It&#8217;s kind of hard to believe that almost a year has gone by since he was born.  It&#8217;s been a busy year, that&#8217;s for sure!  I haven&#8217;t been able to just enjoy each and every moment of Judah&#8217;s first year in the way that I wish I could have, but it&#8217;s okay&#8230;..Angelica is alive and that statement right there, kind of puts it all into perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Enough with the deep and serious talk, let talk about something a bit lighter, shall we?<\/p>\n<p>I love little baby hair.  It&#8217;s so cute and soft and fuzzy.  Judah has a cowlick in the back of his head and it makes his hair stand straight up.  It&#8217;s so SO cute.  Up until now, there&#8217;s been no need or reason to cut Judah&#8217;s hair, and I like to leave my babies hair alone because usually as soon as you cut it, they end up looking like little boys and I already have two little boys&#8230;I still want my baby!!!!!<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/xangelle\/5782126356\/\" title=\"So Happy by Xangelle, on Flickr\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2001\/5782126356_24966f586c_z.jpg?resize=640%2C425\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" alt=\"So Happy\"><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>But&#8230;&#8230;it was getting so goofy looking and I just wasn&#8217;t sure what to do.<\/p>\n<p>I thought about shaving his head, like the rest of us were doing, but I really wasn&#8217;t sure that&#8217;s what I wanted to do.

(<em>At least I think so!<\/em>)<\/p>\n<p>He did so good.  I&#8217;ll admit that I was nervous about how he would handle the clippers and whether he would sit still enough for me to actually buzz his head, but he wasn&#8217;t scared of the noise.  He didn&#8217;t fuss or squirm too much, just played with a few random things that we gave him and in minutes it was all done.  Here he is freshly buzzed, just before his bath.  <\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/xangelle\/5782128564\/\" title=\"All Gone by Xangelle, on Flickr\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3657\/5782128564_020d691793_z.jpg?resize=640%2C425\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" alt=\"All Gone\"><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>I managed to snap this shot of him on Tuesday morning.
