Recent Rundown

I'm not sure where the time has gone, but school wraps up for Jake next week.  *GULP*  He's going to be a 2nd grader next year, you guys!!  Craziness. 

We've been playing, of course, both inside and outside:

 

 

 

 

"Is it naptime yet??"

We all got fresh haircuts recently....I was trying to snap a shot to send to my BFF and got photobombed by some freshly bathed boys:

We've been trying to eat things that resemble real meals, though between baseball and various other commitments, some nights we end up eating Mickey pancakes and sometimes some of us eat in our bathrobes:

 

Jake's school was closed last Tuesday for Election Day, so we took advantage of the nice weather and headed to the zoo with some neighbors:

 

 

 

 

Post-zoo crash.

 Last Saturday, our BFFs were in town and we were able to meet them for dinner (ADULTS ONLY, WOOHOO!  Thank you for babysitting, GG!)  Always a good time!!

 

That's a wrap for now!!!

Hair, There, Everywhere

I'm all over the board when it comes to my hair.  I want to grow it out!  No wait, I like it at my chin!  Maybe shoulder length would be good?  I hate my hair like this!  I love my hair like this!

Is there such thing as hair ADD?  If so, I think I suffer from it.

I haven't had much of a choice when it comes to my hair recently, as I'm trying to grow it out for Brian's sister's wedding in November.  I hate fussing with my hair during big events like that, so I'm on a mission that it will be long enough to pull back and not fall out in pieces all day!

It didn't help though that I chopped it off last November.  Almost to my chin.  oops.  Hair ADD strikes again.

I swore off any major cuts after that, and I've managed to stick to it.  My hair is now in that awful phase where I hate it because it's kind of in between lengths, flips out on the ends, and is just non-cooperative in general.  My hair stylist assured me during my last trim that I will see some relief soon, I'm almost through the worst part of growing it out.  I hope that's true because it's pretty bad.

See?  It just hangs there. Blaaaaaaaah.

All of that being said, I'm hoping to maybe experiment with longer hair if I can make it past this bad stage.  It's been a long time since I've had longer hair, so if I have to grow it out for a few more months anyway, why not keep it that way for awhile?  I recently came across from pictures of DJ Tanner (aka-Candace Cameron Bure) and I LOVED her hair.  Side note-this picture is from Uncle Joey's wedding.  And she's posing with Kimmy Gibbler.  My 10 year old self just wept with joy.

Candace Cameron's hair on the right

I also came across this picture of her that maybe I can achieve before mine gets as long as the one above?

I think I just have another 2 inches or so to go to get this look.

Oh, cute haircut...why must you tempt me so??

If you're watching Dancing with the Stars this season, you've probably seen this cute girl from the Disney channel:



Look at that cute hair cut!! I made a vow to myself when I found out I was pregnant that I would not chop my hair off (I have this tendency to let my hair grow for a few months, then chop it all off). But, I did that the last time I was pregnant, then I was irritated that my hair was growing so fast that I couldn't keep up with the cut & it just ended up looking sloppy. Plus, since this baby will be born in the summer, I'd like the option to pull it back in a pony tail.

So I'm going to ignore you for now, cute cut! I will NOT cave in and take you on! But we will revisit you in the fall.....
