Bella's haircut



It finally happened... Bella cut her own hair.

It was bound to happen. All kids do it, right? Well, she came from our upstairs bathroom afater brushing her teeth telling me that the barrettes did it. Did what I ask...then I see it.

SHORT pieces of hair above both sides of her ears. She literally cut the barrettes out! (now, she usually pulls them out which BREAKS her hair...not much better, but it looks awful!) We tell her that she has to go to bed without "rocking" because she's ruined her hair (real dramatic, right?).

She gets in bed and starts crying saying she is NOT going to school ANY MORE because everyone will think her hair is ugly! I calm her down by sayin that I can disguise it with 2 pony tails. She says ok and that she will 'never' take them out so no one can see it.

Oh my...

Last week of Summer Vacay!

The last week before school started for us, we tried to plan it with a lot of activities! First, Bella had her choreography clinic to learn her jazz dance. Adorable!!! Then, the next day, Liv had lyrical choreography clinic where she learned her AWESOME lyrical dance! (SUPER excited about that one!!!)



On Wednesday, we went to the Overbrook pool with the Wooten's. Bella and Jace were cracking us up with that big dragon float!






Then we took Liv to meet her teacher at LISA Academy and I went from there to a photo shoot. The next day, the kids had a great time in the pool (as almost every day!)







Then on Friday, it was Hayden's last day to work at Larry's pizza before going off to college. We went to see him, and the girls got really lucky with the tickets! Bella got over 400!






Just before we were leaving, a girl went up to Hayden and gave him a hug bye. Bella saw it and blurted out, "Who is THAT?" His family (which was sitting a few tables over) heard her and died laughing! Hayden thought it was hilarious that Bella was jealous...

On Saturday, we kept Cooper for the morning and Renea, Kenny and Sydney came over for lunch and played for a bit. I took Coop home for a nap and Kenny stayed to play with the girls for a while. That evening, I took Olivia to go with them, the Pate's Karen Bowren and Shannon to see Step Up 3D. It was really good!

Then on Sunday, we had to be up at the dance studio to sign up for duets and solo lessons. Luckily, I got the day we wanted ... Thursdays. (since Bella will be up there anyway)
