December update

So way back from October, here are the kids at S's school Halloween party
P went as a scarecrow--the same costume I made for S for her first Halloween. R was a pilot.
R enjoying a trick or treat sucker
Daddy taking some creative photos of S playing on the back patio
This is one of the most common poses for R--staring up into the sky at a plane passing overhead, often a big transport plane from nearby Travis Air Force Base.
Boo!
Our smiley girl...
which is why we did a smiley face theme for her first birthday, in November.

"I'm ONE!"
Grammy and Grampy were here for the party, from IL. Grammy made the dress P is wearing!
A few weeks later was Thanksgiving, and family from Ohio were here to visit. Our church hosts a "Turkey Bowl" football game early on Thanksgiving Day. P wasn't too thrilled to be there...
R wasn't too thrilled either, but only b/c he was too little to play football with all the big people. So sad.
But S had a ball cheering for Dad.
So, as a reference point, take a good look at S's bangs in this picture of her jumping at the bounce house place, earlier in the week. Now you see 'em...
...now you don't.
That's right, Thanksgiving Day she found the hair-cutting scissors sitting on the bathroom counter, and decided to give her bangs a trim, down to the scalp. Good thing the rest of her hair was in braids!
And finally, here is P with her latest accomplishment, climbing the stairs...hooray P!

Oh Miranda! Not the hair! Why do kids do that???? I'm just waiting for one of mine to do it...with three of them I'm guessing it's just a matter of time before one of them gets left alone with scissors! I guess you could look at it this way, at least she didn't poke her eye out! =) And it will grow back!
Thanks for the post...I was missing your sweet babies' faces!

It's just hair. I chop mine all off on a regular basis. :)
Missing you all today. Wish we could ship some snow your way. Praying you have a blessed Christmas!
