1st Haircut!

Today Riley got her very first haircut. Over the past few months her hair has gone through a major growth spurt and we have reached a point where not only can we pull it up into a single sprout on top, but we can now do pigtails!!!! So why the haircut you may ask? Well, it was starting to get a little uneven and a few pieces were coming close to her eyes so we figured it might be time for a little trim.

"Pre-cut"

We took her to Lollilocks, a children's salon, as we figured this was a job best left to professionals. She did not love her first salon experience, but didn't help that I had to wake her up from a nap to make our appointment.


For those who hadn't heard and maybe wondering from the pictures, Riley got her first major owie last weekend and very visable result are the cuts on her nose and blackish/purplish color around her eyes. While reading books with her daddy last weekend, Riley stood up and took a tumble off of our bed and into the bedside table. The fall along with the trip to the ER was quite the trauma for both baby and mommy & daddy, but she was such a tough little cookie. She is already so much better and looking forward to the traditional milkshake that comes with your first blackeye her Gigi has promised her.

Go Rockies!



Yesterday Riley and I went to our first Rockies game of the 2009 season with our friends Katy and James. What perfect day for a baseball game!



Riley was a little bored with the 6th inning and decided to take a little rest, good thing she had her mommy and Gigi to hold up her sunshield. We even got to meet Dinger!

Riley had a great time at the ballpark and loved all the action and people. I can't wait to take her to some more games this summer!
