It's been a while!

Hi everyone! It's been a while since I last updated you all on the Nail household. Over the past few weeks, I have been busy with football season, Shaun and I competed in the Muddy Buddy again, and Micah got his first real hair cut.

As I started to notice Micah having a hard time seeing because of the hair in his eyes, I realized it was time for a hair cut. As I picked him up from school and drove to the hair salon, I was prepared for the worst with suckers and toys to distract him, but surprisingly, he did great. He sat in the chair with his head down when the stylist told him to, and looked up every time the camera was in his face saying, "Cheese." He was a real natural, and now we can see his cute little face again. Even with mosquito bites, he is still pretty cute. :)

Last weekend Shaun and I competed in the Muddy Buddy. Shaun had his usual partner Phillip, while I went hoping to find someone who needed a partner last minute. Surprisingly there was someone who needed a partner last minute. She was a 15 year old girl whose mom was going to do the run with her, but had gotten sick. She was dressed up as a cow, had a kids bike, and we went by the name of "Utter Destruction." :) As I completed my second mile run and jumped on the bike for my second mile bike, a stick got caught in the wheel and broke the chain, so as if riding a kids bike was not tough enough, I was now running with a broken kids bike. This will definitely be a year I will never forget. Shaun and Phillip did great placing 3rd in their age group.

Happy Fall!!!

Micah is obsessed with the Movie, "Rio." This is probably his third time to watch it in one day, and every time this scene comes on, he is up on his feet and dancing. It is definitely the highlight of our day. PS: He dressed himself!

Happy 4th of July America!!!

Our fourth weekend was spent at Mumzeh's where Micah got to chase "choo choo's" and check out the ladies at the river telling them to "Shake your booty," and asking them"How you doin." He even got his first crush at a German restaurant where he got to hold hands and dance with a girl, who was a few years older then him I might add. What can I say, he likes the older women.

I think the highlight of the trip was actually getting to ride a choo choo. How many people does it take to take one 2 year old to Landa Park to ride a train you ask, well 6 actually. 4 grandparents and 2 parents. :) That's right, Nana, Papa, Mumzeh, and Pappy Nail all loaded up with us to ride the train with Micah. He was pretty much in awe the entire time.

Once we got home on the 4th, we took Micah to see the movie Cars 2. It was his first theater trip and he didn't do too bad. He looked like a pro the first hour with his pop corn and drink, but after that ran out, he was ready to run around. Not sure how the last half of the movie went, but now we know, Micah is not quite ready to sit through a 2 hour movie. :)

It's Official!

Just received my Master in Education Degree in the mail. Whoo Hoo!!!

Happy Father's Day!

Our neighbors decided to clean out their garage and since their kids are getting older, they decided to give Micah their Green Machine. Micah is still not quite big enough to reach the peddles, but Shaun sure is. Micah loved riding on Shaun's shoulders and racing his daddy with his John Deere. There were a few wipe outs when Shaun was showing Micah how to fishtail, but overall it was a great Father's Day gift!!!
