Another First

Last week, Justin and I broke down and finally got Jack's hair cut. We kept hoping that it would grow in with curls. Instead, Jack looked completely disheveled unless he had sunscreen in his hair - at which point he had greasy, curly, disheveled hair.

We sucked it up and took Jack to a local children's salon. Yes, I'm sure that these mostly exist in NYC - but what else were we to do?

There were tears and a few screams, but it wasn't as bad as expected. The result is a much cuter coif that makes Jack look a year older. Wow - is our little man growing up fast!

the before

not your average salon chair - there was also a tv to watch the movie of your child's choice (we went with Little Einstein's)

things started a bit rough

settled down once he realized a cartoon was playing

the after - our little boy is growing up!

Echo echo echo...

We welcomed a new pet to our home: Echo, a lovely red Betta. The name is all Spence, though he did pose a few other suggestions. Spence: I'm going to name it Bluey. Me: the fish is red. Spence: then I'll name it Reddy. Me: Let's stick with Echo. That's a cool name.

Sunday Afternoon in the Park

Could be a well known play, but in this case, it's the new Yankee Stadium. I picked up tickets Thursday afternoon for today's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. This is the first game we've been to at the new stadium. The new stadium is very nice - much more in line with other new stadiums. There is a lot more space in the walkways - more food options - and much better bathrooms! The latter being most important to me right now. Our tickets were in left field in the upper deck. All in all, decent seats - but the sun made them a bit unbearable. The game started off slow - I mean slow. The first two innings took almost 2 hours. We were roasting in the sun! Eventually, we decided to walk around to check out the rest of the stadium and get out of the sun. The game got much better after we starting moving. Eventually, we ended up on the first level watching the game from the walkway. The pregnancy bump paid off, because one of the ushers in this area let us sit down in the shade
