Keeping It Cool

Klint built a kid wash yesterday, which of course the kids loved since it has been in the 90′s the last week or so. It was really easy to put together and a huge hit! (Thank goodness for PVC pipes!)

Conversation of the week:

Me: “Gabby, why do you have a duck whistle in your purse?”

Gabby: “That’s not all I have! I also have a flashlight and some rope!”

Me: “Okkkk…. why do you have a duck whistle, a flashlight, and some rope in your purse?”

Gabby: “Well, you never know….”

Lol!!

Moira has been practicing going on the potty every day when she sees me go to the bathroom. She asks for toilet paper and everything!

I’m definitely ready to be done with the whole diaper thing so yay for an early interest in pottying!

I fully realize that this fascination may end tomorrow so I am just going to enjoy today and hope that she just prefers to be clean sooner than later!

Summer Beauty Loves

I am sort of becoming obsessed with dying my hair bright colors. I have no clue where this came from, but I am itching to add pretty purple, pink, and blue streaks. Not my whole head mind you but some chunky bits in the front… oh the possibilities!!! I am totally blaming Pinterest for this new craze, along with my thoughts of chopping my hair again and trying more dramatic eye makeup, lol!

(All these looks can be seen on my Pinterest beauty board) Do you think my parents at the dance studio will take me seriously with baby pink hair? =)

More Hair Cuts

Being a mommy to little girls I am very aware of the simple fact that everything I do is seen with impressionable little eyes, from how I feel about my body to how I dress.

Up until this point I just sort of go about my daily routines and if they have questions about what I do they ask,

“Mommy what are you putting on your face? What is that you are using on your eyelashes? What are Spanx?”

Last week when I cut my hair made more of an impression than I realized though,

both girls asked to get their hair cut on Tues!

Gabby has gorgeous thick hair that was past her shoulders and AJ has wispy thinner hair that had grown out of her pixie cut.

This is the after photo!

Cute right?!

Gabby’s haircut makes her seem so much older now and AJ no longer looks like a homeless orphan, lol.

They love it too because I am no longer chasing them around with rubber bands and a brush!

It was a pretty cool feeling when Gabby asked the stylist to cut her hair just like Mommy’s… very cool indeed!
