nights she has slept for at least a 6 hour stretch. Keep it up little girl!

I'm one month old today. It is amazing how much she has changed this week.

Okay, now for a little Aiden update and to ask some advice. For a while now Aiden has had a habit of pulling his hair out. If you look closely under his crazy cowlick he has pulled out the front two inches of his hair line. We thought he had stopped this habit as the hair is growing back and he was telling us that he wasn't doing it anymore. However, this week while I was changing his sheets, I noticed clumps of hair in his bed. I asked him if he was pulling his hair out again and he told me "just a little bit." Then I caught him in the act. Instead of pulling the hair in front out now, he was targeting the back. He would wrap the hair around his finger and pull out the whole clump. After I got over the initial shock, I realized if this continues I he would be bald by Friday. We had to act fast so I turned to the internet. Big Mistake, the internet of course gave me the worse case scenario. However, I did find on a baby site that this can be common and most kids grow out of it. The solution, cut their hair short and if needed put oil in it so they can't grab onto it to, to pull it out. Last night was hair cutting night. We braved the cut ourselves. Shae did a fabulous job, after we figured out our clippers were worthless and borrowed some from a neighbor. Thanks Kayde and Casey! So if any of you out there have experienced anything similiar and have some more advice for us we would appreciate it.

Aiden love to help us bake and always asks us to take a picture of him licking the beater. This is also his hair before we cut it. Daddy working his magic with the clippers! This kid has a thick head of hair.
All finished. Aiden likes his new "short" haircut.
This picture doesn't do the bald spot justice but gives a little idea of where he was pulling it out.
