Emma Lee's First Haircut




Emma Lee went to get her first haircut today. On the way she was a little confused, I could almost hear her thoughts remembering all the times I have drilled it in to her head that we are not supposed to cut hair (she had a little incident several months ago when she discovered a pair of scissors in a drawer - fortunately not much damage was done, but Mommy was not happy!). Anyway, she was open to the idea, especially when I told her that afterwards she could show her pretty haircut off to everyone. She was such a good girl, she hopped right up into the chair (afterall, the lady was offering her what Emma Lee calls a "sucker ball" and what everyone else in the world calls a dum dum). It was quite possibly the quickest $10 I've ever spent (no, I didn't spring for the $20 haircut at the fancy just for kids place), it took longer to pay for the haircut than it took for the actual haircut! Basically, she just evened up the back some - it had been looking messyand I think that this will make it looker neater and maybe a little thicker. I think that next time Mommy might try her hand at haircutting, at least until she gets enough to actually do something with. Hopefully, Emma Lee won't get any bright ideas about trying her hand at it again either!

Michaella,
They are adorable and I can't believe how big they've gotten. I have to e-mail you some pictures of the girls. Kamillah will be 7 in July and Kenya 6 in August. Can you believe that? Kyrie is growing like a weed. I wasn't sure if you had heard yet but number four is scheduled to be here around late Nov. or early Dec. We're really excited and hoping just a teeny bit that this is our boy. Happy and healthy is all that really matters though. Anyway, just wanted to say hi and hope that we can get together sometime in the near future. I'm sure the five girls together would have a blast.
Love To You All!
Amanda, Jaime, Kamillah, Kenya, Kyrie & baby
