Gracie got Glasses


The  nurse from Gracie's school called a few weeks ago to tell me that Gracie had failed her eye test a few times. I made an appointment for her to get them checked out and sure enough she needs glasses. She looks pretty cute in them in my opinion. She is excited and sad that she needs them, but hopefully she gets used to them soon and sees the benefit of having them. 

Lost-then found shoe

So what happens when you take 3 kids to Wal-Mart and they act like crazy wild animals, and when you get home you can't find one of those kids other shoe? You go all the way to the mall and buy more shoes right? And then what happens when you get home? You find the "Lost" shoe. So now that kid has 2 pair of shoes, Good thing huh? Anyone guessing on which kid? If you say Isaac you are a winner!!!

Where'd my baby go?

Mitchell is potty trained and no longer in a crib, I guess it's official, he's not a baby anymore. It's a little sad. I was a little emotinal on Saturday while I watched the crib being put away. We have always had to take it down for the next child. So the child that was in it seemed so big. But there is not a next child on the way any time soon, if ever, and in my mind I still think of Mitchell as my baby. So it was a sad day for me.

Anyone want a haircut?

Gracie and I have had a debate over the years about growing out her bangs. She doesn't want to, I want her to. Since I am the one that cuts her hair I thought " I'll just get stubborn and not cut them" Well it turns out that Gracie is stubborn too. She thought "if my mom won't cut them I will!" And she did. 


 So I might have to wait until she gets older for those bangs to get grown out. I shouldn't make threats like, If you don't grow your bangs out I'll cut all your hair short. Because then she cuts her hair herself so I can't make good on my threats!
