First haircut. I can’t even blame COVID, because I wouldn’t have taken him to get it professionally done anyway. I’ve never been awesome at cutting the boys’ hair, but this one turned out a little worse than usual (in my defense he would not be still!!) Fortunately, we had nowhere to go and no one to see how bad this cut was.
One of my favorite things to come from the COVID shutdowns was that my older two girls felt sorry for their sister because she couldn’t see any friends or go anywhere fun for her birthday, so they secretly planned an early morning birthday party just for the three of them, complete with games, homemade prizes, decorations, party favors, etc. AND, they enjoyed it so much they have kept up the tradition for each birthday since then, even after the locked down period ended.

JULY

We had a date night fishing on my husband’s boat. Right after we went out the temperature began to drop, it became super windy and choppy, and then it started to rain. We sped the whole way home in rain that felt like icy little spikes hitting my face. But, it was the first time I had been out on the boat in 13 years, so that was cool.

AUGUST

Poor baby had a fever up to 107. A few days later his rash told us it was just roseola, but on this day he was getting tests at the hospital.

I was so excited to hook up this bike trailer for the boys. I thought it would be the most awesome thing ever to be able to go on bike rides with all the kids instead of me walking while the girls rode. You guys. They. are. heavy. I thought I was going to die every time I took them for a ride. We didn’t take too many bike rides.
He was so excited to hold this kitty. Check out his brother trying to sneak in some petting.
