the new do

After having a baby I usually get my hair cut. I have waited extra long this time. I don't really like having long hair with a baby since it gets pulled and spit up in. And I usually get really sick of having long hair so I just go and get it cut in whatever style. This is what happened again. I even did some research and was planning on taking a picture of what I wanted, but I didn't. I think it turned out good, other than the bangs, I wanted the long tuck behind your ear kind, but I guess she didn't understand what I meant :). At least it will grow back, right?



the new hair do, it kind of shows it off....Kylan took the picture for me, the little sweetie :)

Frilly fairy party

Our local library put on this cute fairy party last week. I was a good mom and took my kids. The boys got a kick out of all the girlies dressed up and even played some of the games. They had the whole room decked out and there were games, face painting, coloring, even a photo spot. Plus there were goodies and drinks. We had fun and got some cute pics.



Enjoying the refreshing drink and sweets.


Who knows who that girl is, she just sat herself down and so she got to be in our picture, she was running amok the whole time and I never saw who she was with :)


getting her face painted, she wanted a butterfly.

4th of July

We didn't do too much for the 4th. We had a barbeque and just hung out together as a family. We did dress up in matching shirts though :)

Here are the kids


Brothers gotta hug


Such cuties!

Miss Olivia

Olivia is traveling all over the house now. She used to just stick to the carpet, but now she goes from one side of the house to the other. She really likes to get in this particular spot. It's pretty funny and she laughs when she gets caught. Maybe she's going to be the clown of the family :)

Pesky little critter!

A couple weeks ago I saw that my tomato plant had been all chewed up. I looked closer and saw this huge worm on the stem. So like a good educating mom, I caught it in a jar. The kids lovingly named him Monstro.



This is the damage he did to my plant. He ate almost every leaf, I'm glad I caught him when I did, it was my biggest plant.


He only lasted a few days though in the jar. I didn't have anything to feed him because he only wanted tomato leaves and I think he got enough of those :) I tried tree leaves and spinach leaves....after a day of not eating those, I gave up. He got a ride in the dumpster. I don't think we'll be having a pet here any time soon :) They are a lot of work.
