Hair cut

The little guy has been needing a small trim for quite some time. I know that you look at his hair and don't see much, but he had some hair on the sides of his head that been growing since birth and they were long. When I say long, I mean he was starting to look like he was an old man with these long hairs coming out of  his ears, only the hair was right above his ears. Anyways, we couldn't handle it any longer and took out the trimmer. (Keep in mind that Camden hates buzzing/loud noises. As in, I can't even vacuum unless Geoff is home to take him outside because he screams bloody murder the entire time and I feel bad making him sit and scream like that when our entire house is carpet.) So, one night before bed we trimmed his side hairs. He did not like it one bit. Screaming and trying to grab whatever he could to make it stop and get away. But he looks so much better without  those long man hairs.

 What is happening?!

 Mom, stop taking pictures and save me! Please!

 Seriously...are you done yet?!  (Also notice the girls faces in the mirror. It is pretty funny.) Don't worry. He recovered nicely and went to bed just fine. :)

 Addie was playing the other day and was trying to be fancy... this is the result. She has Camden's toys all up her arms and dangling necklaces. Silly girl. When she gets in a fancy mood, we must refer to her as fancy and not Addie. Best part is that she actually will respond when you call her that!

 Addie got to bring home "COCO" the bear from school this weekend. It has been quite the exciting event. They have been talking about this for a couple of weeks and how much fun it will be and all of the things that they will do with him, etc. So, when Addie came home from school, she said: "mom, I am going to hide Coco bear so when Macie gets home I can surprise her!" So when Macie got home, Addie said "Macie, I have a surprise for you from school!" Macie's immediate reaction was: "Is it Coco bear?! Did you get to bring him home?!" (Seriously the excitement was hilarious!) So they have had a great weekend with Coco. We had to document what we did with him. Here the girls are with Coco decorating witch hat cookies for the ward party. I have to laugh when I look at this picture because both of the girls have huge cheeks that are filled with chocolates! Haha!

This little guy thinks that he is ready to start walking!!! Every time you go to set him down, he refuses to sit and will just stand there until he realizes he can't move, and then he will fall down and start to crawl. But yesterday when he woke up from his nap, I set him down in the toy room to go and torture play, with the girls and instead of falling, he took 4 steps. All on his own!! I yelled to Geoff to bring up the camera, but the little guy refused to walk again. I am sure that the next few days will bring more walking and more baby proofing!!! He also learned to clap this week! It is so darn cute! He is getting so big.

One more thing that I thought was so funny this week: On Thursday after picking Macie up from school, I asked her how her day was. She said: "Good. The worst part was when we had to watch Monster's Inc." Trying to hold in the laughter, I said, "Did you watch the whole thing? and why are you watching that show?"
Macie: "No, we didn't watch the whole thing, it is going to take us a couple of weeks to watch it. We are watching it because we are starting to learn about monsters."
I had to laugh. Seriously...what child would say that the worst part of their day was having to watch a pixar show!? Only my daughter would think that that was so awful!
