Car Ride and Haircut

Lily got this Cinderella car for Christmas when she was 2 (right before she turned 3). Last summer she was just to little to handle it, but this year she is turning into a pro driver...well she can at least push the gas and turn the wheel. Avery decided to bale after just about a minute. It must have been pretty scary for him cause we all know how obcessed he is with "Cars". I am glad that Lily is enjoying this car now, cause it was a pretty expensive present from Santa. Actually my mom and dad got it for her, cause I refused to lay down that amount of money for something that I wasn't sure she would LOVE. Luckily, she does love it, just a year and half later.
We really wanted to spend the whole evening outside this evening...WAY TOO HOT!! Avery is usually walking around the house saying "outside, outside". Once we had been out for about an hour he was holding on to me whining and saying "inside, inside". So we got in the pool for all of about 2 minutes...it is just still to gross. We just can't seem to get it clean. I might have to have my dad come out and work on it. He is a pro at opening up the pool. We are going to be needing it SOON!!!
Lily had to pose with her car!!
Most of you probably remember a few months ago when I posted about Avery's fits when I take pictures of him (here). What a difference a few months makes. Now every time he sees the camera he say "cheese". It is so adorable, and makes for GREAT pics!! Love it!!
What a cutie pie!!!
I gave Avery his second ever haircut this evening. I've been threatening it for a while now. The problem is, he has the thinnest, finest, whitest hair ever. VERY VERY hard to cut. Last time I just buzzed it all off. But I wanted to leave a little of the length on the top. I ended up shaving his neck a little above his hairline. I just didn't want to cut it again for a while. I think it turned out okay, but it was not easy. I just hate, hate, HATE the idea of paying someone $15.00 to do something that I can do myself. I have always cut Adams hair and have given Lily all her haircuts except 1 (when she decided to chop it off herself...I had to have help straightening it up). If I knew someone that could cut my hair, I wouldn't go to the beauty shop either. Don't know anyone though.
