A Little Fun In The Sun

Sprinkler time! The Chef family little girls had some extra energy to burn off today, so it was time for some fun in the sun. Sprinklers!

Little O loved the mini pool and sprinklers more than I imagined. It was actually her first time playing with the sprinklers. As for Miss A, she was a pro and ran through several times. Or was definitely a hot day but the water from the faucet was cold!

It's 7-11- update

It's 7-11, guess what we did? Went to 7-11 of course. The store was conveniently located next to our bank so we thought we would celebrate the end of our errands with a free, cool drink. A first for Miss A and she loved it.

Update: miss a's response when she told the iron chef that we had a snack in the afternoon, "daddy, I had a treat today. It was candy you drank." needless to say we don't get sugary snacks like that on a regular basis.

1st Haircut

Little O finally had her first haircut. We ventured up to Colorado Springs for her pediatric gastroenterologist appointment and decided to try a children's salon for her first trim.

A little trim to even up her ends and she was good to go. I am pretty sure she cried the whole time. Then the lady tried to bribe her with a sucker (she has never had one nor would I let her at this age) and I had to tell the stylist a polite no thank you because of her gluten allergies. Of course that sent O crying even more! Alas, first haircut down and her hair looks so much better. It's still a crazy mess and I am usually clueless on how to style it. That, and she has been putting empty bowls ( after she finishes eating what was inside) on top of her head and saying "hat" and then her hair is a sloppy, wet , food filled mess.

Here she is - 1st haircut.

A BIG Thanks

Little packages are always fun for anyone to open in the mail, especially little girls. A huge thanks to Miss A's friend, K, for the prizes. Miss A picked out a new favorite to add to her new mermaid themed room.

Cereal Break

Chex cereal is a new staple in our house. Giving up certain breakfast has probably been one of the biggest adjustments in our gf diet. The girls love it as a gluten free cereal and it comes in a few fun varieties for fun snacks in lieu of other snacks such as goldfish crackers or Annie's snacks.

Little O likes to eat it right out of the bag.
