Hair Cut and Sucker

So, this little girl has been needing her hair cut for a while. She is 2 1/2 after all but I kept putting it off because I just couldn't bear the thought of cutting off her curly blond newborn hairs. It always made me sad thinking about it.

but when it looked like this everyday.....


I decided enough was enough! Her "bangs" were always getting in her face and itching her nose and again, it always looked somewhat like this...


I let my fear go and took her little neglected head to get her hair cut!


She was really nervous at first and then it turned into an all out fit!


So sad... 
But then the hair stylist offered her a sucker and it was smooth sailing!


That lady could have done whatever she wanted with that girls hair and she wouldn't have cared a bit!
Though, she still looked at me as if I was gonna pay for making her go through this later.

And boy did I pay. We had a rough afternoon her and I...
( Although it was probably more from her lack of nap than actual revenge but I guess I will never know)

But it was worth it!


The cut is PERFECT! It looks so cute on her! 
Even if it does make her look less like my "baby" and more like a little grown-up.
I am okay with it (no I'm not) because it just fits her so well!

Hopefully as it grown out i will start to see some curls again... Wishful thinking I guess.

Well Played, Child


Me- Kenna what does a fishy say?

Makenna- Water, water, water!

Wouldn't have thought of that... 
She definitely keeps me laughing!

My Day

My Day looked like this.


And that was at a "better" part of the day...

fever, aches, chills, sweats, nausea, vomiting, contractions....

I felt REALLY fabulous.
seriously. every 8 month pregnant lady should get the flu....

and just when i start to think i am feeling better and might be able to take on the responsibilities i have waiting for me the next day the aches and nausea come back.

This sucks.

Halloween

Our Halloween went a little like this.

A parade on Friday morning for the K-3rd graders at Bugs school!
She looked so cute and had lots of fun!


 Then last night as soon as Dale got home from work we ran out the door to make it to Mom and Dad Whipples ward Halloween party.

Mak could not have been more excited to get into her Dorothy Dress!
She has been telling us everyday for a couple weeks that she was gonna be "Dorofy"

Too cute!
She asked to open every piece of candy the second she got it! There was no way she wanted to wait....
Too bad for her!


 Riley was excited to get back in her costume for some more fun and trick-or-treating!


We trick-or-treated around Mom and Dad Whipples neighborhood then went to see my parents.

By the end of the night Makenna was as awake and hyper as could be and Riley was so exhausted and grumpy and we went home fast and the girls were asleep faster than ever!

Thanks Halloween!
