Tyson's First Haircut

We finally went and got Tyson his first haircut this weekend. It took a total of 2 minutes and wasn't that exciting really. I probably could have done it at home, but I didn't want to mess it up! It wasn't like a real haircut though, since the boy doesn't really have that much. It was more like a mullet removal of sorts:) I was tired of the back of his hair fluffing out like Joe Dirt all the time, so off to the barber we went on Saturday morning. He hated everything about the whole thing! He ripped the cape off of his neck the second the put it on him, he wouldn't hold his head still, and he kept trying to turn around and see what they were doing to him. He cried too. I managed to get one picture, but that was all I could bear since it wasn't a pretty sight, and over so fast. It will probably be a while until he needs a real haircut, so hopefully I can just keep the back part trimmed at home. He did receive a certificate for surviving his first haircut, and a sucker. I got to keep the first pieces of his little baby hair too. I guess it goes in the baby book. I didn't take any before and after pictures, because they pretty much would have looked the same:)
Anyway. The rest of the pictures are just cute ones of him from the last 2 weeks. He has started doing this dopey face for the camera, which looks pretty silly:) He is also finally cutting some new teeth, so there is lots of snot and drool lately. He hasn't been too horribly grumpy though, so that's good. This morning when I went to get him from the church nursery they told me he is like a tank, just bull dozing everything down in his path! They love him and thinks he's fun to watch. I guess that nickname could stick....Tank Orbison. Or Tyson the Tank. It sounds like a football player to me:)
We had horrible wind here last night from the last of Ike, and it drove me crazy all night long. It sounded like the roof was going to be ripped off the house, along with the shutters and everything else. It just kept waking me up every time I would get back to sleep. Then the power went out about 5 am and stayed off until 9 am, so we had to get ready for church in the dark, and I didn't get a shower! Thank goodness I had taken one last night before bed, but my hair was out of control. I pulled it back and tried not to think about it again:) Luckily the sound inside the house was much worse than what was actually going on outside, and there really wasn't any damage around our neighborhood. Just lots of leaves and small branches down for the most part. Tyson's little blow up pool in the backyard must have flown off to Kansas, since its not there this morning. Oh well, now I don't have to deflate it and store it.
The rest of our day has been lazy and fun. Silas went to shoot clay skeet this afternoon with a group of men from church, and I hung out on the couch and watched some Titan football:) Now we are making brownies, which are smelling delicious, and are calling my name at this very moment. Must go eat chocolate now!

Aren't the Titans off to a good start? I'm pleasantly surprised:)
