New Haircut, New Outfit

There isn't much better then getting a great haircut and a new outfit to make you feel good. Well I guess I am speaking for myself, Chloe could care less! But she'll care one day and I look forward to it!




Haircut courtesy of my favorite hairstylist, Lori Holloran. The outfit is from Janie and Jack, you can see the shirt and shorts by clicking on the words. When I was in MD last weekend I went to the store and found some sale items. I felt like their stuff was not practical for a baby, but as Chloe gets older I am really loving their clothes, but you have to hit the sale because otherwise it is overpriced. I was going to continue to make a little list of a few things that I also love, but it got way too long! Check out the the Little Beachcomber Collection and the Pink Boat Shoes. LOVE IT!

Chloe's New Pixie Cut

BEFORE

AFTER

No smiles for me in these photos today, but the haircut turned out great. She got this cute pixie cut to even all the random pieces that were growing out. I took video, but of course, blogspot is giving me problems again. She was pretty good, she sat in my lap and watched video while swatting away Lori's hand here and there. Luckily there was no crying.

On Holiday: Day Five

Back to our holiday posts.  I love calling it a holiday rather than a vacation.  We spent the day in Dublin and met up with Chad's Mom's Cousin who lives about 30 minutes outside of Dublin.  He still has quite a bit of extended family there.  

We started our day walking around town.

Why don't you see flowers being sold outside like this in the U.S.?

Having some fun at a souvenir shop.

Chad's Guinness Girl.

Meeting Etna and Michael at Trinity College.  Chloe was passed out under the jacket. You can see her little feet dangling.

After Trinity College we headed on a bus tour.

I love these houses downtown with the colorful doors and the ivy growing along them.

Ireland's White House

After the tour Etna and Michael treated us to a very nice dinner and we got to meet Lillian and Nolan which I am not sure if they were related to Chad or not.  Trying to pay attention to tours, people talking, Chloe sleeping, Chloe eating, and Chloe running, I get a little fuzzy.

This has really got me thinking

Tell me what you think after watching this?

Susan's Birthday Cake

My latest efforts at cake decorating.



Icing on a spoon = Quiet Baby = Mom that can get this cake done

Uncle Dan's Influence

She learned to point to her nose, but when she did she would stick her finger up her nose.  She learned this just in time for our trip to England.  When Uncle Dad saw this he couldn't stop laughing and he taught her to stick both fingers up there.  Now she just does it randomly to try and make you laugh.  I have no clue how I am going to undo this one!

Father's Day - a bit late

We celebrated Father's Day a week early, right before we left for our trip. My theme was "King for a Day."  Chloe and I made homemade crowns for Grandpa and Daddy. 

King Dad still had to change diapers that day, I didn't give him a break from that!
