Teathing is an Art Form (not to mention hard work)

James recently cut his third tooth. He has worked long and hard on this one and I am sure its mate is soon to follow. One of his favorite snacks are Biter Biscuits, it used to take him a good part of the day to gnaw one down to a nubbin but now he make pretty short work of it. While apparently they are tasty little treats they are by no means tidy.

Mmmm, Mmm, Good.
Can I have more, Momma?
But, why not?

The Woes of Dyeing

I have been dyeing hair for many years, mine, and everybody else's for that matter. Most of the time it turns out splendidly, but I do have an occasional mishap from time to time. Fortunately the catastrophes have been limited to myself. I have had pink highlights about three times, blue gray hair once and today old, straw yellow. Through the years I have learned many things and I like to think that I have improved, but one thing that I had not encountered before was post pregnancy hair. I set out to dye my hair blonde and add platinum highlights and ended up with old straw. I for the first time in my life went in and got it fixed. I just can't stand that yellow orange color. Nothing spells white trash to me faster. The nice lady said it was not nearly as bad as I thought and actually just ended up foiling in some platinum. She also explained that the reason my color had not turned out as expected was because my hair was so healthy from the pregnancy that it just didn't lift like I was used to before. Anyway...all this to ask...Do you have any hair color gone wrong stories? Do share.

Naptime

Ever since James' colic was resolved he is a big fan of the nap. When I go check on him I never know what I am going to find. It keeps getting more interesting. He's getting into toddlers stage and wants to be in everything. Its A Lot of fun.
