Big Day For Our Big Girl!

Well today was our first day of library class! So exciting because this is really the first technical class I have braved taking Lorelei to. They have them for the younger children so she could have gone last winter but I was afraid of her screaming the entire time. We will have this class every Thursday at 9:30, so looking forward to that to do this winter. As you can see she was excited to go, and then we have her working on a lock puzzle just before class started. There is an area in the children's section with puzzles and things like that for the kids to enjoy. I have to say the class was not exactly what I had pictured... but I guess we will see how it improves over time. We sang a lot of songs, which is always good. :) Lorelei didn't want to just sit... but she wasn't the worst behaved there. :)

Then we ran errands to Sam's Club and Food Lion, came home and enjoyed the warmer weather on the balcony and in the mean time got the hot water in our shower finally fixed! We are spoiled having two showers so normally don't have to move Lorelei's toys etc all the time. Then Lorelei finally took a two hour nap! She has taken only 1 hr naps basically the whole week so I was thrilled and got so much more done around the house. And THEN...

LORELEI'S FIRST HAIRCUT!!!

I wasn't sure if it would work out to go this afternoon but we had been thinking this over for a while. I was afraid I would chicken out but we went for it! After her nap we went to Pigtails and Crew Cuts for Lorelei's first official haircut. It was starting to look pretty mangy so we just needed to get it cleaned up. The lady was very very nice and Lorelei did a wonderful job! After she was done the lady said "Well she is a quiet one."... now we know that isn't normally true, but that gives you an indication of how well behaved she was. :) Officially a success on all accounts!
