A baby mohawk, that you can’t really see…

So the other day we took prince L to get his very first hair cut..as you can see he had a great time!

It was supposed to be cut in a mohawk, but you really can’t see it. Oh well! It’s still super cute!

Five Question Friday!

For some reason it seems I always wait till Saturdays to do my "Five Question Friday". Oh well! I love joining in. If you want to join, head over to Mama M's place!


1. Do you do a real or fake Christmas tree?
We have a fake one that we've had for years..I think it's either time to get a new fake one...or start using real!

2. What is your favorite Christmas tradition with your family?
On Christmas eve my brother and sister come over and I cook a big dinner and we all just sit around playing games and having fun!

3. Do you celebrate Thanksgiving in your neck of the woods? And, if so...how many calories do you think you consumed yesterday?
Yes I do...and I have no idea...probably enough for the whole week!

4. Have you started decorating for Christmas, yet?
A little here and there. We've put the gel window clings on the windows.. I have some garland up. The big decorating comes today!

5. What is your favorite Christmas cookie?
I can't pick just one...either peanut butter or sugar cookies!

A five year olds broken heart.

I really didn’t think I’d have to console a broken heart for at least 11 more years.

Today I had to tell my 5 year old that her best friend, our neighbor is moving away. And not across the city. Across the country! First she cried. Then she snuggled up to me and said in the saddest little voice ever..”well, can we still play together?” “No honey, I’m sorry you can’t. But you can write letters and talk on the phone” “But why does she have to move, Mommy? I will miss her so much”

My heart aches for her. This is her very first best friend, not to mention that they live literally next door. There are no other children in our neighborhood, except a few boys that are little older.

When she asked again, why they were moving I just told her that I wasn’t really sure and that her mommy and daddy decided to move. That all of her life things will be changing and there isn’t too much we can do to stop it.  She had to sign a birthday card for her friend and she drew a picture of them playing together with flowers and a butterfly that said “I love you laura”

I know her heart is broken tonight, but so is mine.

Not Me Monday!

This blog carnival was created by MckMama! everyone should head on over and join in the fun!

It's certainly Not Me, that keeps swearing she is done Christmas shopping for her children, only to buy "one more thing"

It also wasn't me that gave her baby boy gross, disgusting keys to play with in the store to keep him quiet. Nope, Not Me! I'd never replace the toys I forgot, with germ infested keys!

When I asked my husband to put up our lighted candy canes in the yard, I certainly didn't come home and rearange them...Nope! Not Me!

And lastly, It surely wasn't me that re-gifted a baby shower gift! Nope! I buy everything brand new!
