Kaylee’s first hair cut.

I took pictures of the after, but not of the before or during. So the before shots aren’t the best. But hopefully you’ll get an idea of what the back of her hair looked like, and it’s length. Jon held her while I cut the bottom two inches off the back of her hair to get rid of her lovely mullet she was sporting. She did great. So now she has a little baby A-line that we think is really cute. It’s hard to tell in the pictures with the angle. Also her rub spot is filling in, but all her new hair is coming in a very light brown so she still looks sparse in the back.

I think she likes it. Oh, I gave Jon a haircut too so now Kaylee doesn’t have anything to hold on to for Daddy shoulder rides. Jon likes that, but I sort of miss her grabbing on tightly and securely. Oh well, Jon’s careful with her.

Jack’ee’s surprise

This last weekend was really fun. We had planned to spend time helping our friends Matt & Angie, but Jack’ee called (late Fri. night) & informed us of a surprise visit. So our morning was spent at the LeFevre’s, & Kaylee & I spent the afternoon & evening with Jack’ee at my parents house. Jon stayed with Matt to finish their bathroom addition (it looks so good). My hair was in desperate need of a good cutting, so while my hairstylist (Jack’ee) was in town I got a new do. Jack’ee had to cut half of it off just to get a brush through it. Anyway I think I lost 10 lbs. just by getting a hair cut. I was very happy to say goodbye to the rats nest. It took Kaylee a few days to get use to it (it was sort of funny). It was so nice to see Jack’ee even for a short visit. The last time we saw her was about four months ago. Kaylee has changed so much since then. Having Jack’ee visit reminded me how much Kaylee has grown. She’s a little person now. Oh & can I just point out that Jack’ee never gets to see the sun working graveyard, & I go on walks with Kaylee everyday, & I’m still pasty white (even with makeup) next to my sister. It’s no wonder Jon didn’t believe she was my sis. when I introduced them that fist time. He was expecting a white girl that looked like me. Arn’t genetics fun. 🙂 We are all so excited for January to see Auntie Jack’ee again.

New friends.

The Relief Society in my ward does mini classes, & I signed up to teach rice & beans. So while I was teaching my class how to make Spanish rice & beans. Kaylee was making a new friend. Jon got to watch the girls play. Apparently Kaylee completely lost their wrestling match. Baby Brittany is 7 1/2 mo. old & has 3 older siblings. I got some cute photos of the girls playing. Jon was pretty impressed with how well Kaylee sits. I guess I need to be better at telling him when she does stuff. She’s been sitting well by herself for about a week now.

This photo just made me laugh. Jon got Kaylee ready for bed after everyone left, & her hair was just awesome from being in a pony all day. She has the best funky-licious hair. If we don’t get it brushed right out of the bath she ends up with what Aunt Deb calls old lady hair (you know the short perm do). It’s got some of my curl in it, so it can be a challenge. But we love it! Any way it takes shapes really well. This night she had a great Mohawk going. Also Jake had just called, so as is now usual she gets the phone.
