A day of firsts

We did it!  Daddy was off today so we told Liam we were going on an adventure and took off for Vancouver this morning.  I wanted to take him to Lil' Snippers for his first haircut, it's such a cute place.  I wanted to make his first haircut a fun one.  Or at least try to!  He was so happy when we walked in, they have a super fun play area and he was loving it.  And then they called his name.  I think it reminded him of being at the doctor and he freaked out.  He was so scared and started crying hysterically even though there was a fun police car for him to sit in.  It took about 10 minutes of me holding him and the lady blowing bubbles and pulling out cars for him to play with before he would let me set him inside of it.  It was all fun after that, especially when he discovered the police car had a siren and lights!  So cute.  I didn't want to totally take the baby look away so we just got it trimmed up.  A little bit at a time, baby steps!  

The first cut!.

 After Costco, we took him for his first carousel ride at Jantzen Beach.  It's free to ride all month, so I thought it would be a fun thing to do.  He loved it!  A great way to celebrate his first haircut and a fun (and free!) family outing.  It's been a long time since we've been on an outing, everything has been so busy with the house remodel/work/school.  It was a perfect day!
