Mr. Man's first haircut

Aiden finally received his first haircut last Friday. He now officially looks like a little man! He loved it too. He was not so much excited about me cutting his hair with the scissors but he loved it when Phud pulled out the clippers! I think he loved the vibrations and the noise it made. He smiled a lot and sat very still for Phud. The girls were so excited about it that they too wanted their hair cut. So I cut about 5 inches off of Jaycie's hair and Charis got about 3 or so inches cut. It was Charis's first haircut as well. Yes, she is 3 and has never had her hair cut at all until this day. There certainly was a lot of hair flying around!

This was a squeal of excitement.

He was not a fan of the scissors at all!!

Charis had trouble standing still which made it all the more difficult to cut her hair!


Here they are after their haircuts!!! All ready to play with sidewalk chalk!

Jaycie's 5th Birthday

Well, almost a month later, here are the pictures from Jaycie's 5th Birthday party. She turned 5 on March 23rd. She is such an amazing little girl! I can't believe it has been 5 years already!

Here they are at cake time! Jaycie requested a castle cake last June. i spent two days on this cake for her. I also made her a little cake that was just for her.

This was her special cake on her special plate. We made the plate when she was about 2 months old right before we left Wake Forest, NC to move here. The pink flowers on this cake and on the castle cake were ones that I actually made. I think I made about 600! We have lots of them left over. :-)

Here is a close up of the castle cake. She was so excited that I made it for her. It was super delicious!
