Our first days

Me being a hairstylist this kids had no chance!!!! In the month that we had him he had 4 haircuts!!!!!! Hey after the last haircut he wasn't whining anymore about it hurting!!! Lol he came to us with not that many clothes and everything was so abrupt he was in 2 different homes in 2 days! (not because of him or foster parents) we were his only foster parents. ISo the first day I had to work at the salon so i needed that car seat so my in laws came over and met him then i had to work at the salon so i took him with me and plus everyone wanted to meet him. So he got his first haircut his hair hadn't been cut for about 4 months so he got it cut and met all the ladies in the salon and they spoiled him!!! They helped a lot with clothing that we didn't have to buy! Then my mom wanted to meet him so before then we had to buy some clothes and of course a swimming suit cause we were going to do a lot of swimming. Then we met my mom for lunch and he played on the playground at chick fil a. Then after that we had to meet his caseworker to make sure he is doing ok so we met her and she was surprised he did so well his first night then we went swimming and he met a new friend who they will also be fostering soon. She was super excited to meet him. Oh I had to buy floaties cause xavior did not know how to swim (three weeks into swimming he pretty much could swim without his floaties!!!!! I am a proud mama that I could teach someone how to swim (I should have realized I could since I was on my hs swim team )) needless to say he had a very busy day!! Michael had to work late that night so when he came home xavior was asleep so michael comes home and he opens his bedroom door and goes in to check on him. How cute is that!!!! The whole time we had him every weekend I would help take care if michaels grandma since she was bed ridden and what a special experience that was!!! So our first weekend I brought him with me while I watched grandma and then that Sunday michael took him to church!!!! I was so sad cause I wanted to see him go! He did great and michael told me he stayed with him for a little bit to make sure he didn't get scared!! Hahahaha this kid never got scared. Then michael went to go check in on him to see if he was doing ok!! I love it!! Michael and xavior were buddies the whole time but he knew who was boss he knew who to come to for things lol. I love and miss that kid so much. He would flash this beautiful smile all the time.
