First Hair Cut

About a month ago Keaton got his first hair cut (at 5 months).  Many kids don't even have hair at this age but Keaton's got plenty (although a lot less than he was born with).  Keaton's hair is growing in reverse, he was born with a full head of thick hair.  Over the past 5 months it has been falling out, but not evenly.  We finally decided it was time to get rid of the "comb over" that he had developed by 5 months. 

Comb Over: Hairstyle worn by bald or balding men in which the hair on one side of the head is grown long and then combed over the bald area to minimize the display of baldness. Donald Trump is famous for sporting this terrible hairstyle!

Wild Wild West

We just got back from a visit to Montana.  We spent a few days at the An Ri Ra Irish Festival in Butte Montana with my Dad's cousin Rosie. 


Keaton got a shamrock painted on his face and was flirting with the girl who did it.
My dad thinks this sign is pretty cool! We kept telling Rosie she should run for mayor because she knows EVERYONE (she is a principal at a local school).



There aren't many rules in Montana so Keaton got to hang out in a bar and won $11 gambling.

Then we went up to Flathead Lake to my Aunt Joan/Uncle Richard's place (my dad's sister).  This was definitely the nicest house I have ever been in.  So we got some investing advice from Richard and will see if we can make the big bucks in the stock market (I doubt it....)



We went on a hike at Glacier National Park.  Good thing we had Keaton with us to keep us safe from the Grizzly bears!

Keaton found hiking to be so relaxing that he passed out! Once he starts walking he'll discover it's a bit harder.













Keaton was a trooper with all the driving and did pretty good.  Thanks to his great Aunt Claudia for buying him a bunch of new toys to keep him entertained.
