Last week in the Lyons' house

We did a lot of fun things last week. Last Sunday after church, we had a church picnic. There was a train there and Michael got to have his first train ride.

He had a good time with his daddy!
Monday was another big milestone for Michael...his first haircut! I took him to Cookie Cutters for his first trim, which was a nice place, but it did not go over so well. He was having a great time until the spray bottle and scissors came out!
They had a slide and he got to sit in a firetruck, but there was only one stylist there the day we went and she was not very kid friendly. I was very thankful when it was over!

Because of the tears and red-faced little boy, I took an after shot when we got back home.

He did get a certificate after his big first haircut with a picture and a lock of his hair (For some reason when I uploaded the picture blogger rotated it). I can already tell that his hair is growing fast, which means we will have to do this again sooner than I would like to!

My mom came up to visit on Monday and stayed for the week so that I could get some studying done. She brought Michael more birthday presents from family.

He loves his new Mega Blocks Fire truck! He was very upset when he had to go to bed that night because he couldn't play with his blocks anymore.

Below is a picture of a hat from his Grandma J and Aunt Hannah. The picture is taken from his back-side because by the time I got to the other side of him, it was already on the floor! We're working on getting him to keep hats on his head.

Here's another fun item he got for his birthday from Nanny Moore. He enjoys riding; I hope he will start walking behind it soon too.
