Mullet No More

Poor Mags has had a reverse mullet since she started sprouting hair. For some odd reason, her hair grows on both sides but doesn't seem to make much progress in the middle. (See picture below)

Well not any more. Maggie got the star treatment at Sweet and Sassy last Wednesday and she has a big-girl haircut. She was a bit of a wiggle worm so I ended up holding her for her cut, but she posed for pictures and we have the lock of hair in her baby book. Hopefully the middle will now grow with the sides...we'll see!

Thanksgiving programs

The girls each had their Thanksgiving program at school yesterday so Ryan and I had to split up to cover both of their classes. Lucky for Ryan, he got to see both girls perform because Kate's started late and Maggie's finished quickly...probably because 1 year olds don't sing and the teachers can only entertain the parents for so long!

Ryan did take 3 pictures of Maggie in her class but that was all he could get because instead of sitting up front with her friends, she instead chose to sit in Ryan's lap for the performance!

Doing great so far

Oh no...spotted Daddy in the crowd

Performing is such hard work!

Kate, on the other hand, was a happy and willing performer. She wasn't as into it as I thought she'd be, considering she's been walking around the house for 2 weeks singing "5 Fat Turkeys," but she did participate and have a great time. You'll notice that her favorite song is the "Squirrel" song...she sings that alot around the house too!

Cowgirl

The week before Halloween was Western week at school and Kate and her school friends dressed like cowboys and cowgirls, pretend roasted marshmallows in their classroom, and made trail mix for snack.

Here are a couple pictures of Kate the cowgirl:

Halloween week in review

Wow! Halloween is over and I can say that I'm glad to see it go for another year. While I love Halloween, costumes, candy, and all the fun stuff that goes along with it, I just want to know when it became a week-long plus celebration?! That said, I do feel like we got our money's worth out of the girls' costumes, they had a great week, and we ended up with lots of candy so Halloween was a success!

Hope everyone had a safe and happy Halloween! Now onto Thanksgiving or like the Tulsa radio station that's already playing "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer", onto Christmas!
