The First Official Hair Cut! and the wonders of modern day grocery stores.
Ok, so I tried to cut Isaiah's hair myself a few months ago. We put him in the excersaucer, put on a Baby Einstein video and I took out the scissors. Left side, beautiful. Front, perfectly straight. Right side, ....oops. I cut a little too much off of the right side and Eliecer banned me from cutting Isaiah's hair again. Just kidding. But we did decide that an official hair cut would be better before the official one year old pictures. So, I took the advice of my friend Katie, and found a place in Clovis that specializes in kids cuts. Now forget about the booster seat and the promise of a sucker at the end. This place was high tech. There are six stations, three equiped with video games, the other three with DVD players and the kids can choose which game to play or DVD to watch while getting their hair cut. Two stations even have cars the kids can sit in. Isaiah sat in the Taxi cab. Too cute! Here are some pictures of the event, (which is really what I think the occasion merits being called).
The cutting wasn't so bad... Yeah Baby Einstein.
But that trimmer tickled a little too much.
Now, to continue with the amazing things they have for kids now-a-days, we travel to the grocery store. They now have kid cars attached to the front of shopping carts. At our local Savemart there are two, a single and a double. So, even though we just needed milk, dishwashing soap and vanilla ice cream (to eat with all of the peaches we are getting from our peach tree), and we could have easily put those things in a basket; we grab the giant cart with the car in the front. Companies now-a-days are making even the most mundane chores and errands fun for kids.

That looks like quite the haircut experience! Seems like Isaiah was enjoying himself though. We have made Sammy suffer through the haircuts at home so far ... maybe we'll venture out for a real one at some point though!
I can't believe how big he is getting, and so cute! It was fun to see some more pix of you all when Marla and Luke came to visit too!
