We took Ella to get her first haircut. Yes, she is 2 1/2 and has never even had a trim! It was a very easy, stress-free experience for all of us. We took her to an adorable kids salon called Pigtails & Crewcuts. Ella got to pick which chair she wanted to sit in and she chose the airplane. There was a flat screen TV at her station which kept her attention very well. She really enjoyed steering her airplane as well! The only time she seemed nervous was when the stylist used the hair dryer for 30 seconds. Ella has never had her hair dried, but loves to watch me dry my hair. She kept saying, "um, Mommy.." When I told her excitedly she was drying her hair like mommy she relaxed. I would only let the stylist trim her hair to even it up. The after pic is not that different than her before pics, but I can really see the difference. BT was glad he tagged along because they had TONS of beautiful, cute and fun hair accessories for girls that I could have looked at forever!

Ella and I just spent 3 weeks at grandma's helping her out since she has a "boo-boo" as Ella would say. We enjoyed the quality time with grandma and grandpa! We hope mom/grandma is feeling 100% soon!
Here are some pics of the artist at work in front of grandma's house on one of the few warm days. She had no interest in looking at the camera!
