Abbie, Bud and Zabe

Zabe got his first May Day basket from my eldest client Alice.  Zabe loves Alice, he smiles and flirts with her quite a bit.  Alice is my only client I style every week so Zabe sees her a lot.  Last week when she was here and we were washing her hair at the bowl he came over and put his hand on hers. Since she's older (87) she has a shake, so I think he was just trying to calm her hand down.  So cute.

I got a couple pictures of them together yesterday with his May Day basket, filled with chocolate and an orange that he thought was a ball.  So that got tossed around the salon most of the afternoon. 

Em, Linda and I had a photo shoot with ourselves a couple weekends ago with our Tracy Joy camera bags.  See the blog our picture is on here.

And here's the picture.

Praying for Jamie O'Reilly and boys.  We love you all!!

The word of the day.  Zabe is obsessed with school buses lately.  He kept asking me this morning where the school buses were.  Then he snorted, like they were sleeping so I told him they must be tired and are taking a nap.  You can only explain so many times to a 1.5 year old that the kids already got off the bus and are at school for the day.  Too funny.

Some more picts of Zabe from our shoot a while ago that I meant to get up here much earlier. 

Going farming with Grandpa for the first time this spring.  

He was so excited.  He looked back to wave bye to us.

Almost there.

The sheep.  Ask Shelly or mom about the story of the sheep that day. 

Got Barley?

Some men still look at the directions. 

He wasn't really havin' our photo shoot.  But it was fun anyway.

My dad got a CELL PHONE yesterday.  I about lost it when Shelly told me.  I couldn't believe it.  He hates phones, or has always disliked them, especially to the point I NEVER thought he'd get one.  It will be so handy now to get  a hold of him.  Usually we have to call one of the boys to try to track him down.  Last night he called me on his new toy and says, "Howdy!"  I was still laughing at the fact he got one so he was wondering what was so funny.  I said, "I just can't believe you actually got one!"  He said he felt like he was missing out on things.  Funny. 

I wonder what's next.  Maybe he'll get a tattoo next week. 

Howdy, long time no see.  I thought I would hop on here quick to tell you what ZABE has been up too.  Although I don't think I have to many new recent pictures of him.  I did cut his hair into a Mohawk recently and he looks adorable. 

All about Zabe.

-40 some pounds or something.

-almost as tall as his father......or getting there.  He's growing like a weed lately.

-he's been very whiney while I've been doing hair lately.  Not sure if his 2 year molars are coming in or what his deal is, crabby!!

-he is so very attached to his blanky.  Not sure how it happened, or when but it's annoying.  He still sucks on it when he sleeps or just whenever I let him have it. 

-he's still stubborn and will only drink milk out of 1 kind of sippy cup. 

-still sleeping like a champ.  The other night he slept from 8p.m.-10:00a.m.

-down to just one nap a day.....tear.

-obsessed with school buses, trucks, tractors, lawn mower, mule, bikes etc.  Pretty much anything that can be drivin.

-like's 2 syllable words instead of one.

-loves to be outside

-grandpa is still one of the coolest people, along with cousin J.J.

-saying many words (when you can understand him)

The other morning it was almost 9, I could hear him through the monitor that he was awake.  The high school band was outside in front of the house practicing marching, I thought Zabe would enjoy watching and hearing them so I got him out of his bed and went into our room so he could see them.  He was all smiles, as they played and marched away he started signing more and please.  I said they went bye bye, and he continued to sign it, then he snorted.  Snorting has been a big thing with him because it means their sleeping.  When you ask him where grandpa, daddy, or the school bus is during the day he will snort.  Funny stuff.

I can't really think of anything else to exciting.  Peace out, and have a great LONG weekend. 

The notorious sippy cup.  I got these boots at a garage sale, the other day he brought them to me and kept saying J.J. I told him that they were Zabe's boots and asked him if he wanted them on, of course he did.  After he stood up he started walking away turned around and signed thank-you.  It was so cute, he also signed it when I gave him a pair of new sunglasses I bought for him.  Precious.  Crazy how kids understand what that all means.

Saturday I took Cassi and Gooz's engagement pictures.  Jason (Gooz's brother) has a a couple :) derby vehicles out at his parents where we took the pictures.  I couldn't help but take some pictures of this car that was sold.

A few pictures from the shoot.  Gooz, Cassi and Emma       

I did Brooklynn's pictures last Saturday.  Brooklynn is my sister Shelly's best friend Jodi's daughter.  Zabe is just a day older than Brooklynn.  Check out the size difference though :)  Granted the outfit he had on didn't do a thing for him.  I think the sweatshirt is a little boys small.  To only think he should be wearing size 18 month and he's outgrown size 18 month, 2T, 3T and some 4T.  Mostly all his clothes are 5T or boys small.  :)

Telling secrets.....already.

Heeeeeeeeyyyyyyyyy.

kisses.

"So what do you like to do for fun?"

Baby booties.

"Your so cute Zabe!"
