Shave and a Hair Cut? No Thanks!

Well, mommy and daddy decided that it was time for me to get my first hair cut. They kept telling me about this place all week, and it sounded like fun. When I got there, I thought maybe they were right. First, I saw Shelli and Brooklyn! I was so excited, and it looked like Brooky was have a good time getting her hair done.

Daddy showed me to the toy area, and I played for awhile, but then I started to get nervous. I made sure to check out what these people were doing, as you can see here in the picture. You will also note how much of a mess my hair was, and why this trip was necessary.

Then, mommy took me over to this nice lady who was making balloon animals. Wow, maybe they were right, this place is pretty cool. I got to pick out what kind of animal I wanted, and of course I chose a puppy. I loved it!

But then, some guy came over and said my name and said he was ready for me. I wonder what that means? Mommy took me over to a chair, and there were ladies blowing bubbles around me and a TV on the counter that was playing Nemo. This seems a little strange....

Then all of sudden this guy thinks he's going to put some sort of cape on me. I don't like this place anymore!

But it gets worse. Then he comes at me with a pointy object, which mommy tells me is going to cut my hair. I was so scared! I started throwing a HUGE fit! I needed to let them know that I wanted to leave RIGHT NOW!

The guy all of a sudden stopped cutting my hair, so I thought I had won the battle. But, then he just has mommy sit down and have me sit on her lap. He starts to mess with my hair all over again. Who is this guy?! I kept looking over at daddy to come save me, but all he could do was take pictures of me.

I finally realized that I wasn't going to get to leave, so I just hugged mama as tight as I could while this guy finished my hair.

After I got home, I realized that it wasn't so bad, and I really liked my new 'do! Here is the finished product, not too bad!

I also have some fun news to share this week. I FINALLY learned how to walk! I have been taking steps here and there, but something finally clicked and now I walk all the time. I still have my balance to figure out, but I'm getting better every day.

I keep reminding everyone how big I am too. Whenever anyone asks me, I put my hands in the air and say 'SO BIG'! I keep putting more words together every day. My new favorite word is snack, but it sounds more like 'nak'. I love to go into the pantry to pick out something and then I bring it to mommy or daddy and repeatedly say 'nak' until they give me some.

Have a good week!
