No More Curls!

Andrew had his first haircut tonight. He got to sit in a jeep and watch Cars.


I'm trying not to cry as I write this. As wild as they were, I loved his curls. They seemed to epitomize his personality. However, his hair was getting really long, snarly, and it was in his eyes. In the past couple of weeks, he has been mistaken for a girl a number of times, so we decided it was time.



Andrew definitely didn't enjoy the experience.

He looks so much more like a little boy now.

He doesn't seem too scarred by the experience!

He's back to a happy man, drool and all!

Happy Holidays to all!

SANTA!!!!!

Last night we went to a Christmas party at daycare, and SANTA came! It was very exciting. All the kids lined up at the top of the stairs and watched as he came in the door. Santa showed them his magical key that lets him in any house to deliver gifts on Christmas.


All the other kids went to sit down, and Andrew just stood there staring at Santa. He wasn't sure what to think.

Aubrey hopped right up on his lap.

Andrew needed a little coaxing....

but when he saw what was inside the present Santa brought for him, he was just fine! He got a new tractor that he pushed around with his butt in the air all night.

Christmas fun

Aubrey and Andrew got to decorate their own little tree. It has Lightening McQueen, Elmo, and princess ornaments.


Andrew prefers to pull the ornaments off and throw them across the room.



Aubrey very carefully puts them back on for him.

Andrew's favorite ornament is "Queee" (McQueen).

Aubrey is 4!

So this is a little late, but Aubrey turned 4 on November 30th. She loved everything about it... the cake, the candles, the presents!

She got some new things for her doll, and now she spends hours playing with her. Joe really loves it when he gets to dress the doll! I think it may be his favorite game.

Birthdays are the best!
