Saige's New Do




After much consideration and many tears when it came time to fix Saige's hair she decided to have her hair cut and donated to "Locks of Love." I almost cried when I cut her long beautiful hair off but I'm happy to know that another child will have the opportunity to have Saige's hair. Saige LOVES her new haircut and I think that when it comes time to fix her hair in the mornings, I will love it too :)!

Funny girl...


Today Rylie was excited to tell us a story that her teacher had told to her. The story went as follows...

"Mom, today I heard the saddest story from my teacher. Her kids, when they were little got a marker and they wrote all over themselves. One of them got a purple marker and wrote all over his body and one had a green marker and the other had a red one. And GUESS WHAT!? It was PREGNANT marker!"


* Some of us know them as PERMANENT Markers.

Rylie's School Picture

Rylie's 1st grade picture. Her wound doesn't look too bad considering how bad it looked 2 days before when it happened. She's getting so grown up though, I can't believe she is in 1st grade and learning so much.

CRAZY HAIR DAY!!!




Rylie was very excited about her crazy hair!

Ouch!

Last night as we were getting ready to go to the Real Salt Lake game we heard a knock at the door. It sounded like a kid knock so I took my time getting there. I opened the door to find Rylie standing there covered in blood and standing in drips of blood all over the porch. She had been playing at the neighbor's house in their sandbox when one of the boys whacked her in the head with a shovel...OUCH! My first thought was..."lets go to the hospital" but on further inspection (and much debate) we decided that it isn't super deep. Deep enough to require a trip to the store for butterfly bandages but not enough for stitches. Rylie was a real trooper through the ordeal. The most she cried was when we said "butterfly bandage" because she didn't know what that was and it sounded scary.
BTW- Why don't they make "cute" butterfly bandages?
We were able to get her all bandaged up and comforted in time to go to the game. Thanks to Auntie Amy for babysitting and for Drew distracting Rylie from her wound.
P.S. School pictures are tomorrow...of course :).
