The hair-a-cut store...

On Sunday, Michael and I took the kids to the "hair-a-cut" store, as Morgan calls it. Lord knows they both needed a trim and fast!  This was Mikayla's first trip to have someone else cut her bangs, and I thought that just maybe she would be like her sister and just be stunned into silence. I couldn't have been more wrong. I had my camera all ready to take pictures of her getting her bangs cut, but oh no, she would not sit in the seat by herself. She was stiff as a board and screaming like a banshee. So, I sat with her on my lap and Michael held her head still so we could try to get her bangs straight. I have to say, it actually came out alright. And of course, Morgan did perfectly, as usual, being that the trip to the "hair-a-cut store" is her favorite activity to do with Daddy. Here are a few highlights from our morning adventure.
You can see my beautiful Morgan making sure the nice lady was cutting her hair just so. Believe me, she is super particular! And you can see Mikayla in the background looking on nervously! 
Mikayla, after the traumatic trimming of the bangs, happy as can be with her banana split lollipop, just like big sister's...of course. ;)

Morgan's end result....note that she is still upset that I don't have a pic of her with her lollipop like baby sister. Sigh. 

Some picture Updating

As I have mentioned, I am running way behind with this whole blogging thing! Since school started, I have been doing nothing but homework and studying with little time for much else...including figuring out how to use my spamtabulous camera! I really REALLY need to put more of an emphasis on that as taking pictures is something I really enjoy. Gotta make some me time, right?
Okay, well, where to begin. There have been birthday parties for friends, a girls trip into San Francisco while Daddy worked, a girls trip home while Daddy went to Atlanta/Memphis,  Michael and I's 6th anniversary night out with a fancy dinner and a movie, the flu, ear infections and some other illnesses, of course.  Anyway, here are a few pictures from January's adventures....as this is a blog I started in February! haha (See how behind I am) I'm hoping now that I have a new computer that doesn't take 10 hours to upload pictures that I'll be able to share them on a more regular basis, but we'll see.

watching Dio's Holy Diver on daddy's laptop...their favorite song these days



Daddy insisted that they needed their own chairs for tv watching, so of course, they need the super deluxe recliner chairs...from costco...where else?



Morgan taking pictures with the camera she got from Santa...definitely my daughter. :)

Teacups at Disneyland...wasn't sure Mikayla would like it, but let me tell you that she screamed bloody murder when it was time to get off. Yeah, she LOVED it!

My happy girl and Papa. Oh the animated pictures i get from this one!
