Hairy Situation!
I have to admit, I am worried. I am not sure what will become of Steven's hair. Poor baby has his daddy's curls but really only in the back...but on the top and sides it is straight! Ok, so the straight part has a little body to it but nothing like the CURLS in the back. I would like for the sweet mess to get a hair cut but daddy says NO...and grandma and grandpa too :-) But I am warning everyone now, the first mention of a mullet and off it goes!!!! I really must post a pic of it. It cracks me up and makes me nervous all at once. What if it stays this way? Any suggestions????

Bad, bad blogger!
No excuses other than cannot find the time to put the thoughts on to the paper or in this case on to the blog. The month of March was a busy one but a fun and productive one!
So here is a brief summary for each of us:
First up, Miller - where do I begin? I really have a hard time accepting the fact that he is almost 7, seems like 47! Ok, the reality is that he is the most serious but sweet and funny little man. He cracks me up but drives me nuts...I have never ever heard of a kid worried about being late like Miller. He will ask what time we are leaving for school starting at 7pm the night before. He must know that being part "Moore" he is likely to run late with age. Yes, I will admit it and I blame my father, ha! Miller has also lost another tooth. This time he lost it on his dad's watch. According to his dad, Miller had to write a letter to the tooth fairy since he couldn't find the tooth. In fact, Miller wasn't even aware that he lost his tooth until his dad asked what happened. Needless to say, it is a good chance he swallowed it. I cannot help but laugh at the thought of that. Next up for Miller is a field trip to the zoo and baseball should be starting soon where the games also resemble a zoo. Oh and of course summer is quickly approaching.
On to the Sweet Mess - well he is 9 months old and unlike his brother, his teeth are coming. Two bottom and two top! He is also into EVERYTHING! As I have told many people lately...I did not baby proof the house for Miller. Oh how we need deadbolts for cabinets, football helmet and pads for sharp corners and hard floors and 10 ft fences for restricted areas. He is a SWEET MESS! He is also quite possibly the loudest crawler ever. You can hear him coming a mile or room away. I also appreciate the speed the little thing can crawl at. He can go from zero to fast in no time. Speed Crawler! But I have no desire for him to start walking even though I feel and fear he might start that before 12 months. As for his health, he is doing GREAT! I am scared to admit this but he just might be growing out of the blood pressure problem. His bp remains about the same as it has for several months but we have not changed any dosages since December but he has certainly grown since then. I do not want to get my hopes up but it will continue to be on my prayer list. We recently had an appointment at TCH and we were given a hall pass until July!!!! So that means cardiologist in May and nothing in June. Hard to believe that June, he will turn 1 and it will be the first month without a doctor's appointment. I know that he has to go for a 12 month well visit but I will schedule that for early July just to have one month off. He deserves that :-)
Now to David - in case you haven't heard, it is crawfish season. David was in his own personal heaven on Good Friday where he boiled 7 sacks of crawfish. He really hasn't had the opportunity to boil like he would like considering we would have to give away our first born to pay for them but since the price is coming down, I believe that the sound of propane roaring is in my future. He also bought a boat, I say he bought a boat because according to Miller it is David's boat and I just get to ride in it. Anyway, we did buy a bay boat from his aunt and uncle and look forward to catching some fish, some rays and some crabs this summer.
Finally to Me - well work has been crazy busy and we are having the best month than we have had in more than a year and a half. I seem to be aging with every file. But I must admit, I love looking up and seeing that it is 5 and I didn't stop all day. It sure beats twiddling my thumbs. And do you remember the jury summons I mentioned awhile back? Well guess who was selected???? Yep, me on a second degree murder trial. The only good thing about it, I get a two year pass on jury duty. It was not a fun experience and I am very thankful it is over with.
Well I think that about sums us up for the month of March. I hope to get some pictures posted soon...but not likely tonight!
Hope everyone has a great Wednesday!
