Bye crazy Einstein hair...

Before...
There were no "to-do's" about this first haircut like you do with your first. No pictures in process (I was here by myself) and no planning...I just went at it...it needed to be done. Silas is a really messy eater and food is constantly in his hair. And, not to mention, it was beginning to look like crazy Einstein hair. We didn't have to cut Caleb's hair at this age...it never got this long. Hopefully it looks alright...I am sure I will have some touch-ups to do tomorrow. Love ya little guy...

Haircuts

I am not the best at getting the kids haircuts done on a regular basis...I usually wait too long in between so I don't have to spend the $$. I tried cutting both kids hair myself last time. Ella's I did not do good...very crooked. Caleb, I did alright, but it took me about 1 1/2hrs. I know I will get faster the more I cut it, but I just wasn't wanting to take the time this week. They need to get their pictures done before we head out of town and I wanted to make sure they were right. So, here are Ella's and Caleb's haircuts. This is the shortest Ella's has ever been. She was super excited and wanted it as short as mommy's. I think she looks too grown-up. :(

Happy Birthday America!

We spent a relatively quiet day at home this year celebrating the 4th. In the morning, we went to a free neighborhood festival with some bouncy houses, train, petting zoo, etc and the kids had fun. Then a midday swim in the pool and finished off the day spending time with my sister, brother-in-law and cousins! Hope you all had a great 4th.
