1st Haircut!

At 18 Months, we finally bit the bullet and took Hans to get his first haircut. Hans' hair, although long, was such a trademark to me. I feel like it became part of his personality. I loved to see it sort of flop around as he ran every where he went. And the little curls around his head were just the best! After 18 months though it was just getting a little too long and a little bit out of control.

Tom was finishing up some work on the lawn that morning and I needed to finish getting ready so I turned on Sesame Street on tv and came out of the bathroom to find Hans like this..remote control and all! I think he knew he was in for a busy day and just wanted to relax ;)

Waiting so patiently for his turn.

Hans had a lot more fun than most of these photos would lead you to believe. He didn't really want to sit down for the hair cut so he's just sort of whining to get up and move around. The hairstylist worked great with him though and kept moving fast and kept Hans distracted for most of the time. There were also little kid TVs at each station but it didn't keep Hans' attention for very long.

We like a little bit of a longer look on Hans, it just seems to fit his personality more. So, we decided to give it a little bit of a clean up and trim. She also thinned out the hair on top of his head a little bit which should help him keep cool during these hot temps!
Before we left, he got to put his Adventure Pass into this machine to get a prize! He was excited that something came out of the machine but then politely returned the prize before we left ;). Guess he's not too keen on plastic hand clappers that don't really work..who can blame him?

And, as promised, we let Hans play in the fountains before heading home.

He's looking pretty "fly" if you ask me! Still as handsome as ever!!!

10 Minutes to a room you'll love

I'm wondering what my husband will think when he asks me "What did you do today?" and my answer won't involve shopping! Wait, I take that back, it DID involve shopping....shopping from my house (Nester Style)! The Nesting Place has been having a series on how to re-vamp rooms in your house in just 10 minutes. She encourages you to find things around your room and just add some changes here and there. I was inspired and decided to rise and shine early Saturday morning (with the help of some snow blowers outside) and apply these strategies to our ever so desperate bedroom.  I have really neglected decorating our bedroom until about 10 minutes ago so please don't judge the before pictures!  Keep in mind that I'm NOT finished yet and I may just end up going shopping OUTSIDE of the house for a few things. However, this 10 minute make-over has made our room just a bit more cozy!! Step 1 : Make the Bed  *Before* *After* Step 2: Personalize it.  Create a tables

We had the big 20 week ultrasound today and decided to invite the family over that evening for a gender reveal! Tom and I found out during the ultrasound and kept it a secret (which was super hard to do, even for a few hours!) until we had our family over. We found this really cute idea on how to "reveal" your babies gender from our friends here . We made cupcakes And inside of the cupcakes we filled it with colored frosting (pink for a girl, blue for a boy...not telling yet, wait for it....) Hans was so excited for everyone to get there (see? it was even hard for Hans to keep the secret!). He ran and got daddy's shoes and was putting them on by the door. Everyone chose a plate and a cupcake and we went into the living room to bite into it together... And...... IT'S A GIRL!!!!! Hans is already learning how to blame things on his little sister...tsk tsk. Hans, we totally saw you eat the cupcake, silly! We missed a lot of family members that really wanted to be the

I did it!

Last night, we whipped up this shirt for Hans from an old t-shirt of Tom's that was in a rag pile. We used this tutorial from the blog I mentioned a few days ago, MADE . Even though it was my first time making a clothing item (I made a little jewelry bag a few weeks ago to re-fresh my sewing skills) post high school home ec, I'm super happy with how it turned out. The tutorial is referred to the "90 minute shirt" but it took a little longer with that. =-) I'm completely inspired to make more cute things for my lil guy!!
