Oakley's New Haircut

Well, I did it...I had Rhonda cut all of Oakley beautiful blond hair off! I loved his hair and loved it long! I didn't really want to cut it, but at the same time I was kind of curious to see what it would look like short. Finally, after tons of debate I told Rhonda, "just do it." I thought I might cry, but I held strong and didn't shed a tear. How do I feel about it now? I like it a lot. (As always, Rhonda did a great job!) Do I like it as much as I did before? I'm not sure yet...it is pretty cute on him, but I LOVE longer hair on little boys. Oh well, it is just hair and it grows back. I guess I just had a hard time letting go. Now he looks like a totally different kid...a kid...not a baby...not a little bitty boy...a kid. On second hand, I am not sure I am ready for him to look so grown up yet. Guess I better let that go too. Everyday he gets one day older! Where did my baby go!!!!


So what do you guys think? Long or Short?

It's cute, really makes his eyes shine :) As to long/short...that's up to you and what you want to keep up with. I'm not a huge fan of long hair, but I didn't consider his previous locks long..I loved the way his hair blew in wind for beach pics. Typical Sarah, you're reversed...most people go short in summer when it's warm, I'll be his ears are in total shock with the temperature!!

OH MY GOODNESS SARAH!! What did you do with my little Oakley!!!?? lol He seriously looks like a different kid. BUT a very cute kid! I love his long hair, but I must say he's awfully handsome with this new cut too.

He looks like so different! He looks more like Jason with his hair cut short! Oaks will be a doll with short or long hair!

Cold Days of February

Image
Even though it's cold outside, we still try to have as much fun as we can!  This particular week in February ended with a ton of fun at Great Wolf Lodge.  Jason and I decided that instead of buying the kids more "things" for Christmas, we would buy them experiences.  We hadn't been to Great Wolf since Lakelyn was one.  Avery and Oaks had been talking about going back, and were always telling Lakelyn how much fun it was.  We made a cute little note and wrapped it in a box to give them Christmas morning.  Needless to say, when they opened it, they were super excited.  Might of been the best response ever to a Christmas gift!  Beautiful snowflakes! Isn't God's beauty AMAZING!  My little Elsa watching Frozen on this snowy day.  This costume has been worn more than any other in this house!  Family challenge of who can do a handstand push up.  I lost, but I will get them next time!  lol!  Morning s...

1|52 Looking ahead, with 2017 just a reflection. My hope for 2018 is to simplify my life. Spend more one on one time with each kiddo, take more walks in the woods, sit and talk more, laugh and enjoy each other to the fullest. Oaks and I took a walk to the river today, just the two of us. It was seriously cold, but it was sweet to have some time with him. Cheers to the new year!

February Fun

At one time, February was my least favorite month.  Now I can honestly say it is one of my favorites.  Basketball is winding down, softball is only once a week and baseball, and soccer have yet to start.  Jason isn't crazy busy and we seem to have more time at home together.  These are the moments I cherish.  Again, wrestling is always a favorite activity!  Daddy got the new basketball goal put up and the kids stayed out way past dark to shoot hoops.  These two were glued to a movie.  Lakelyn was so excited to get a bag of M&M's to put in her "M&M Trophy" as she calls it.  Oakley has been wearing these house shoes every night.  Lakelyn was walking her dog! lol! Hanging out in "mine and my sisters" bedroom at Papa and Granny's.  Mom, Uncle Mike, and Oaks are looking at old pictures.  Avery, Lakelyn and Aunt Kat are playing barbies.  This bedroom will forever hold a special ...
