First haircut

My cousin Jennifer came over today and gave Austin his first hair cut. Thank goodness as it was getting so long and shaggy!! The haircut went pretty good, just a little fussing, but Jennifer was prepared and brought a squirt bottle which kept him pretty entertained for the most part.
The finished product.....dont mind my nastiness it was early:):)

Not sure about the haircut at this point

Not happy!!

All smiles so far
ready for this haircut to be over:):)

First trip to the zoo...

Nina and papa (my mom and dad) and my sister and her family came down to omaha this weekend for a little swimming and a trip to the zoo. It was the first time my parents and Austin had ever been. It was quite a long day, we walked the zoo for over 5 hours, but the kids all did pretty good and I guess we all got a good workout:):) We got to see all the animals, ride the skyfari, have a picnic at lunch and even enjoy a little ice cream on our way home. Austin was a little trooper, he only had one outburst about 1:00 when he was super tired from missing both of his naps. But he quickly fell asleep and took a little cat nap, but woke up just in time to enjoy some ice cream:):) Thanks Nina and Papa for taking us all to the zoo, it was a blast!!
