A Day at the Park and Mustache March

Yesterday was one of the first beautiful days of Spring and the McCall's went to Falls Park to enjoy the weather. We let Bryson out of the stroller to walk and play in the grass. He immediately spotted a little girl about his age and started heading toward her. Of course she had food, so I think that was what he was really after. So, what is Mustache March and what does it have to do with a day in the park, you ask? Here's the story: A guy that Marshall works with came up with the brilliant idea of growing mustaches for the month of March. Marshall claims that this is a real thing that men do in March, but I have never noticed an abundance of mustached men in March. So on March 1 Marshall began growing a mustache. I have hated it from the beginning. Yesterday was March 18 and his mustache had fully grown in. I have to admit that I was a little embarrassed to be seen in public with him. Going back to our day in the park...I think he scared off the little girls parents that we met with his mustache! Needless to say Marshall shaved his mustache this morning, thank goodness! I didn't think I could make it 11 more days with a mustache man.

So the last time I posted something on my blog was 7 months ago! I guess I haven't had a lot of interesting news to share. But now Bryson is 1 year old and really is doing and growing so much! He amazes me everyday with how he is changing and showing me how smart he is. He is starting to walk and becoming more brave with every step he takes. He is also starting to communicate (without saying anything) so well. He really understands things I tell him and ask him. I couldn't find his pacifier in his crib and I asked him "Bryson, where is your pacifier"? He pointed behind his crib, and sure enough there it was. Maybe I'm easily amazed by the things he says and does, but I'm loving every minute. Here are a few recent pics and videos of our little guy.
