After 4 years of life it was about time for Celeste to have her first haircut. She was adamant about the fact that she wanted to keep it long, but I finally convinced her that a little haircut would help make it look nicer and then it would grow even faster too.

So, last Saturday her Mom and I took her to get it cut. They were super nice to her and she was really sweet the whole time. I think she liked being pampered even if the hair washing make her squint her eyes really tight. 

Here's a picture of Celeste and her first cut curl. You can click below to see the rest of the photos.

C shows proper form for Walmart shopping: using her blanket and a pillow, she "sleeps" in the cart. :)

C chose this dinner on her own: rice, pork, raw red pepper slices, cucumber and blueberries. And no dinner is complete without a glass of chocolate milk with a crazy straw!

Celeste at Christmas 2011

C was happy to get a bike for Christmas from Grandmaman and Pappa. We took it out for a ride today, and she couldn't have been more excited. She was only ready to come home after 2.5 hours of riding around the local elementary school's parking lot. I managed to get a little video of the very beginning of it all, I hope you enjoy. :)

Lately Celeste loves having her hair braided when she comes out of the shower at night, so she can have wavy hair in the morning. Here she is modelling her 'do.

I am a very proud Dad. Celeste did so wonderful at her Christmas Concert. She sang "Up on the Rooftop" with her class. Then she performed ballet to "The First Toymaker to the King". She smiled and laughed and was so very beautiful.

On Celebrating Cultures Day at Celeste's school, they do a small parade carrying the flags of their heritage and then sing a song together. Here is Celeste in that parade this September.
