Gracie and I got haircuts. Gracie's hair was in the awkward stage between needing to be cut and growing out. I get slightly annoyed with constantly pushing her hair out of her face. She didn't really care to wear barrettes or headbands and her bangs didn't quite fit in the ponytail yet. I cut my hair because I could I guess. I'm not a big fan of long hair; it kind of grosses me out. Dad cut his hair this weekend too! (If you know him, you know why this is significant!) He was able to donate a grand total of something like 18 inches of hair. Gracie's face after he cut it when Aunt Lorraine was holding up his ponytail was priceless. She said something like "Pa Pa hair gone." She cracks me up. She took a picture holding it up but it's on either mom or dad's camera. I'll have to get a copy on here. It's really funny looking.
I helped mom peel a whole mess of fresh shrimp and pick through crab meat for the most amazing seafood gumbo! Mom put a whole half gallon of oysters in it. I was so happy that I didn't have to dig for them. I had more trouble trying to get a scoop without them than with them. Anyway, the gumbo was AMAZING!
I thought I was going to get a chance to finish Gracie's dress. I laugh thinking about it now. I didn't even get a chance to finish cutting the fabric. Maybe next time...or the time after that...
I got to catch up with a friend from high school this weekend. It was really nice to talk about "back then." I hadn't seen her in almost 2 years and I can't remember what made us slowly lose touch. I am going to do my best to make sure that it doesn't happen again.
Anna is still growing like a weed. She is very ticklish! When you tickle her belly she just laughs and laughs. So so cute!! Gracie still loves her "Anna baby sister" very much.
Anna and Gracie slept in their room for the first time together last night. Anna slept so much longer in her bed than she did in the pack and play. I wish I would have moved her sooner. She only woke up once last night and somehow Gracie didn't even wake up! It was very strange to not have Anna with us but it's also very nice to know that we can put away that pack and play soon!
Yesterday morning Gracie was sick. She had a little bought of the pukes. Talk about pathetic. My heart broke watching her. She looked at me and said "Gracie needs medicine" and then it began. Luckily it was a fluke thing and not a bug because for the rest of the afternoon she was her overly active self.
Tonight is the concert Gregg and I are playing. It's at 7:30 at Guinn Auditorium on the campus of LC. You should come if you're in town; it's going to be a fun concert!
