Touchscreens, faux-hawks and lollipops!

**Michael added the links on this one - I would highly recommend them! :)
Man - what a full day! Michael took the morning off so we could go vote early (hooray!). It was my first time voting with the touchscreen ballot - it was so easy, I loved it!
Our ballot is the 2nd largest in the nation - so the simplicity was very nice. Even voting early took us about 1 hour. If you didn't vote early - vote on Tuesday!!
After taking Michael to work, Jacob and I headed out to find a place to get a haircut. We went to Kool Kuts for Kids (we saw it from the road...) and they did a great job! Jacob absolutely hates having his hair cut - I avoided it for a while because it was always such a fight and I always end up covered in more hair that Jacob does! The woman who cut his hair was so patient and nice, and to help the situation, she promised Jacob two lollipops if he could sit and let her finish. Well, Jacob was more than happy to pick two lollipops at the end. He put one in his pocket and one in his mouth instantly. I had told him earlier that if he was good I would take him for an ice cream cone, so we went to Chick-fil-a for our treat and to play! I didn't realize I had the camera until later - here is Jacob with his faux-hawk!
After that we had errands to run, and the last stop was the dry cleaners. We had to wait a little while to get our stuff, so before we left, the man at the counter offered Jacob 2 lollipops (bringing our daily total of lollipops to: 4. I think Jacob had more sugar today that in the entire last month - Halloween candy included.) We got in the car and set off, and I looked behind me and Jacob was doing this funny dance. I also noticed one lollipop in each hand. He laughed and told me they were "dancing". Here is Jacob with his dancing lollipops:
It was a full, wonderful and sunny day!! I cant believe how much older he looks with that haircut!
