Hair Cuts for Everyone

(this post has lived in Drafts for a year. Written in August 2010, posted august 2011)Molly's hair was very uneven so it became time for her first haircut.  Above and below are before shots...

During...

After.  Not very dramatic but the first hair cut is always a little dramatic for Mama so we went with a little trim so I didn't cry.

Next was Alivia.  She has been growing her hair long for over a year.  It has gotten so long that she can not brush it herself.  It was a lot of work and needed to be worn in braids unless we were up for hours  of detangling and screaming and yelling from both of us.  Just kidding about the screaming and yelling...no, actually I'm not kidding :

What happened to my baby!?!?!!!!

Then Marlin Man put in his own special request.  He wanted a Mohawk!  We went with a mild cut that could still be a non-mohawk when we didn't use gel.

So far, we have used gel every day.  He loves his Mohawk and I love his sweet face...even with the Mohawk.

Party at Barbara's

Retro Post 2

Halloween was pretty big this year.  The kids wore their costumes to three different events.  The first Halloween event we attended was a party at Barbara's house.  We love Barb.  She planned a very fun evening for all of us.

Here is Barb and baby Lily. 

 

The whole gang

Cortney and baby Lily...we love them too!

 

The party picked up its pace after the sugar was handed out.  People were dancing on furniture, drawing on windows and running around the house without their pants on.  It was CRAZY!

Thanks Barb!
