Randomness of the week

Here are a few random thoughts from this week--things I want to remember

• Kaylee was not happy about all the snow and commented "can't we just have global warming or something???


• Enoch, our 3 yr old neighbor, not only gave me a kiss at church today but told me "I love him" and pointed at Kaylee. I said, "you do?? what's his name?" and he said "Kiwi" and scrunched up his nose and grinned. He's called her that for a long time...it's cute


• We've decided to call Jaycee a few different nicknames. Well--if you know Jaycee, you know that she tends to......ummm.......whine....ummmm........a lot. On Christmas Eve, I told her we were going to call her either JJ or OJ. JJ is for Joyful Jaycee and OJ is for onery Jaycee. She prefers that OJ stand for Outrageous Jaycee---but we all know the truth. Here's hoping that 2009 brings a lot more JJ!

Befores and Afters

I've been trying to get Jaycee to cut her hair for MONTHS. She just refused...yet it ALWAYS hangs down and looks scraggly. She looks like she is an orphan...I tell her that all the time...but she likes to do her own hair and she's 9...so enough said. Yesterday she was begging for a icee and I said that I'd get her one AFTER she got her hair cut. She quickly agreed! WOW...could it have been any easier? Why didn't I think of that before? Anyway--here are her before and after shots...I think her new "do" is cute! Sorry the lighting is so bad...it's from my phone and at the hairdressers!

Kaylee didn't get but a smidge off the end of hers...but decided that it was time for bangs. It really shows off her eyes now...especially now that she wears eye make-up.
