First Hair Cuts!

Grandma Patty had the honor of giving Cooper his first hair cut last week. He had been mistaken for a girl a couple of times, so it was time. I videoed it, but forgot to take pictures while it was happening, but here are the before and after shots!

Grace also had her first hair cut this week at the salon. There are no pictures of that either, because I was restraining her to keep the cape on! She just got a trim, but it has made the ends curl up nicer!

We're getting excited about Christmas!

Gotta protect the tree again this year.
Grace helped me put on the ornaments this year and it was so fun to tell her about my collection. She loved every one I pulled out and was so excited the next morning to show Cooper ALL of them!
Watching a Veggie Christmas special and having popcorn by the light of the tree!
The countdown is on!
(And up; away from little, destructive, fingers!)

Hugs to Aunt Monica!


Shopping Trip!!!!!

I was able to get away for a night and day with the girls to Indy/Edinburgh. What fun we had and I got most of my shopping done!
