Sister's party

My sisters came to visit to go get facials and go shopping.  It was grand fun and we need to party together more often.  We forgot to take a picture until right before we were leaving.

Chop, chop, chop

I finally chopped the wispy mullet off of Grace's hair. She looks so much old with her new hair cut. This is the new tile in my kitchen and family room. It is so much better than the old carpet and linoleum.

In case you can not remember what Grace's hair looked like prior to the chopping.

Since Jacob is gone most of the day, Merry and Grace have become better playmates. I finally evened out Merry's bangs. It still looks like a 3 year old cut them, but they are getting better.

What's new

While Brian is away catching lots of fish.

I retiled half of my downstairs.

Okay let me rephrase that, brother-in-law Steve came and retiled the floor while I drank a DDP and ate bon-bons.  I actually did help some and it turned out awesome.  Unfortunately Brian took my camera to Alaska so there are no pictures to share.

1st day of preschool

Merry also started preschool last week.  She did try and sneak into her old class, so I had to go put her in the right class.  When she came home she kept telling me "I am so big now, I am a ladybug."  She loves bringing home lots of art projects.

Her bangs are taking forever to grow back.   After another incident with the scissors, the rest of her hair is a couple of inches shorter.  We are on a break from scissors at our house.

1st day of Kindergarden (finally)

Okay so almost 2 weeks ago Jacob started kindergarden.  I just have been really slow at ever posting pictures.  So far he likes school, but he misses playing video games at home.

Slightly nervous grin for the first day portrait.

I think this is actually a I can't believe you are making me take a picture grin.
