Random thoughts...

While Lainey was at preschool this morning, Brady had his first haircut! Daddy was very upset that I snuck off and snipped his golden locks. He preferred the messy, long, ratty hair he had been styling before. Here he is getting all spiffed up:

Can you see how LONG that hair is? Someone told me it looked like he had a comb-over. I knew it was finally time for action. His curls are gone, but then again, they were mostly a figment of my overactive imagination anyways. This is the best after shot that I got. Sorry.

It really is much cuter than this picture, I'll have to do better tomorrow.

Other random thoughts:

• Our little neighbor friend showed Lainey how to unlatch the gate in the backyard this afternoon. If anyone is wondering why this would worry me, please click here.
• If you need a good laugh, I can almost guarantee one here. I was having difficulty breathing I was laughing so hard.
• For all of those who read this book, I have to say, NOT my favorite of his. All I'm gonna say is there better be a sequel. It just can't end this way.
• And for some sympathy, I just want you all to know that I know what its like to feed 5 children on my own. Two three year olds, one autistic two year old, and two just over 12 month olds (two of said children were of course my own). I babysit for a friend, and this week I had to feed them dinner three times. Luckily, it was unusual circumstances that led to this predicament, circumstances which hopefully will not be recurring any time soon. Tyler, fortunately for him, was working late 2 of the 3 days. I spoon fed 4 of the 5 kids. I've had a long week.

And now I stumble to my bed awaiting a calm night of blissful sleep. We'll see if I get it...
