Slainte!

Top 'O the evening to ya! We Flehartys like to celebrate St. Paddy's day in style, even though we are FLEA-heart-ees and not FLAIR-tees! My mom (Mimi) sent Drew this cute St. Patrick's day t-shirt. It was cute in the morning, but by the time I took a pic it had a few spots on it!

LOVE this face!

Mmmm, corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, bread, green beer & scones!



Whatta difference a year makes! I'm SO upset that I didn't think ahead to bring the green wig to Houston, but those are the same green socks! A little smaller on him now...

Happy Saint Paddy's Day!

Houses!

We have a contract on our house in Hobbs and we just made an offer (that was accepted!!) on a house in Houston! Things are moving....and so are we! WOWZA!We looked and looked and looked for a house in Houston and this was our favorite by far! We had a very specific set of criteria and ended up compromising on a few things (2 story & HOA), but this has a huge yard with gorgeous trees, is on a cul-de-sac, and in a good school zone! Plus, the HOA is not very restrictive (you can have your own mailbox, put up bball hoops, flags, etc.)
YAY

Drew's 1st Haircut!

Well, the time came for our little shaggy guy to get his first haircut! Some may say it was a wee bit overdue. I prefer to think he was going for the Justin Beiber look. He's very stylish for a 13 month old.
My good friend, Andrea, owns a kids hair salon in Katy. I thought we should take Drew there for his first haircut. Matt had other ideas. He really wanted to give Drew his first haircut.

Before we took Drew outside and put him in the highchair, I asked Matt what his plan was for the haircut. When he said, "I don't know," it should've been a red flag. When he came outside with KITCHEN SCISSORS, it should've been a red flag (don't worry, I made him use hair scissors). When I thought about our luck in general when it comes to things like this, it should've been a red flag!
All was going well for the first few snips.
Then, Matt went to make a cut in the front and....swish! Drew swung his head around.
Ooops.
Poor baby Drew.

Then, Matt got gun shy and didn't want to finish trimming the back up. So Drew had SUPER short hair in the front (uneven super short hair in the front) and long scraggles in the back. So, I decided to trim up the back. Right when I was about to make a cut, SWISH again. He moved his head and BAM. Another chunk.



I think his face says it all.

I think he's got Andrea's # on speed dial now...
