Haircut

Petru had his first professional haircut this past weekend. Chris and I have been talking about it for a while, but Petru kept postponing. Somehow Chris convinced him with a trip to Toys R Us as a reward. They called me and warned me of the drastic difference. I was surprised at how emotional I was. The boy looks so much older with short hair. We do think he looks cooler with longer hair and we will probably not go this short next time (unless Petru will choose differently, which he might because he said today "Everyone tells me I look so beautiful", Ha!).Yes, he probably drinks 4 apple juices/day, but who is counting. He is wearing his oversized T-ball Blue Claws t-shirt.




P.S. Yes, we still have not gotten the signs down, and I can't blame Petru for that (hmm, Chris!).

Spring is here

The weather has been gorgeous around here in the past few weeks. We celebrated Easter quietly, just the 3 of us. We colored 3 eggs (one each) with coloring left over from last year, and Petru and I messed up with Chris's color adding a few different shades when he was not looking. The giggles that little boy can give! Petru had the champion egg- we followed the Romanian tradition of cracking eggs. The easter bunny arived - he was late and had to pay extra for next day shipping, but it all worked out. Petru was happy with his candy and his traffic signal. For the next 2 weeks he asked us to wake him up with the traffic signal noise.

Petru started T-ball last week. We missed the Saturday session so Petru joined the party late on Sunday. I was concerned that he would be clingy, but he was not, he held his own, he listened and concentrated (aside from a brief moment when he and a little friend made sand castles in the infield). The coach is wonderful and Petru is excited to go back. I am excited to go back. I had a blast watching the little people play.


Other than that, we've been going to the playground a lot.


Petru has been riding the tandem bike with daddy.
