Girl's First Haircut!

It been a pretty typical couple weeks since the last post. lots of work, a bit of play, and Sara was sick last weekend... seems to be catching a bunch of stomach viruses this summer (yay for us :( ).

Anyway, D. and I saw Dark Knight about a week ago... Dark is the operative word, but a very good movie. This week I turned in my tenure package and got in my annual 9 holes of golf... actually was somewhat decent, and got off the course before too many bad habits could sink in!

Otherwise, reasonably uneventful here. Work and play.... the house is being painted (exterior) next week which will be great to finally have done.... Tomorrow D. and I are headed to see a baseball game... vs. the Twins no less.

So, other than for the exciting title of this post that's about it...

Sara has increasingly been talking about going to the barber shop and getting a haircut this week. She came along the last time I got one and she had soaked it all in. So, when we got up and moving this morning we headed down to the corner and got her hair cut for the first time. We figured a barber shop would be great for the first time as fast as they can be... and it turned out great. Sara was a big girl about it, we had prepped her all week that she would have to sit still, and she did well, and listened as well as she ever does too. Just got it a little bit trimmed and got it out of her face. Regardless, it was a fun experience, went well, and looks good too. They even made out a first haircut certificate for us, which was very nice.



Getting started!



finished product, I pulled this plum out of the bag at the farmer's market and just started eating while listening to the Steel Drums
