Two New 'Do's

We've had a few exciting "firsts" for the girls this last week. Last Friday, AG and LL had their first dental appointments. I didn't take pics because I wasn't allowed to go back with them, but no problem for them...they walked away with the friendly hygenist, holding hands with each other and AG declaring that she would go first. About half an hour later they came back smiling, with balloons and a photo and a bag of goodies. Anyway, I was thankful it went well!

Then this week, another simultaneous first for them...their first real haircuts (as in, not done by their Mama!). After almost four years, it was about time for AG! I had trimmed it many times, but it was so long and we all agreed it was time for a good cut. Here she is, before:
During:
and after!
Here is a (weirdly placed) picture of both girls later that evening, sporting their new shorter locks.
And here are LL's pictures, before:

Being shampoo'd...I still don't know why, but the girl cutting her hair wanted to do this. LL wouldn't lean back on the adult size sink and so she and the surrounding area got soaked, but that was all part of the experience! I don't think they get many two year olds at this salon!
Here is LL after the cut, getting dried. She is really skiddish of such things, and she squinted her eyes like this the whole time. Then she leaned so far forward that she fell off the booster seat she was on and slid all the way down to the floor! She wasn't hurt, thankfully, but of course she cried because it scared her. But she made a quick recovery...
and here is the final result!
