The Dude gets ANOTHER Haircut

Preston has been quite the little salon visitor since about 16 months. He literally needs his hair cut about once every two months. When he was little if his hair got long he had these ridiculously cute curls in the back. Over time, they have straightened and his cowlick-which is seriously the width of his noggin has taken residence. I decided I was going to just grow his hair long to tame the cowlick. I saw pictures of Britney Spears' boys and thought that his hair would look cute longer. Except it did not happen. My reasoning was the longer the hair, the more gravity will pull it down so I don't have to tame the mane in the morning-or beg for him to just let me put some gel in it, etc. Except the length did not tame the cowlick. From the back he had one of those senior citizen women poufs. It had to go.

So off to Divas & Dudes. Preston always got his hair cut at my salon, but since that salon is in NY and the haircut was just not worth an eight hour drive even with these amazingly lower gas prices, we tried this new place. Of course he thought it much cooler since he go to sit in a rocket ship and watch Thomas. I was the crazy mom telling the lady exactly how it had to be cut, buzzed, styled, etc. It came out really good too!

On Sunday my mother and I continued birthday/Christmas shopping. I am so excited too because after hunting almost an entire day on the Internet, I found the scooter Preston wanted for Christmas! It was at his daycare and he just loves it! His feet reach the floor and he uses his legs to go. He is really fast too! It has no pedals which is fine because the exercise he is getting is great. I feared since it was listed for age 1-2 it would be too babyish, but so many of the kids in the 3-4 year old class use it too! There are so many pedal free ride on toys out there too. If anyone needs suggestions for ride on toys come to me-I went through every site on the Internet to find this thing. He is also getting some other fun things-and I am almost done narrowing down which Thomas wooden railway set to buy. That conspiracy-you would think with the prices they were widdling Percy by hand! Why is two feet of track, a tunnel and a bridge $127??? Ridiculous!

We also enjoyed the Giants game although Preston was bummed that he did not see the "silly chicken." That is the Sony HD TV commercial with Peyton Manning holding back a chicken mascot. He thinks it is the funniest thing ever. Check out the way he hung out watching football. I love this kid!
