audrey's first haircut

so, a week after jack's haircut, i went for one. audrey thought this was great and kept saying she wanted one, too. we thought that after watching jack cry and fuss all during his, she wouldn't want one for a loooooonnnnnnggg time. boy, were we wrong:) just goes to show, as a parent, you never really know what's going on in your kid's head:) audrey had her haircut all planned out- she wanted to go to "the place with the pony and sit on the pony and get my haircut just like guy(jack)":) when we got there, she did sit on the pony, until she told me, "the pony not safe mommy- i sit in the flower car" and ran over to this really girly car and asked, very politely, to be put in. she played until it was her turn. she didn't seem to mind the water being sprayed but she froze when the clips were put into her hair. she was great during the haircut; she sat still, looked down when the stylist asked her to, and happily read curious george books. it was the blow-dry that kind of scared her. then jacob handed her some hair clips to look at and that solved the being scared problem;) she chose two orange butterflies for her hairstyle:) then she and jack both got candies, which made jack happy since he DID NOT want to go inside melonheads:) when we got to the salon, jack just turned around and walked away. it was pretty funny:) jacob had to take him and sammy for a walk while audrey and i were in the salon. guess the salon is going to be a mommy-daughter thing;)
sitting on the "not safe" pony:)
audrey LOVES this car
getting ready for the cut
choosing her hariclips- it was a really difficult decision!
so proud of herself:) she talked about nothing else for the rest of the day- "mommy, i got my hair cut and TWO butterfly clips":)
