A Haircut... Finally!

Not that he didn't need it sooner, but we waited to give Logan his first haircut until he turned two. We wanted to wait until my mom was in town so she could help us both do the cutting as well as hold him still if needed. He actually did really well and didn't need held down, thanks to a high chair and the movie Cars. Here are some before and after pictures of Logan's hair.

When we parted it we kind of had to tuck/comb it behind his ears so it wouldn't look so long.



Yes, on top his hair was nearly six inches long and you know I styled it like this all the time... ;)


Looking sharp :)


It took less than 24 hrs for me to go into shock over his haircut. The change seemed so dramatic to me, it felt like my little boy grew up over night. It was good though because if we'd waited much longer, he may have been mistaken for a little girl... ;)

Logan's 2nd Birthday

Just over a week ago we celebrated Logan's 2nd birthday, which fell nicely on the long President's Day weekend, making it possible for some family from both sides to come in town to celebrate with us. My dad lent us his handy man skills while he was here and helped us build one Logan's gifts, a set of PVC pipe soccer goals complete with nets. We were pretty excited to make these for Logan since he really seems to be liking soccer, but little did we know that when pushed together they would double nicely as a fort. It was a pretty exciting discovery for us, especially since it's been so cold outside that we've been spending most of our time indoors. To go with his soccer goals, we made him a matching soccer ball cake which was kind of fun. Among the other gifts he received was the movie Cars, which I love but have now nearly memorized since we watch it on average AT LEAST twice a day. Overall we had a blast playing with family and Logan's new toys. It was a great birthday but we sure miss everyone now that they're gone!
