First Haircut

I know I still owe everyone some pics of their first birthday weekend. We have some pics from the vineyard as well as them waking up that morning as well as the cake the next day and being in the pool. However, the boys had their first haircut yesterday as it was getting very very long. I love Tommy's, but I'm not crazy about Liam's. I couldn't get into with my hair stylist to have her do it, but I'll try again for next time. So we just went to the local barber and it was fine, but it was two different women who did it. The lady that did Tommy was confident (even though my marshmallow cried) and it's exactly what I wanted, nice and short. But she didn't give us a lock of his hair, so I took it off the chair later. The lady that did Liam (who I held for this event) was not as confident and was afraid to straighten up his hair around his ears and on the back of his neck, so I finished that at home while he was eating. I know that sounds gross and I'm all against touching hair when you are near food, but he was really happy and didn't mind what I was doing when he was eating chunks of cantelope. Here's the before and after pics.

It is AMAZING what a difference a haircut makes. They look like cute little adorable baby boys in the first photo but they look so grown up in the second! I can't believe they are a year old already!!

Thank you for the distraction - cutest one EVER!!!

They look so cute with their big boy haircuts. (They were cute before, but you know what I mean.)

Nugget's is getting shaggy and I'm having a hard time making plans to get it cut. I think I'm going to wait until after his first year pictures.

I can't BELIEVE how big they look with the haircuts.

They're so, so handsome.

BTW, working plus taking care of babies is near impossible.

My afternoons have been very unproductive with babies crawling all over me :)

Bouncing Back From Depression

I've been pretty depressed lately. Monday I hit my all time low, which coincidentally was also my dad's birthday. Needless to say I'm sure I'm on his not favorite child list as I forgot to call him I was so depressed. This whole two mortgage thing with no contract in site is really frustrating. Especially when lots of other houses on our block are selling. Our house is really very lovely, just no pool. It has a really flat backyard perfect for putting a pool in though. Anyway, on Monday, Mom called to make sure I didn't forget to call Dad and tell me she read my blog over the weekend and sent me an email about it. Sorry, Mom, I still have yet to check my emails to see what you had to say. Mom told me I needed to bury a statue of St. Joseph in the yard to get it to sell quicker. Wish I knew that sooner. I was going to wait for her to mail me hers, but yesterday I got really mad at myself and wanted to do something to improve my situation, so I found the nea...

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

The Boys Are Here!!!

I'm trying to post this from the hospital Internet access, but I will be able to do this announcement better justice from home, but it is a very odd, but short birth story. They came so fast and furious there was nothing anyone could do. But the boys are in the NICU and doing well. They were born at 31 weeks 5 days gestation on 5/29/2009. I will post their names and information (no comments on names unless you like them, LOL): Baby A: Thomas Michael III born at 2:09 AM Weight - 3 lbs, 15 1/2 oz Length - 18 inches Baby B: Liam Jonathan born at 2:20 AM Weight - 4 lbs, 1.4 oz Length - 17 1/4 inches long Just a word on their health, Thomas's breathing is doing well and he did not need any help in that area so far. I had two steroid shots from when I was admitted until before they were born, so I think that helped. Liam was intubated and given surfactant when he arrived in the NICU and is now on CPAP, although he can't stand having the tubes in his nose. Both are under t...
