Lainey and I share a birthday week. We are (30 years and) 6 days apart. As a little birthday treat for both of us, I thought it'd be fun to go get pedicures. This particular nail salon has the cutest chairs for the little girls to sit in and Lainey was SO excited to "sit in the princess chair" and get some "sparkly nail polish." Unfortunately, she was so excited that in the process of picking out her color, she knocked over (and broke) a bottle of orange polish. It got all over the floor...and the wall...and it was a little embarrassing because - as many of you know - all eyes can be focused on you in about a second if you make too much of a scene in a nail salon. Thankfully, the owner just brushed it off and said, "It happens." Well, that is true. I am grateful for her laid-back attitude. I think it's funny that I took Lainey to get her first pedicure at age 3 while I didn't get my first pedicure till I was in my 20s. Ha!
Lainey liked talking to Tina, the person doing her nails. She called her the "purple girl" because she was wearing a purple sweater. She told her about how her "mom has nail polish in the bathroom" and how her "mom has sparkly nail polish." I'm pretty sure that Tina had no idea what Lainey was saying, but was so sweet and patient with her nonetheless.
And this little guy just cracks me up. He loves laying on pillows and holding remotes. Such a boy...even with his purple pacifier (which we inadvertently received because "colors may vary" when ordering this particular pacifier from Amazon.com).
