a day of firsts

so today mommy went and had her hair highlighted for the very first time. i had seen some pictures from 10 years ago and noticed that my hair was a lot lighter back then. these days it just seemed dark and dull with little gray strands sticking out all over. so i finally did it. i was a bit scared that i would come out platinum blonde but not so. in fact, as he was drying it i thought, " it looks like my hair used to look!" or course it's not THAT natural but i really like it. unfortunately it costs about a million dollars to highlight so i don't know that it will make it onto our new limited budget. :) i would take a picture but i don't think it would show up that well in a photo. in fact, when i got home norton said he couldn't tell i had done anything. it just shows up better in different lights.
so that was a good first.
marin had a first while i was at the salon. she woke up crying from her nap and when norton went in to get her she had thrown up all over herself and her bed. now she has spit up milk before but this was her entire lunch-peaches and carrots-and they looked just like they did on her tray before she ate them. i guess she just swallowed them whole. poor thing. and she has a runny nose too. this little one just can't seem to get completely well this season. i need to spray more lysol i guess.
so that was not a good first.
