Firsts are slowly fading away

It's been 3 years and 2 months. If John had his way it probably would have been 1 year and 6 months. But, I finally did it. The dreaded. The feared. The girl's haircuts. Listen!! Can you hear the sobs? Ok, ok, in all reality I don't know that these can truly be considered haircuts, more of a small trim.

We started with a bath. Silly you think? Well, I won't admit the last time we bathed our kids. Not even if you use military techniques. I will just keep repeating "we are not bad parents, we are not bad parents..." So yes, a bath.

The girls hair length when wet





Love her sass!!

Before we left we had a mini modeling session.



















It was the first time John had joined the kids and I in any haircut adventures. And of course, mommy forgets to limit the number of toys the kids get to play with. *cringe*. After about 5 minutes, as one child was led outside for a calm down, mommy remembered - two cars each. Only two!

While sitting on daddy's lap, waiting, Katie proudly announced she wanted to go first. Then Mrs. Laurie came out and asked who wanted to go first. Crickets. We finally got a small smirk and whispered "me" from little miss.



She is loving the attention


While also keeping a watchful eye!


Flipping her new hair


She was a very happy camper with the two clips Mrs. Laurie put in. No, no picture. Yes, they are lost already.

Addie's turn!! Peanut was a little scared. She asked for Daddy to hold her hand.






After the first cut she was okay. She had been afraid it would hurt.


Always a little trepidacious though.


All selfies. Tongue out.


Instead of clips, she chose a braid.









What do the kids do while waiting you ask?

Spin in the chair





Take pics with the phone





And anxiously await the appearance of the treat basket!! We love Mrs. Laurie. I hope we can find someone as nice and caring in Alabama.
