I just noticed that Lex is exactly 2 1/2
today. Happy half birthday Lex! Too bad he’s already asleep so
we can’t celebrate. Oh well.

One of the similar videos that comes up on
YouTube is called “Jayson wins the baby crawling
contest” It’s hysterical. Check it
out.

We went outside for a bit today because it
was a beautiful day. I got bored pretty quickly though because
Lex decided that he could play with the trucks, and the car,
and the slide, and just about everything else, but all I could
do was stand by the car and hold Eve. Hmm… “Eve gets nothing.
Mommy does nothing. Just hold Eve.” Like I said, boring! I got
some nice pictures at least.

Then we made chocolate chip peanut
butter cup cookies. I have been on such a baking spree lately
that I’m going to be 300lbs before year end if I’m not careful.
Most of these cookies are going to work with Alan in the
morning :) Lex had the job of unwrapping all of the peanut
butter cups. Notice what a nice job he did of lining them up in
the bowl :) He loves to help bake and I’m alway happy when I
find something he can do that is truly helpful.

Well, technically it’s hair yesterday, gone
today. We went down to the Johnson’s for dinner and Eve and I
slipped out to do a little shopping at Old Navy (thanks
Joyce!). Unfortunately I didn’t find anything I really wanted,
and the check-out line was ridiculous anyway, so I got a
haircut instead. The salon people (and by “salon” I mean, of
course, Super Cuts) were hesitant to let Eve sit on my lap, but
they gave in when I said it was her on my lap or no haircut for
me. The lady said, “she might get some hair on her…” and I
said “she could use some hair anyway.” Eve was a perfect angel,
of course, and chewed on my hoodie string while intently
watching the stylist. At the end all of the stylists there were
commenting on how sweet and quiet she was :) Here are two
pictures for you all. The first one shows the haircut well and
the second one is just a cute picture. Enjoy!
