Weekend shopping in Portland

I usually avoid staying in Portland over the weekend and keep that for family time, but I needed my mom to help do some important shopping and we needed a LOT of time, so obviously a weekend was the only choice. Mom and I were looking into all options for re-doing Lacy's room. We will be recovering a head-board in her room and we thought we could just make(and by we, I mean mostly my mom sewing it all and me watching!) all the bedding to coordinate. So we hit all the fabric stores and after ALL day, we had figured out it was not worth it for many different reasons, and will buy a bedding set and then find some coordinating material to cover the headboard and probably make curtains. It was a TON of shopping and SO much time on my feet! But, we made progress and hopefully will get it all sorted before Bump2 arrives!

Portland Mommies! We went to Pigtails & Crewcuts in the Streets of Tanasbourne. We just got a trim, so I can't really tell you much about the quality, but Lacy LOVED what they had to offer, as did mommy. And, instead of charging me $17 for a haircut, the lady only charged me for a bang trim-$5! Made this mommy happy! They have fun cars to sit in, video to watch while getting the cut, and toys to play with if you wait. SO, if you mention my name for a referal, I get a little discount:)

She kept her hands on the steering wheel the entire time!:)

We have a kids haircut place similar to that near us. (its called kid snips)
Kaiya just loves going there to get her hair cut, and the bang trims are $5 too! So worth it! :) Looks like Lacy liked the little car!

Yeah, I took David to a place like this when he was little. Let's just say our experience was completely the opposite of Lacy (because my little guy did NOT want to sit still and wasn't sure he liked getting his hair cut!). Thankfully, his stylist was very patient with him and she did a great job, although he definitely did not! ;) I'm glad that Lacy enjoyed her trim!
