3-16-13 Emery's first hair cut!

Emery turns one and a half years old tomorrow! To celebrate we are taking him to get his first haircut!

When we arrived it was a scene out of finding Nemo. You know when all the fish are trying to get free, and the pelican is flying around the room and the tools are going off and the girl is screaming and the dentist is yelling....all the while there is a kid in the waiting room hearing those noises in horror that he is next to see the chaos in that room....yeah, it was like that.

There was a kid getting a hair cut, and it sounded like they were cutting off his fingers, slowly, one by one. Emery waited, patently, in pure terror. 

We took the waiting time to show him all the cool things in this shop, and to take his mind off his now impending doom. 


Once he was in the chair he was very unsure about this whole thing. 


Then they put this weird cape thing on...







Then sweet lady gave him a toy and started the process...it was not so bad after all ! 







"what is she doing back there mom? do I look ok?"










Even on the parts that I know were kinda uncomfortable, Emery was a champion. He winced some, but no tears, no fuss, no problems! 


Man that boy had a lot of hair! 








After the process was over, Emery was as handsome as ever!!! He was showing off to everyone in the lobby. 


Then, as a prize, he got a card that he puts into a machine and a toys comes out.










And he got a toy duck!!! Here is our handsome almost one and a half year old and his new toy duck! What a stud! 



Because he was so good we went next door and got smoothies as a treat! 






 Emery was so sweet and he shared his smoothie with his new friend, Duck.



Here is the before and after! Handsome long and handsome short. 


When we got home we took advantage of the lovely day and did some work on the garden.






We said hi to scrappy, longingly watching from "the inside".



Then we ate some awesome pasta for dinner! Emery likes pasta, as you can tell.




Overall, it was a great day. We hit a milestone (1st haircut), ate together, and played together. Yep, that is a good day for me!

Thanks for reading!

Love
