Lauren's first haircut!!




Yesterday was a big day at our house. Lauren got her first haircut. I made appointments for us to both go to my salon together. When we first got there she was a little nervous. I had her sit on my lap while I had my haircut. My hairdresser talked to her about how we have to get our haircut or we will end up like Rapunzel. Lauren said "yeah we don't want them to use our hair like a ladder." Once it was her turn they put her in an ice cream decorated cape and sat her on her own seat. She had a serious face for most of the haircut. I couldn't read her face to tell if she was happy, scared, nervous. I kept asking her if she was having fun and she would smile. Once the haircut was over I was able to find out that she LOVED it. She said it was like princesses getting their hair done. She asked if we could get our haircut everyday. That made me so happy. The only thing I didn't think through was the fact I took her to a fancy place to get her haircut and now going forward I don't think she will settle for less! After the haircut we stop by Krispy Kreme for a donut. It was great!

Gabe and Poppy


Here is a picture of our big boy with his Poppy. This is a picture from our trip to Lewis Ginter. We went with G, Poppy, Anika, Maya, and Alexis. It was the perfect day. This is the only picture I took that day. I think now that I have two I will be getting fewer and fewer pictures taken.

Our preview to when she is a teenager




Brian and I can not believe how fast Lauren is growing up. Sometimes we see her in a certain outfit or doing something that we think a teenager would do and can't believe our eyes.
