Today Ana and I went to a little nail salon near our house for a special mommy-daughter date. We went and got pedicures! Ana got a manicure too (her mani-pedi took the same amount of time as my spa pedi). We have been meaning to do this for awhile and with Ana starting school next week, it seemed like the perfect time for a little special treat.

First, Ana got to pick out her nail color. You have never seen her more excited in her life as when she spotted the wall of nail polish.

Then she settled in to the special child chair: pink, shaped like a teddy bear, and complete with her own personal DVD player.

She was very excited to watch a movie while getting her manicure and letting her feet soak in the bubbly tub.

For her fingers, Ana settled on a pretty purple color. She was ecstatic when the lady added a fancy flower to one finger on each hand.

For her toes she opted for a sparkly pink, and again was very happy to have the added flower. If you notice, the lady did the flower centers with the other polish Ana chose. Very coordinated! And fancy.

Here are our completed pedicures. Is there anything sweeter than a mother-daughter pedicure? Oh I don’t think so!

(I didn’t think to bring my nice camera, so all the pictures were taken with my iPhone 4. Not too shabby for a phone!)
