snip, snip

jayne's hair has been a little out of control for a couple of weeks now, and lucy's hair was getting too long. i don't mind it if she lets me braid it or do something cute to it, but she just wants to let it hang in her face, so i let her choose if she wants to cut it, or let me style it. tonight, she decided she wanted me to cut it. jayne's needed a trim, too, so i brought out the scissors. this was actually jayne's first hair cut, and she's 2 1/2! i wonder if i should have kept the hairs i cut and put them in her baby book. too late now, they're mingling among lucy's hairs now in the trash can.

so, anyway, here are a couple of before pics (really just pictures taken a few days "before" i cut their hair). notice how lucy is showing some leg. silly girl...

here they are being cute before preschool last week.

and here they are after. you can't tell i cut jayne's really, because i didn't trim that much off (and i also didn't realize that i missed that section to the left until after i took this picture), but look at that face!

there's the short side of jayne's hair, and here's a good view to lucy's new do. doesn't she look super excited?!and here it is again. it turned out so cute, and i'm excited because now her hair won't be as tangled up because she won't let me do anything with it. yay!

Very cute! Don't be deceived, that short hair can still get tangled. Maggie's still looks crazy most days. I think you have to go pixie short to get the no maintenance bonus.

The girls are growing up SO much. I can't believe it's already been a year since we moved. How's pregnancy treating you these days? Are you up for #3?

Good job on the haircuts Ashleigh! Chris does the haircutting around here--I don't dare take scissors to my kids' heads. And Annie has never had her hair cut before, so that will be a big day when that happens!

The pics don't do justice. They look adorable in real life. I love Jaynes. I've seen Lucy's hair short before and it's always cute. :) I wish I could just wake up and have my hair look like that.
