Sarah's First Hair Cut

Waiting while Daddy got his haircut

Well, the time had come for Sarah's first haircut. She was developing a mullett in the back and it was looking rather scraggly. Ms. Debbie got it all evened up and it looks so much better. She was a good girl. She watched Brian get his hair washed and then cut. When it came time she didn't want to sit in the chair by herself so Brian held her. She was a good girl (distracted by fruit chews). One down, one to go. However, it may be a while before Molly is ready for her first hair cut.

Snip, snip, the first curls cut off.

Wait! How much did she cut off???

Happy Halloween!!!!

Ms. Ashleigh takes the best pictures!

Go Hogs! This was our second Halloween and the girls enjoyed it even more than last year. We went to Southwest Fall Festival and the girls, Molly especially enjoyed walking around. She got upset when Brian would stop walking with her. There were too many people for Sarah and she got scared, so she spent quite a bit of time being held by either Grandpa, Grandma, or me.

We saw many friends, but our favorite was Ms. Kathy who gave us popcorn. I think it was the highlight of the evening for the girls......until they found the crayons and the coloring sheets. On our way home we stopped and saw our friends Mike and Cindy and had a ball playing with Lucy (who is a dachshund). Molly enjoyed playing with her long tail and Sarah just wanted to pet her. We got in bed VERY late, but it was all worth it!

Sarah LOVED her popcorn!

Dad definitely had his hands full!

Wow....I haven't posted in a LONG time.

We have been so busy with company and cousins and shut down. Things have been busy! Joy, Colby and Jake left us and the girls are lonely.

I forgot to mention our zoo trip. Brian's company picnic was at the zoo this year and the zoo was pretty fun, but it was hot and the girls got warm and cranky! So we left early and headed to the hotel and that is where the fun began. The girls had a ball! They jumped up and down on the bed, played in the closet, and ran around chasing each other until they were just about to drop they were so tired!

Molly loved it....Sarah.....hated it!

Brian had shut down last month and the girls and I took a much needed trip to KY to visit Brian's family. Brian is so busy on the weekends that we don't make time to travel. We had a WONDERFUL time and it was so nice to get to see everyone. We drove up on a Sunday and then Monday went to Kuttawa to visit Brian's Nanny and his Aunt Teresa. Then Monday night everyone was so sweet and had a dinner for us.....well not really for us, but everyone came out to visit us. Brian's Aunt Beth and her family, Jamie and the kids, Brock and Kimberly, Grandma Joann and of course Meme and Peepaw were there. It was a nice trip, we came home on Thursday just in time to meet Brian at home. He sure was pleased to see his girls!

The girls sure love playing outside. The weather has been perfect!

A Busy Week!

We have had a busy week at our house. The girls have had a visit from their Aunt Joy, Uncle Colby and cousin Jake. Cousin Jake has been staying with us and will be here for a while so quite a few of our pictures will be of him with us.

Just call us sock hands! Grandma got us some black and red socks on sale and we found them in our closet the other day and we have enjoyed putting them on our hands and feet and having a good ole time. I could barely get them to sit still long enough to take a picture. It was cute!
We are such good helpers with cousin Jake. When he doesn't know how to play with a toy we are right there to help......and I mean right there.
This is Jake getting A LOT of instruction from us.
We are so sweet to let Jake play in our room. Usually it is no boys allowed, but we made an exception for Jake.

Good Helpers

The other day Brian put a filter underneath the sink in the kitchen and the girls were "helping". Sarah really was holding the flash light for him and Molly was just snooping around. Too cute!

Girls Playing Hard

We have found some new toys that we like. Our new favorite toys are the Weebles, but we haven't been "caught on camera" yet with them.

Sarah and her purse. She puts toys in it and carries it around.

Nothing comes between a girl and her cell phone. She carries it around and opens it up and talks on it. Very cute!

Some old toys revisited. With cousin Jake coming we have gotten ready some old toys and the girls found them interesting....for a fleeting moment.

While this is not a new "toy" they girls have discovered Sesame Street and like to watch it in their "big girl chair" . They use their big girl stool to climb in and out of it.

A Jean Jacket and The Incredible Hulk

(you wouldn't like me when I am angry) A quote from the Hulk for those of you who do not remember it. Sarah loved the jacket and Molly loved getting out more clothes to be worn on top of the jacket and outfit she was already wearing. By the time I got this picture I think there were 4 layers. That is why she looks so bulky!

I just want to be taller! Sarah would not take off the jacket for anything. Molly tried it on that day and hated it! She cried until I took it off.

Then 2 days later Molly finally got with the program and loved it. Of course because she didn't want me to I didn't snap it so she figured out how to take it off. Silly girl. They are both such hams for the camera.

Now this one is one of my favorites. The girls were playing with the left over nets I had from VBS and Brian and I put them on their heads and they looked like Little House on the Prairie girls. Too cute. It is funny to me how they will let you put ANYTHING on their heads!!!
