"Anne Shirley, what on earth did you do to your hair?"


Well, I didn't dye their hair green or anything, but I did buzz it. It took months (or years in Hunter's case) of persuading from Kyle and others. I love my boys' hair and I didn't want to do it. They were getting kind of shaggy and it was haircut time, so I did it. I almost cried after seeing Hunter's completed, but it's growing on me now. Tanner's wasn't as shocking for me (probably because he has stick straight hair that's always sticking up everywhere anyway). Hunter is curly (wavy when it's short like we have it), so seeing him like that was a little more surprising. Anyway, I'll get used to it I'm sure and I must say it WAS easier to cut. And doesn't it make Hunter look way too old!?

P.S., I should probably explain why Tanner looks like he was in a bar fight. The bruises and cut on his left are from taking a dive off of cement stairs in Waitsburg on Sunday. Only cried for about 30 seconds too, my tough little guy. The cut under the right eye was Hunter induced. He hit him in the face with a book yesterday and luckily it hit right below the eye instead of in it. Should I be alarmed that Hunter asked ME if he should go to his time-out stool after hitting him? Um, yes, go to your stool.....and if you knew you'd end up there, why on earth did you hit your brother.....AGAIN? Yeah, I'd say we have a little situation here.

I like the new haircuts. Just like all of their uncles now. We've totally started a club!

Tanner is well on his way to getting someone to call CPS on you guys. "I swear, he did it himself!" "Yeah, right lady. Tell it to the cops." The fact that he's dirty all the time will just convince them that he's neglected. Keep up the good work!

Hunter asking if he's in trouble was way too funny. Unfortunately, this is a lot like his Uncle Matt. "I know this is probably a terrible idea, but, what the heck?" Not very good times.

Hunter totally looks older. He's so cute. Tanner's a little trooper :) One of these days he'll get Hunter back. At least Hunter knew that he was going to get in trouble. Which makes me wonder why he did it in the first place... kids :)
