Deanna's First Hair Cut

Deanna's first hair cut was a little overdue, mainly because I was worried that if we cut her hair we would be cutting off her curls and they wouldn't come back. I finally gave in because her hair was getting way too long. We took Deanna to the lady that cuts Jamie's hair and Deanna was such a trooper. At first, she did not want to get her hair cut because she thought she was going to get a hair cut "like daddy". After we reassured her that she would be getting a princess hair cut, she went along with putting on the cape. Her hair looks great now, it is still past her shoulders, but has a lot more body to it now and is easier to manage. She still has some wave to it and I am crossing my fingers for the curls.

Magic Kingdom

We took Deanna to Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom for the first time this past weekend. Bryan and Dana were coming into town with their kids and we thought it would be a perfect opportunity to share the "magic" with Deanna. We had held off on Disney until we knew that she would be old enough to truly enjoy it. She had such a great time there and it was truly amazing to see her face light up when she saw the Castle and all of the characters. She is not a big fan of Mickey and the characters that are dressed up with big heads, but she loved the princesses and fairies. We were also really lucky because one of my sorority sisters is Ariel and so she was able to get us all back stage with all of the princesses so that the girls could have some one on one time with them. It was so AWESOME! Deanna is still talking about meeting all of the princesses. In addition to visiting with the princesses, Deanna went on a lot of rides. She went on Pirates of the Carribbean, Snow Whites Adventure, Dumbo, Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor, the Haunted Mansion (yes, she wanted to go on this!! She was a little nervous, but enjoyed it), and many more. We can't wait to go back! We have some more pictures coming soon so keep checking back. We snagged a shot with Snow White when we first walked into the park.

Deanna loves Tinkerbell and was trying to stand just like her in the Pixie Hollow. We all had to shrink down to size before we walked in to see them. It was a lot of fun!
Princess Iridessa
Princess Belle
Princess Cinderella -- Deanna spent the most time with her and then went back for seconds after she had visited with all of them. When Cinderella asked who would be pulling her carriage to the ball, she answered "My Mommy"!! Go Figure...
Princess Aurora -- Sleeping Beauty

Deanna's First Catch

Deanna has been fascinated with fish ever since she was a baby and could see Nemo on the TV. The past few months she has shown a real big interest in fishing, so Jamie has taken her out a couple times to the lake by our house and at my grandmother's house, but they have come up shy each time. A few bites, but never the fish. This past weekend Jamie packed up Deanna with her pink Barbie fishing rod and went to his dad's house to go fishing and this time she actually caught her first fish (a blue gill). Deanna was so excited and keeps talking about going fishing again!
