My Valentines




Saturday we spent some of Valentines Day at the zoo. We decided to take Olivia's wagon instead of the stroller this time. After Luis took her out to see the first animals Olivia wouldn't get back in it! She ended up walking more than half of the zoo. Thankfully, it wasn't too crowded while we were there. The first time we took her to the zoo she was more interested in all of the people that were there. This time she really liked watching all of the animals. She even thought one of the statues of a lions was real and we had to stop so she could look at them.
Later in the day Luis grilled steaks for dinner. I think Olivia is turning into a meat lover. She really liked them!
I couldn't have had a better day with my two Valentines! The roses and premium m&ms were icing on the cake :)
Olivia also went to a Valentines Day party earlier in the week. One of the girls in my mom's group was nice enough to host 50 people at her house for the party. With running around with so many kids I had no time for pictures. Sorry!

Cool Cut

Today we took Olivia for her first haircut. We weren't sure how she would do so we decided to take her to a kid friendly place(Cool Cuts for Kids) for the first time. She sat on my lap and they popped in a Blues Clues DVD for her. She didn't watch too much tv because she was too distracted, but overall I think she did great. Not too much squirming around. And I didn't think it was possible, but I think she looks even cuter with bangs! Olivia's favorite part of the whole experience was getting a lollipop at the end. She was not too happy with me when I took it away. I think you could have heard her crying in Michigan. Here are some before and after shots.
