Haircuts by Jennifer

So, I bought some clippers at Wal-Mart and I cut the boys' hair. I must say that I'm pretty impressed with how the cuts turned out and how easy it was to do. Their haircuts were $10 a piece at a salon, plus tip. I decided to give it a try and see if I could save us some money and I'm totally happy with the result!

Here's Danny:


Danny from the back:


Ben (he has a really strong cowlick right in the front that always looks kind of messy):

Another shot of Ben (he is perpetually naked):


Ben from the back (he was my first "victim" so I didn't get the back cut as nicely as I would like. Plus, he was getting pretty squirmy by the end. Still, though, it looks fine):

Hooray for me!

Crayons...

...were not meant for the couch, Benjamin.






He also colored on Danny's bed and the plug for the baby monitor. Why?

First day of Preschool '09

Danny had his first day of school today.

Here he is on the front porch, ready to go:

Coloring in between Levi and Jake:

So far so good. His teachers seem very nice and nurturing. Friday is "Take your favorite stuffed animal to school". I'm guessing Dora, the reindeer will be visiting school. Then, that night, Dora will be getting a bath in the washing machine :0)
