Em's 1st hair cut

We took Emry to cookie cutters for her first hair cut. It is the cuttest place for kids. First she was able to pic out a DVD to watch(they had a tv and dvd player at each station). Then they tried to let her ride in a darling little tin car for the haircut, but she wasn't grooving on that so we just sat her on Michaels lap.
She wasn't really sure if she wanted to go through with the haircut, but then the stylist offered her a sucker, and Emry was on board for ANYTHING!





She just laughed and laughed when she got her hair blown dry

Tonight

Tonight michael was trying to get Emry to put on her pajamas but she just wasn't too enthused about it. Then instead of losing his patience with her he put all of the clothes she wore that day on his head. She LOVED this! He was able to then slip her pajamas on her without her even noticeing. Watching him do this reminded me of the 90-10 principle video lauren had on her blog. If you didn't see it, it talks about how we don't have control over a lot of the things that happen to us in life, we only have control on how we react to them. This has left a huge impression on me. Michael could have gotten mad at Emry and forced her pajamas on her tonight and she would have gone to bed in tears and we would have gone to bed feeling guilty, or he could have done what he did and we can now go to bed peacefully. Thank-you michael, I love you!!

I can't believe that we have been in our house for a month already. The time has just flown by. Now that we have the Internet I can blog again, yay:)
I got to visit my family in Kansas last month and loved it. We went to the zoo a couple of football games and I had my best visit to the state fair in my WHOLE LIFE!!! I love you Mom and Dad! Thank you for being the best parents in the world! Thank-you dad for wrestling with my girls and thank-you mom for making me laugh until I couldn't breathe and had tears in my eyes. I miss you guys so much already!
