De-Curled

One of our New Year’s resolutions was to do more individual date nights with each of the wee Kelleys.  I’m sad to say we have totally slacked on it.  We’ve done a few dates, but not as many as we had hoped to by now.  We’re making a conscience effort to pick them back up.  Last night I took Harper out for dinner.  She picked Wendys.

While eating I asked her lots of questions…like what’s your favorite book, TV show, store, game to play, etc.  She loved it.  My favorite question ended up being, “What’s your favorite flower?”  To which she responded with, “Lilly of the Valley.”  Wasn’t expecting that 🙂  She is totally her father’s child when it comes to the gardening and plant species factor.

The 20th always makes for a rough day…So hard to get myself out of bed.  Once I finally rolled out of bed today I noticed I was surrounded.  It made me smile.

You guys rocked the “Who is Captain America?”  Steve Rogers is now stuck in my brain, along with all the other alter egos.  Now who wants to tell me Human Torch’s alter ego name? 🙂

They found a busted egg in the yard this morning…Huddy ran as quickly as he could to get his new bird book.  They were serious investigators trying to get to the bottom of what kind of bird egg it was.  They are killing my heart.

We ate a fun lunch with Ashley at Chick-fil-A…I’m so glad we did.  Turns out Ashley is much faster ice cream cone eater than I am.  Some very good useless knowledge.

I discovered how Sol washes his hands.  I really like him…like a lot.

And I may have cried a little extra today because Huddy got de-curled.  When he was little, little we would buzz his hair or give him a mohawk.  My mom always asked us to “just let his hair grow” and then just like that…he has not had a haircut in well over a year.  His curls were amazing, but he recently got called a “her” while he was with Josh.  Tuns out Josh wasn’t too thrilled about that.  I could give him a really cute pony tail.

A plane flew over soccer practice yesterday advertising Super Cuts’ $6.99 haricuts.  This morning Josh took Huddy to cash in on the deal.  Oh my heart.  Josh said Huddy rocked…sat very still and just totally rocked.  Of course he did…I expect nothing less from this kid.

He looks a bit too big for me now, but oh so handsome.  I like his cute little duck tail in the back…I’m hoping we have a chance at a few curls coming back as that lengthens.  The hairdresser said he also has a double crown…some more good useless knowledge 🙂

And don’t forget our 17 Months Waiting Art Giveaway ends tonight.  CLICK HERE to enter.  I will post the winner tomorrow.

Have a great weekend & Happy Friday!

  1. Love Huddy’s haircut. My hubs thinks Gabe needs a hair cut… but I’m more of a once in a blue moon with his gorgeous locks!

    Have a great day, friend!

  2. Just tweeted t!

  3. I have two “double crowned” girls! 🙂 Apparently, according to my grandmother, it runs in our family. My son didn’t get it. Ha! I have a HEAD full of that useless information…..but it’s all mine! Love reading your posts.

  4. Add us to the double crown club. Both of my boys have double crowns, and they have their father to think. And, just like daddy, they have cow licks in the front. We’re really glad that they did not get my curl and wave on top of all that. :O)

    I absolutely LOVE the pic. of them looking for the bird egg TOO, TOO SWEET!!!

  6. Oh Huddy looks so cute, but it always makes me sad to “de-curl” my boys too. It usually happens when there’s a “she” reference around Daddy at our house too.

    Your memory will be thrilled to know that the Human Torch has FIVE names! LOL! Jonathan Lowell Spencer “Johnny” Storm 🙂

  1. […] We got a super awesome package yesterday from my friend Carol in Texas.  Carol is such a kind and encouraging soul.  My kids were beyond thrilled with all their goodies.  Carol hooked them up with all kinds of nature items so they can investigate any future bird eggs they find in our yard.
