Jordan's Weekends of Firsts

Sorry for the long delay between posts, but this has been a hectic month!

This weekend marked a couple of firsts for Jordan:

* Jordan got his first haircut Saturday morning. We went to a local kiddie salon for the haircut, and he seemed happy when we first went in. He got to sit in a chair that was shaped like a race car. We buckled him in, and he happily played with the steering wheel. The stylist went to put his cape on, and he took the first two snips of his hair pretty calmly. Then, the frustration came out and he fought, screamed, kicked and cried for the remainder of the haircut. It looks pretty good, despite his antics! He slept really well Saturday mid-day while we ran the last few errands!

* Sunday after church, the three of us went to the Fort Worth Zoo with Grandma, Grandpa and Aunt Cristina. It was a lot of fun (and a great day to go -- I mean, really, 78 degrees in December?!). We first went through the World of Primates, and Jordan watched gorillas, chimpanzees and other animals. Then, we meandered through the Asian Falls exhibit, watching elephants, rhinos and more. We ate lunch there, and then continued through the big cats, which Jordan slept through, and then made our way to the Texas Wild! section, and let Jordan run around for a while. We were all to exhausted to take in the exhibit there, so that'll be the first place we head when we head back to the zoo next year.

Christmas weekend is next weekend (hope everyone has finished their Christmas shopping -- and is ready for Santa Claus!). We'll post pictures from Jordan's second Christmas next week!
