A New Do....

I have been contemplating cutting Max's hair on my own for a while now. Last September my Mom and Aunt came out for visit and while they were here my Aunt who is a stylist cut Max's hair - well since then it has grown quite a bit....hence the big long spikes!

I have been cutting Karl's hair for quite a while now with clippers and do a pretty decent job (minus one little misstep a few weeks backs, but that has completely grown and he probably barely remembers it. HE HE!) BUT I have been wanting to cut Max's so I took a big gulp this afternoon and did it.

He did great....just sat there in Karl's lap and even had the chills the few times, almost like he liked me playing with his hair. I didn't go super short but it's pretty short.

He looks like such a little boy now....for whatever reason when we got done and were changing his shirt he was not very happy....

But he calmed down after that and just went out to the living room and started playing....he looks so cute I can't even stand it!

I can almost taste spring!

Spring is in the air here in New Jersey. It's supposed to be a high of 62' out today and I am loving it. Our tree in the front year already has some buds on it and some of our plants are starting to shoot up....YEAH!

It's supposed to drop back down to the forties last towards the weekend but I don't care, I have the spring bug! Now if I could just kick this last little bit of "trimester" sickness....or what some would call morning sicknes...HA if I only had it in the morning I would be golden!! LOL!

I am back!

Sort of. :)

This is my second day of feeling almost normal so I am hoping it's a trend....say a little prayer for me that the yucko days of being sick are gone!

Anyway I haven't been doing much for these last 6 weeks, kind of hibernating. We did go up to Vermont a few weeks ago, that was fun. Was only about a 6 1/2 sick (that is 1 being normal and 10 being worst.) Got to hang out with a childhood friend of Karl's and his wife and their son. Who is about 4 months younger than Max. It was really cute to see them play together!

We also had Mom-Mom and Opa down for a weekend visit, AND just this past week Nana and Papa Jim came out for a stay. It was nice having help! Thanks to all of our awesome grandparents who I would be lost without!

Anyway here are some random pics of Max that I took in February! Enjoy!

This last one if my favorit! I just love the look on his face and how serious he looks! I don't know how Karl got him to sit still for it but it cracks me up every time I see it!

I am alive....

Barely.
It's been a very rough couple of weeks and I am praying for the end of this "morning sickness." But I would like to rephrase that to "all day and night sickness."

I know that many of you have been wondering where I am and it's pretty much been the couch, bed, or toilet. Sorry to be so blunt but not feeling super whitty today.

I got a call from one of the girls in my playgroup today who just wanted to make sure I was alive and I thought I should post something so everyone would know that I was....I am here. Holding on and hoping that all this yuckiness will go away soon!
