Give me a head with HAIR!
House full of hippies no longer!
Even though the Tribune just ran an article about how it's super trendy to have a long-haired boy-child, I just could not stomach the mullet any longer. I didn't think Chris would have the heart to go through with it, but he said ok, so we went to the famous kidsnips after Amalia's dr. appointment today. (p.s. she's PERFECT according to Dr. #2 Favorite -- by the way, I LOVE YOU. Weighing in at 8 lbs 2 oz, up from 6lbs 12 oz at birth 2 weeks ago, everything looks absolutely perfect and we're doing a great job! Take that Ms. "We need to talk about your skinny baby, wake her up every two hours to eat" aka Dr. Loco Mc-stinkface!) .
Ok, back to the action: and we paid more than for Chris's regular do for 3 minutes in the chair. And there weren't even any girly mags to be had!
But the chair was a little yellow Hummer with dinosaurs glued to the hood. Domingo was pleased with his seat. He did great and was completely distracted by the toys and the video of Dora the mermaid.
And the best part is the commemorative certificate they give you, complete with Polaroid. I don't know if you can see it very well, but Domingo has the most perfect smirk on his face. It's truly worth the price of admission.
Not only that now he is baby-hippy no more! He looks like a little Alex P. Keaton. Actually, he looks like such a handsome little boy it's crazy. But his baby curls are all gone. I must admit, I had mixed feelings about it walking into the salon, especially because Chris brought the camera but forgot to put in the battery pack, so we couldn't even document the occasion. But it was time. It was probably well over due. Hopefully Ana's weird superstition doesn't come to pass and Domingo doesn't stop talking. Doesn't seem likely since on our way home we passed by the zoo and he was asking to see the lions, and bears, and wolves, and pigs, and tigers, and...

Did you keep a curl or two for him for later on?
As for the post before this - I can say almost the exact same things about Elena.
And Amen on the pacifier issue. Elena now wants one in her mouth longer than the half-second we got out of her as a kid. Luckily Sebastian is a bit better in taking it.
Hugs and kisses to everyone on that side of the state line!!!
The Garcias!
I am glad that you have opted for the alex p. keaton look over the mullet style. By now, it may have grown to somewhere in the middle. This a.m. I helped with the class for 6 yr olds at the nature center in steamboat. Great fun! We worked on rocks. CO is the perfect place for learning about rocks! Hope Domi can join us some day! xo sally
