First Haircut

My friend and hair stylist, Heidi, gave Ryan his first haircut. I was planning on cutting his hair two months before before I couldn't. Ryan did awesome!! He was shy so he sat really still which made it easier for her to cut. She did any excellent job just trimming him up.

 We brought a dum dum sucker for Heidi to give Ryan and he loved it!!

Natural history Museum

My friend, Lori, invited us to the Natural History Museum. She had a free pass for us and it was my first time. I was really impressed with the displays and the size of the museum. I would love to go back with Allen.

New Year's Day

We went to the Manhattan Beach Pier and the aquarium at the end of the pier was open. It was our first time and it's a cute little aquarium. They had a touch tank and and several tanks for viewing only. It was a great outing, even if Ryan wanted to stop at each volleyball plaque on the pier and say, "ball". Emily and Alex quickly learned to stand on the plaques and distract Ryan.
