Well, it's been an exciting weekend and it's not over yet!! Last night Peter got off work early enough for us to go to Rivergate Mall and get Isabella's Santa picture made. I don't go there after dark, but anyway, she talked and talked to Santa and liked him, but she liked the TRAIN beside Santa much better. So, when it came time for her picture to be made, she got so MAD! As you can tell from her very unhappy little face. After the picture I bet you can guess what we did next? Took a train ride. I got in there with her while Peter took pictures. She was very happy with that decision.
After the train ride we went to the little play area and then to the carousel rides. It all took about 30 minutes and we left to come home. She's such a little stinker. I'll have to post some of the most interesting things about Isabella one day. I'm trying to keep them all in my head so I can remember them. But they're too funny.
This morning was my cousin, Curtis', birthday party. We went to his house and had all kinds of fun with the family. Isabella fell asleep on the way there so I laid her down in the twins room and she slept for an hour. That gave me time to talk to everybody! I finally woke her up and she had so much fun. Especially with the balloons, cake and ice cream. The loves of her life! Curtis is 11 and getting so big! We managed to get all the young little ones on the steps to get a picture of everybody. I was so glad we did. Who knows when we'll get a chance to do that again. Harrison fell asleep shortly before the picture was taken. Too cute!!
I decided I needed to go to the H'ville Walmart to look for a fireplace screen and some groceries so off we went. I was hoping to get Isabella's haircut by my sister Angie, but I wasn't able to get in to see her. We've been going back and forth for a while about an appt. time, but couldn't manage to get together. Isabella's hair was a mess! I was desperate to get her hair cut so I had a thought: Wonder if Walmart has a hair place? I know what you're thinking: You are getting your baby's 1st haircut done at Walmart? I know, so redneck of me, but like I said, I was so desperate! It was so stringy and I was tired of waiting, so yes, I did get her haircut at Walmart. Gosh, I know, so lame, but what's a desperate mommy to do? It turned out really cute. She layered the back and trimmed the bangs and sides. Finally, a head of hair that looks healthy! The only way I could get her to cooperate was to leave her in the buggy while she played in the candy bucket. Here's a few pics of that adventure.
