First Haircut and More!

This week has been a little more tame than last week. Not quite as much going on. We didn't even leave the house on Tuesday! So, Davin has really dry skin, ectopic dermatitis (in med speak). It is especially bad on his scalp. Poor kid is constantly scratching his head until it bleeds. I haven't known what to do. Lately I have been rubbing baby oil on his head to help keep it moisturized, but it's hard to work through all his hair. Also it makes him look disgusting, like he hasn't had a bath all week. I decided we needed to cut some of that hair off so we could get to his scalp a little more easily. My neighbor cuts hair and said she would do it for me, so yesterday morning my little baby got his first haircut!

Here he is looking a little nervous before she even started cutting!
He was really good about getting his hairs trimmed, but about halfway through his cut he got a little fussy. He was distracted by the water bottle and made it to the end happily enough.
Isn't he handsome? I think his hair looks so great! I'm glad we did a cut, even if it was for medical purposes.
I also had a first: I decorated a cake that actually turned out cute! For our Young Women (our church youth group that I work with) activity on Tuesday night we learned some basic cake decorating techniques and then decorated little cakes. I found a really adorable caterpillar cake that was made with fondant in a book, but I decided to see if I could do it with just decorator's frosting. I thought it turned out really adorable. Unfortunately it didn't make it home looking quite so cute. It took a spill.
Yesterday after Davin's haircut we headed to the Planetarium with Dawnie and Mason. Weston liked it a lot this time. He sat through the entire "Secret of the Cardboard Rocket" movie and enjoyed it. Then he had a blast being a "Mars guy" and jumping off the rocks on the display of what the Martian landscape is like. Here is his cheesy Mars Guy grin.
Today I am home with 3 kids. Sigh. It is always a looong day. It's especially difficult now because Davin will attack the baby if I don't keep a really close eye on everyone. I am looking forward to a fairly quiet weekend home to get some things cleaned up and accomplished.
