Joe Dirt and some other stuff

On Saturday, April 10th, Emily and William got their first haircuts! I was not overly excited about this task, but knew it needed to be done, mainly for William’s sake. His hair was shaggy, which may be in style for some people, but not really for us. He has small curls in the back though, curls that make him seem like a baby boy, NOT a big boy yet. And I didn’t know how I’d cut it…but once we got there, I couldn’t cut them off. They were trimmed, and the top was cut a lot, but the back…is still slightly long. What some might call…a mullet. Or as everyone else says, he now looks like Joe Dirt. I don’t care, I’m keeping my Joe Dirt a little longer, I just can’t part with all of his locks just yet.

They did great with the cut though. William went first. She put on the little apron, sat him in the booster seat and he just sat there. He barely made a peep. Emily did about the same. She was a bit more inquisitive, she looked around and chatted a bit, but no tears were shed, no screaming, nothing eventful at all.

We went to the park on Sunday for a mini picnic…

And tonight we went shopping for the first time in the car buggy at Publix. I always use my stroller, so I don’t go huge shopping when I have them by myself. But tonight I figured it was time to try it out. We went in in a regular buggy, but then switched when we got inside and found the car. I don’t know if we just had a bad buggy, but man oh man, this car was HARD to steer! We hit several displays and I had to back up several times to get around certain corners. The babies loved it though, even though they chewed on the steering wheels…YUCK! I wasn’t prepared for that, so there wasn’t anything I could do to stop it. I did get some help in the parking lot though, someone took my buggy back to the car corral for me, so that was nice.

Lastly, my babysitter is great. She does all sorts of fun stuff with the kids, they play outside, they go places, they learn, they have fun, and they play dress up! Lol….
