Ava's first haircut...(NOT by choice)

We went to Ava's friend, (not anymore...j/k) Krysta's birthday party. They had a tent set up, and the girls were playing inside. Ava came out and said, "Mommy, Krysta cut my hair." I replied, "Oh, how f..u....n?" and then I saw all the locks of ringlets on the ground. I think I went into shock after that. Too stunned to be mad. Too stunned to be sad. (Although I did ball my eyes out later) I had to keep reminding myself, it could have been worse. She could be bald. She could have had her eyes gouged out...yaddy yaddy yadda. So, here' some before and after shots. Ava was so good getting her her cut, she got her nails done, too.

We also went and saw Grandma Smith at the rehibilitation hospital, so she could meet Abby Rose. She always recognizes me when I see her! She's learning how to use a walker, and still seemed on top of things. Although, she did ask me if my husband still worked for the airlines. (Pretty close, Grandma!) She seems so lonely, though....

Lovely different lengths.

Beautiful pink nails.



Are the ringlets gone forever? *heavy sigh..we had a good run*



Somebody wipe the glow off my forehead, please. Grandma LOVED seeing the girls.

There is no way those ringlets are going anywhere. They will grow back and be as beautifl as ever. The hair cut looks cute, anyway.

I love her haircut!! I remember Jake cutting Ellie's hair when I was out of town for not even 24 hours. Rob thought it was not noticeable, it was the first thing I notice! You never forget those days!
