Cora's Haircut

This morning I was combing Cora's hair and some of her hair was shorter than the rest. I was kind of confused on what was going on. I finally asked her is she cut her hair. Her response "Yes, it was in my eyes the other day when I was playing the computer, so I cut it off." Sure enough I went to the garbage next to the computer and there was a chunk of Cora's hair!

New Outfits

Thanks to Lourene the kids all had new outfits and were looking cute!

MoHawk

Tate had a mohawk for about two seconds. Mitch cut his hair and left a mohawk and when I told him "I didn't care if he kept it" he wanted it cut off. It was only cool if I didn't want him to have it I guess.

Clifford

A couple of weekends ago we met Clifford at the Madison Public Library. Cora was not impressed with him. We enjoyed Clifford from a distance.
