My First Hair Cut!

Ok, so it's not my first hair cut, but it is my lil girl's first hair cut!  To be honest, I was super duper scared about it.  I was afraid she would cry or not sit still and she would end up with a crooked hair line. I was afraid that she would throw a fit and not even get into the seat.  Man, was I worried for no good reason!  Mills was WONDERFUL when she got her hair cut.  She didn't cry, she sat still and she had a huge smile throughout the whole cut!  I didn't get a fancy cut for her or anything, I did just get her bangs trimmed and her hair cut to her shoulders.  I wanted to cut all the baby hair off and make it all even.  Morgan kept telling her that she was going to get a hair cut like Dora. haha I think that is what she liked about it.  Either way, she was amazing and I completely underestimated her!  It is a lil nerve wracking for any parent whose kid is going through their "first" anything.  More often then not, I'm sure most parents are worrying for no reason.  Now Mills asks to get her hair cut all the time!  Funny lil girl!

 

I was so focused on her getting her hair cut that I didn't even get a pic of the end result!  DUMB!  I have other pics of her with her stylish new do!

 I dont know why he always makes that face :p

Birthday at the Beach...

Sorry its been so long.  We had a long hiatus in CA due to the tsunami.  Well we've been home for almost 2 and a half weeks now and boy it feels good to be home.  Not that I do not LOVE California, but its just nice to be home.  Anyway yesterday we celebrated Amelia's BFF's Birthday yesterday at Kadena Marina!! Unfortunately it wasn't the sunniest day but we still had lots of fun.

Lana was turning 2 years old and had a Dora themed party.  Dora was everywhere from the table cloth to the cupcakes, it was a cute party.  Plus Amelia loves Dora so she recognized her right away.  Lana had lots of treats and delicious food.  The true highlight of the party wasn't the adorable decorations, or the bouncy house or the beach, it was the DIRT!  Lana and Amelia bathed themselves in the dirt.  It wouldn't be my first choice for fun, but the girls thoroughly enjoyed themselves playing with the beach toys in the dirt.  I dont think I've ever let Amelia get so dirty.  But I didn't want to be the uptight mom.

Once we could pull the girls away from the dirt..... they got to enjoy the bounce house too. haha Well so did the adults.  Its a work out for sure!  Amelia had fun doing summer saults and bouncing!  I have to admit that the bouncy house was too much fun and I am a firm believer that you are never too old to jump in one!  All in all it was a great day, with good food, good people and good fun.  Amelia was pooped by the end of the day.  We got home I gave her a bath and she ate a small dinner and was out by 7:30pm.    Now I got to get planning on Mills' bday in 2 months!!!
