Haircut

Despite the fact that Owen and I were both sick, we ended up accomplishing a lot today. We braved the cold weather and the crowds and went to Toys R Us to return some stuff. On to the bank and to visit Grandpa W at work. Owen loves going to visit Grandpa at work because all the guys there love him! He walks around there like he owns the place.

Since Owen's hair was getting ridiculously long and shaggy, we finally got it cut. Since he's done so well with his haircuts before, Mike figured this one would be easy. I was thinking it was going to get worse since he's more aware of what's going on around him now. I was definately right on this one! Even a Blue's Clues video playing, animal crackers and sitting in a firetruck did nothing for him. He cried most of the time, but it got cut! He looks so much better now too. Some before and after pics:

After Owen went to bed this evening, Mike and I made santa cookies for Owen's Christmas party tomorrow. For some reason, they didn't turn out as well as they usually do, many santas were decapitated. They taste yummy, but not so attractive.
