Good News!

I am almost 37 weeks pregnant and I found out at my last ultrasound that I won't have to have a c-section. My placenta is 2cm out of the way... yipee! So this little man gets to pick his own birthday just like my other kids. The scheduled delivery does have some appeal, but I would rather have a labor day. So I am very grateful that it all worked out.

I have been MIA for a while again because, well other than being exhausted... I lost my power cord to my computer (actually only half of it). I am so scatterbrained these days, which I am going to full heartedly blame on my pregnant brain. I really hope it turns up because it was brand new and I only had it for a week or two. The good news is that Brandon was able to modify a cord he found at the thrift store for 80 cents, but I don't know how long it will last. I'm just hoping this rigged cord will give me enough time to find the one I just bought. I honestly feel like I've looked everywhere but obviously not, because I haven't found it. I hate it when something is lost! (But I am so thankful for my computer savvy husband!)

Today my princess and I had a fun girls day out. We both went to the salon to get haircuts. I finally persuaded her to cut her hair again. She still has baby hair around her face plus bangs growing out so I wanted to cut it in a bob again to have it all the same length. I've always been the one to cut her hair so she felt super special to have it done in a salon. (Plus it was only $5 because I had a coupon for her haircut.. which was worth it to not have to do it and clean it all up). She was so funny afterwards because she kept looking in the mirror and swinging her hair back and forth... she couldn't stop checking herself out! It's really cute on her (I'm not biased or anything). I think the hair dresser may have layered it a little short on one side, but it will grow out. Plus Isabelle likes it so thats all that matters. I have to admit that I will miss the updos we did with her long hair, but I'm not going to have too much time to do hair in the very near future. So I'm glad Isabelle was willing to do what I wanted. She and I kinda have matching cuts... both short to the chin but now mine is auburn! I have never done anything but highlights so it is a litter different to see myself with darker hair, but change is good! Brandon even likes it. But I don't know if I can trust his opinion because he has never NOT liked how I've cut my hair, and I can't say if thats good or bad (there was one cut when it looked a little too boyish, so it's a good thing my hair grows really fast). I am grateful that my hubby thinks I look good with short, long, blonde, or red hair. It is really fun to experiement!

I have a before and after of Isabelle... and I'll try to get a picture of me tomorrow since it's new years and I'll have a real excuse to make sure I'm in a picture!

Hide-N-Seek

When Brandon gets home from school it's typical for the kids to hide from him so they can be found and tickled to death. Tonight Brandon got home around 6:30 and the kids had already eaten... so they had to try to wait until he ate. But when he sat down to eat he had two little boys pestering him to play hide-n-seek. This was the conversation... (the boys were both hiding under the table while Brandon was seated at the table eating)

Landon: Daddy you have to find us!
Daddy: Where could those little stinkers be?
Levi: You have to look in all of the rooms!
Daddy: Or maybe I should just look under the table since I can hear you two!
Landon: (Whispers to Levi) Don't say anything!

I guess they figured that daddy would forget where they were if they became quiet all of the sudden. :0)

These little people are pure entertainment!
