Alana :: Hair update

We didn't want to make Alana more self conscious than she already was, after our 5 year old son took a scissors to her hair, so we gave it a day or so before we took her picture. She's okay now, and seems to have forgotten the whole deal already. That's what I love about kids... they are resilient. What happens to that when we grow up? When we get older and "mature", we end up holding on to things WAY too long. Two days and she's totally over it. Adults, we need to take lessons from our kids sometimes.

Here's a strand of original length hair that Jackson missed....

The culprit.

I know.

You're asking "Surely that innocent little boy couldn't pull off something so naughty."

Then, it was time for Alana's birthday party! She turned 4 yesterday, and we threw a little family party in her honor...

Stella chips in her two cents...

Our kids love to play kitchen. In fact, we have a "kitchen" set up in our basement, where they take orders, and use pot holders and kitchen utensils to create "meals" for us. So Jodi bought them (among other things) chef hats!
