When I see the back of my james sitting on the floor like this, something just tugs at my heart, and I know that there is nothing precious or more dear.




James and Ellie got new Sunday Duds. Yes, I know James is spitting in the one, but really it was better than the alternatives.

I thought I would record this moment for posterity, it is a rare moment indeed when James and Ellie both have a nap. ...okay it's nonexistent. she's really just watching a movie. But hey, I can pretend right?


Yep, got my hair cut. Hasn't been short for awhile. I took James with me and I felt like I was sitting by a time bomb. He was very good considering we were there a very long time. I warned the lady that my hair is hard to cut well. She rather scoffed at me, and said "she never gives a bad haircut", an hour later I think she was starting to believe me, another half-an-hour and I think she was going crazy, but luckily I had chosen a perfectionist and she wasn't quiting until all the hairs were in line. She seems rather frazzled when she was done, but hey she may have won a client for life. I paid her double and left with a smile.
P.S. When Ellie saw my haircut she had a conniption fit and started bawling and yelling at me that I wasn't beautiful anymore and my hair was ugly. When we got home she walked up to me shaking her head and looking at my hair and said "You should've taken me with you."
