Eva's School Picture

We finally got Eva's school pictures back! I love them.


Somehow she managed to sneak the pink headband to school, because she wasn't wearing that when I dropped her off. But that makes me love the photo even more - the little touch of "Eva fashion". (Like wearing striped rain boots to school EVERY SINGLE DAY, even if the sun is brightly shining!)

Haircuts

The plan on Saturday morning was for Daddy to take all of the kids to the barber shop (yes, barber shop) for some much needed haircuts.

This is what happens when Daddy takes them to the Old Salt Barber Shop.

(I snuck up behind them while they were watching a movie.)

They both came back with French braids! The place I usually take them to certainly does not include French braids in the cost of a haircut! But Miss Cheryl had been asking about the girls, whom she hadn't seen in quite some time, and they were thrilled to return to her.

It really makes me wish I knew how to do French braids.

And this is what happens when your big sister, Amanda, sees how handsome you look with your new haircut: a big lip gloss smooch on the cheek!

Liam and Grandpa Clint

I scanned an old picture of my dad when he was probably around Liam's age.

In this picture, we all see a strong resemblance between Grandpa and Liam! In fact, when Amanda and Eva saw it, they even thought it WAS Liam. When Liam looks sad, it is nearly identical to this photo.

The other day, Liam was wearing an outfit that reminded me of the one Grandpa wore in the picture. I got out the camera and tried to get Liam to wear the same somber expression as Grandpa Clint. No such luck. Whenever Liam sees a camera, he hams it up and says,"Cheeeeeese!" until he sees the flash go off.

Still, you can definitely see where Liam gets his light blond hair from.
