Just a little trim....

So after Kenadie's birthday in May I had her hair cut into an A-line that was a little longer than chin length. I cut almost 8" off her hair. I thought it would be cooler for summer and it made her look like a big girl. So this morning I went to get my hair cut and colored and Jason picked up Kenadie from a sleepover and said to help me out he would take her to get just a trim because it really needed it. I was a tiny bit nervous but I thought it was nice of him to take care of one errand that I would not have to do today. So I get home from my hair appointment and errands to find this.....



Don't get me wrong, I love it. I think her hair is cute no matter what but goodness...it is SO SHORT. I will just have to remind Jason next time that little girls cuts are a little bit different than a little boy haha! (Her hair was a little bit more styled, she just woke up from a nap)

You're as old as you feel....

I haven't blogged in a while. Its been super crazy lately. It seems like there is always something crazy going on. Jason's 30th birthday was Thursday. I am glad he joined the club. His birthday dinner had a way better turn out than I had hoped. I invited 15 people and 29 showed up. It was a lot of fun. He is a pretty popular guy. I always say how bummed I am to be 30 about to be turning 31 and complain about a few wrinkles I have and my annoying wiry grays that have snuck up on me and the fact that I cannot stay up past 9:15 to save my life anymore lol. I also wonder if I have done all the things I should have up to this point. I felt this way until I had a talk with my very wise mommy on Jason's birthday. She was saying how many wonderful things are ahead of me that were different from the first 30 years of my life and even alot different than my 20's. She reminded me of just how much I have grown and all the things I have accomplished.

Sure there's the hard stuff like the fact that Jason and I are already down a parent and I just had a friend from High School lose her mother in law. Its crazy. However, I still get to raise my darling little daughter and experience all the fun things she is about to experience. I even might be lucky enough to raise another child. I am still young enough to finish nursing school. So when my friends say 30 is the new 20, there is some truth to it. :)

Now, I am really tired...and am going to take a nap! LOL

Liar, Liar

I just have to say how proud I am of Kenadie. She said something today that made me proud as a mom that I am teaching her the right things and its sinking in. Kenadie is pretty much obsessed with soccer. Her favorite movie is Bend it Like Beckham. Its a movie about a girls soccer team in England. One of the girls in the movie, Jesminda, is an Indian girl who's family does not approve of soccer. They don't want her playing. They want her at home learning cultural cooking and finding an Indian husband. Long story short, she lies to her parents and tells them she has a summer job so she can go play. Usually when Kenadie watches the show she is so entranced that she doesn't talk. I was sitting there watching it with her and she was upset and scowling. I said what's wrong peanut? She said, " Mom, she shouldn't be playing. She telled lies to her mama and that's not the right thing." She said I will never lie to you mommy. I will tell you the truth because then you won't be mad. I will just tell you I like soccer and you will let me play. It was so cute. I hope this carries into the teenage years!
