Here you go, Sleesa. Sorry for the blog absence. Our life has been crazy since the holidays. The end of the semester is always difficult, but then we had company and lots of traveling. Then the funeral back in Atlanta. And we just got back last night from a weekend trip to Chicago. We visited a couple of church plants (looking for where we might head after seminary) and had some time with some of Mike's family. The weekend was cold by weather standards, but warm with fellowship (nice cheese, but I am serious).
These were the holiday haircuts for the kids. I've trimmed them a few times, but it is typically better (and safer) when my sister-in-law, Lisa does them. Plus, she has the cool capes. Just so you know, Lisa, Joseph has had another haircut since this - by Olivia "Truvy" McBride. We couldn't believe it. She has never been a precocious child. We had put her and Joseph down in the same room at Mike's uncle's - there were the typical noises of shenanigans, but Joseph was in the pack-n-play and well, Olivia really never gets into much. Something triggered my motherly instincts and so I went in to check on them - and found Olivia standing on a pillow, leaning over the side of the pack-n-play with my haircutting scissors in her hand! And Joseph was just smiling away, combing his hair with Mike's brush! There were little locks of his sweet reddish hair all in the bed. It really wasn't that big of a deal - his hair has been so slow come in and was longer on the top anyway - which is where she thought he needed the trim. I was more freaked about by the fact that Olivia is a bit of a klutz and I had horrible visions of her tripping and...well, no need to visualize. They were all fine and Joseph has that trendy mussed up hair look.
