Friday & Saturday

Aside from running a few different errands, we have mostly been having a relatively low-key past couple of days, and it has been really nice to just hang out and spend some time with the boys. On Friday we skipped our usual Panera breakfast since we're no longer attending gymnastics (did I mention that before? Sawyer is pretty much burnt out on gym right now.), and instead we had Hattie and Holly over to our house for a save-your-cash-and-make-your-own-muffins-and-iced-tea party. It was actually a really nice change not to have to rush out anywhere, and we enjoyed sitting around the yard and the house and letting the kids run wild.

This morning Mitch took Sawyer to get a haircut. We decided to keep it longer, but just to trim it and clean it up a bit. I was worried that Sawyer would come home with some wacky haircut, but Mitch did a good job of telling them how to cut it, and he didn't even go for the spikey option (which is adorable, but requires me to chase my child for a minimum of 10 exra minutes every morning with hair gel to get it looking like it's supposed to). They took a Jeep ride together, which is one of Sawyer's most favorite things to do, and went to the car wash, which he always begs to go to, but usually spends the first few minutes of it telling you how scary it is. He came home very proud of his new hair style, and I managed to capture a few cute pictures of it before he went outside to "go working with Daddy." I learned today that if you tell him to say "Wackadoodle" instead of "Cheese," he will start laughing his head off, and then you can actually get some natural looking smiles out of him for a change. Oh, but don't expect that he won't spend the next three hours yelling "WACKADOODLE!" to any and everyone in Walmart. Oops...ha ha!
