Okay, so what do you all think?! Isn't she beautiful? We didn't even get her permission. She cried the whole way to the salon.
The last time we cut Aubrey's hair was last year. The first time we cut it, we cut off about 4 inches, this time we cut off about 6 1/2inches. I was tired of combing through the snarls and fighting with her to do her hair everyday. So Yesterday I decided it was time, time to just chop it. Of course I got threatened by my mother because all little girls should have long beautiful hair. Aubrey's hair was beautiful, but only just after I did it, by the end of the day it was nothing but snarls.
I decided to try Cookie Cutters. It was such a cute, fun atmosphere. They get to sit in cute little cars and watch a movie. Aubrey didn't want to watch a movie or even look at the girl cutting her hair. See, he is her problem, Aubrey not only thought that getting your haircut hurt you, but that in order to get a hair cut, it meant that you would look like a boy.She didn't want short boy hair.
After it was all done and the lady got her to look in the mirror and told her how pretty she looked, Aubrey started to smile. She loved her new haircut. We had to go to Walmart and as we walked through the store Aubrey would look at me and say. "Mom, that lady (or whoever) looked at my beautiful hair!" Later at night she wanted to go for a walk so that "maybe when the neighbors go get the mail they will see my new beautiful hair!" She is so silly! Well, I think that she looks beautiful and we both glad that it was done.

What?? Already!!
I cannot believe that Zach is old enough to go to kindergarten! His first day was last week. He was pretty excited to go up until the moment we started getting ready and then he got upset cause he didn't want me to spike his hair. After I did his hair he walked out of the bathroom and messed it up. I had to do it twice before he would leave it alone! He had a tantrum and we had a hard time getting out the door, but once he saw the neighbor boy Michael out walking to school he was all excited again. The boys walked together, which took his mind of his hair.
We got to the school and I watched him play on the little playground until the teachers came out to get the kids. They had the kids all line up on these giant colored circles. I watched him walk inside the building as I held back the tears. I walked with a few other moms in the neighborhood and didn't want to cry in front of them all.
It was a big day and every mom worries about their kids. You want them to be happy and you want them to make friends. Zach seemed to do okay cause he has already made some friends. I love you Zachary! I am very proud of you want nothing but the best for you.
