How Dare You?!

She wasn't appreciative of Emma's and my idea of not picking her up.

She already thinks that she runs the place.

The Happiest Haircut EVER!

We took Elsa to get a haircut last night.

Here she is with her savvy new do:

Since she is a big girl now, after talking to the hair stylist about what to do with Elsa's hair, I left for a few minutes to cruise the mall.

When I got back, Elsa was VERY excited to show me something. Look down at her feet in the picture above. See the spot? That is her hair.

The stylist (our good friend Theresa, from Trade Secret Salon) told me that they had not moved it at all. They had swept the rest of the hair away, but this part was siting on the floor exactly as it fell when she cut it from Elsa's pretty little head.

Here is a close up:
And here is a closer up:
Our stylist is good. REAL GOOD!

My Child Cannot Even Crawl Yet, But...

There is no obstacle big enough...No coffee table wide enough...
No bars high enough...

To keep her away from something she really wants.That's my girl!

Halloween Recap

Ryan and Elsa started Halloween a little early and when to see Odyssey Dance Company perform its annual Thriller concert. Zombies tried to get them.
Scary zombies.
They survived.
Halloween morning, we got pretty and headed to Delta. This is Addy, ready to depart.
On the way we saw some sheep; I guess sheep need exercise because these ranchers were out walking their sheep.
All of their sheep.
A lot of sheep.
Despite the sheep, we did make it to Delta in time for the pumpkin carving contest.

Elsa and I entered jointly. I had her check out our competition before we got crackin'.

After the carving, the children were fed
And then dressed in their finest Halloween garb.

Grrrrrrrrrrr!
She is being covered in the group shot. Here is the top half of Miss T.
And Oakley...or Captain Red Head.
This is Jenna, the only adult with the gumption to dress up. Notice the Robisons like to sport long red hair on Halloween. (You know what I mean Ry?)
Harley. You would think with a name like that, she would be something a little tougher and scarier than a flower! Well, maybe next year.
Hawley the cow girl.
Adele the bug.
Elsa the grumpy fairy princess.

The tall one smiled because I threatened to take her candy. The little ones smiled because I threatened to take their picture.
She was unamused by the trunker-treating, but Adele found her fairy princess sister fascinating.


I didn't even place in the pumpkin carving...

Look at the competition though. (I voted for the top 4 of these, and gave serious thought to stealing the fifth)
