First Haircut!

On Saturday Ryan and Evan got their very first haircuts! I have to admit, I was NOT ready for this! Daddy P had been talking about it for awhile now, and I made excuse after excuse why they shouldn't get a haircut. Finally, Daddy P had had enough of my shenanigans. He said, they're going to get a haircut this weekend. What's a mama to do except tag along and bring the camera and ziploc bags for the hair?! (is this the best way to preserve their hair??? I dunno!)

I do have pictures of them actually getting their hair cut; I'll update this post with those pics soon. I gotta say, these two handled their first haircuts like CHAMPS! There were no tears and no squirming. That's not surprising since these kiddos of ours are nothing less than AMAZING! The barber said he'd cut their hair any day! They were the best behaved babies he's ever had! These were taken just after they were done.

Ryan is escaping with his bag of hair...

Evan is munching on his bag of hair!

I must admit, they look so grown up and even-stinkin'-cuter than they did before the haircuts!

While Daddy P got his hair cut the boys and I waited in the waiting room. We did not have a stroller with us. Big mistake...HUGE! I couldn't keep these two still for the life of me. Good thing I could close the waiting room off, so at least they couldn't get out. They pushed chairs all around that little room, tried to knock the gumball machine down, and wanted to pick up every thing they saw on the floor. Let's just say the waiting room of the barber shop and the Peas sans a stroller do not mix! A little boy came into the room and saw them pushing the chairs around and he said to me, you do know that's a video camera right? ROFL! I was sooooo tickled! That little boy was too much. Bless his heart! He helped me straighen up the chairs and Daddy P came and got us just in time.

We spent the rest of the morning going Costco shopping. We snagged their Octoberfest costumes ( that's IF we go this year) and we even saw one of the nurses from the NICU! She kept saying how good they look:) The Peas came home and played on the deck for a little while. I'd say it was a good day:)

Finally, I have to say that I spent the day with a remembering heart as we marked the ninth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. We will never forget those who perished, nor their loved ones.
