Dava & Bo on the beach




Jason, Dava and Bo
The waves were unusually big for that beach . . . water was pretty cold when you are used to the heated kiddie pools! Bo thought it was pretty neat though. He loved the water coming up on his feet.



Grandpa Butch taught Bo the word Bird and how he points to all the birds in the sky . . .




The sand was really warm even though the air was cool. It felt good to little Bo's feet!

Jason and his dad Butch

Jason and Bo . This is the view from our room.


Bo heading into the pool. There were over 4 kid pools and most of them had 0 entry. He just LOVED it!!!



Jason, Dava, and Bo at the Atlantis . . . on our way to the pools.




Jaosn and Bo. It got cloudy one day and was overcast . . . still was low 70s but felt cooler to us. That's why some of the pics we have jackets on!

Bo's 1st Haircut


Bo had his 1st Haircut today! He's officially a "BIG BOY"!!! My friend, Lyndsay Thomas cut it at our house. She teaches at the Aveda Institute at Jordan Creek and cuts at the Jordan creek salon too. Her dad, Lon, a good friend of ours held Bo . . . Bo loves Lon. He kept him still! Bo did cry at all . . . It was great! Thanks Lyndsay!!!
Keep your eye on our blog . . .we leave for the Bahamas on Saturday!













Bo's 1st Haircut

Bo's First Haircut
















Bo had his first haircut today . . . Lyndsay a friend of ours cut it. She teaches at the Aveda Institute in West Des Moines, and cuts hair at the Aveda salon. Her dad, Lon Thomas, a good friend of ours held Bo. Bo sat so still for it . . . Lyndsay was amazed! I only had to hold his head once for the "ears" portion. It's not a drastic change, but I can tell! sigh:-) Guess that means he's a big boy now "officially"!





We're leaving for the bahamas soon so check back for more great pictures of Bo in the ocean!

Bo in the Snow
















Bo really enjoyed getting outside today. It got up in the high 30s today . . . felt sooo warm. We got his sled out and pulled him around the neighborhood. He enjoyed touching the snow and wasn't happy when he had to come inside!

JANUARY 2009
















There hasn't been much to do this January! It's been soooo cold here in IA. We've tried to have some fun inside. One thing Bo loves is to "type" on our computers so Aunt Julie got him a keyboard of his very own! Needless to say he's loving it. He also loves getting into the cabinet and shutting the door. He had some friends over recently to play and we've gone to the mall and played in the kiddie land and on the carousel which he absolutely would do nonstop if we let him! Bo can say what, hot, dog, mama, dad, and dada . . . everything he's not suppose to to touch is "hot" . . . :)
