Scissor Using Hair Chopping Baby



Scissors are hand-operated shearing instruments. They consist of a pair of metal blades pivoted so that the sharpened edges slide against each other when the handles opposite to the pivot are closed. Scissors are used for cutting various thin materials, such as paper, cardboard, metal foil, thin plastic, cloth, rope, and wire. Scissors can also be used to cut HAIR and food.  

I as an adult know that scissors can be used to cut many things. I just can't figure out how a 4 yr old would know that she can use scissors to cut her hair? When I was a kid, I think I touched my first pair of scissors when I was like 5 or 6 and I sure enough did not know that I could my hair with it.

  Well I'd like to introduce to you, my 4 year old niece who has discovered her passion for cutting hair, her own hair that is.  

She chopped up all this hair a few days ago. 

My Mom found the evidence in the trash bin.
And of course when we asked her who cut her hair, she said she didn't do it. 

Here she is.
 I asked her if the kids at school made fun of her, she said no Auntie, the kids actually liked my hair. 

Now that I think of it, I believe my sister (her mom) cut her own hair when she was a kid. Like Mother/Like Daughter.


Have any of you Mommy's had your toddlers and not so toddlers become their very own barbers and/or hair stylists?
Or is my niece the only one who's chopped off their hair?

Hello..You Still There? Anyone? Yoohoo!

WARNING!!
This may be the longest post ever!
May cause boredom, yawning, and even make your forehead meet your keyboard.
 If you're still reading this after reading the warning label, I warned ya!  Just sayin'

When I said I was going to be MIA for a few days, I was refering to the week prior to the babyshower, and it turns out that I'm busier this week than I was the week before. How is that even possible?!

Let's see a quick recap on last week.

Ummm the famous Donkey Show I won tickets for that I was afraid of going to, yea turned out exactly as I imagined. It was a Disco type, Studio 54 meets Shakespeare kinda party/show. Ever read or see the play MidSummer Night's Dream? Picture that Disco style. All I can say is that it was somewhat INTERESTING. But not the exciting and fun interesting, more like the scary and creepy kind of interesting. Well that was my opinion, the crowd, my hunny, and my friend and her fiance who I dragged along with us, thought it was a cool show. I guess, if you're into that kind of stuff.
Some of the crowd dressed up in 70's gear, I wish I would've known, I would've loved to have dressed up too, ok maybe not. 

What's next? Oh yea, I don't know if I've ever mentioned in any of my previous posts, I don't recall how I came about it, but I've been to a few ok alot of movie pre-screenings since the beginning of the year. How it works? You get a pre-screening pass, you stand in line before the show as it's first come first serve basis, you get to watch an unreleased movie before everyone else, then you go tell your friends how awesome the movie was so they go watch it...the best part for YOU is that it's FREE!!! I'll tell you how to get those passes at the end of this paragraph.  Anywho, so Thursday night I went to watch "Total Recall" with my honey, sadly I never watched the first original version, but I must say this version ROCKED! I say you all save your pennies and go watch it!


To get free pre-screening passes, you can go to GofoboAdvanceScreenings , WildAboutMovies some of them on gofobo will require a rsvp code, your local newspapers, some radio stations, give out the rsvp codes and you can enter them there. Other movies may have open screenings and those are the ones you want. The ones you can print right away.  There you have it, a free date during the week compliments of me. :)

Then Friday, we went over my Besties to finalize all the shower favors and goodies. And then I decorated her belly with all the leftover stickers. Isn't her belly the cutest?!



Saturday, I spent the day with my honey, my nieces, and my Mom. We ran some errands, took the girls for pony rides, had lunch, grew some sponge animals, and even made some Art. (Stay tuned for the "ART" post.)






Sunday was the babyshower...Everything was so nicely set up and beautiful. Decor was beautiful, food was DELICIOUS, and Baby Ethan received everything and much more for his arrival. Now we're just counting down the days.  35 days to go! Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures since Auntie to Be, Amey and I were playing hostess. I only got this one picture. 
I promise once the photographer sends us the photos to share them with you.


And that folks, was my weekend. Now as for this week. I spent Sunday-Tuesday house/doggysitting. Wednesday the huns cooked some yummy pasta and then we went and hungout at Bayside Marketplace, where I got this ring and the cutest new Mickey phone case.


Isn't Mickey the cutest?

Now I have 2!  :)

Lastnight, we went to see Ruby Sparks (another pre-screening)  This is the movie where the guy is a writer and the girl he writes about comes to life..The movie was really cute!


This weekend, I have a date with my overdue cluttered room, drawers, and closet. Bleh!
It's time for some spring/summer and soon to be fall cleaning. How exciting, right?!...
I just want to cry! But it's gotta be done.


There you have it folks, my weekend, week recap and this weekend recap.
Hope yours is full of sunshine, margaritas, and fun!!!

"A Day Dedicated to Just ME"

Once upon a time...at approx 3pm weighing in at 5 lbs 8 oz and 16 inches long on this very day, July 2nd, 1980... 32 years ago, I was welcomed into this world.

Wasn't I tiny? I look dangly.

I remember when I was 10 I couldn't wait to turn 15
so I can wear heels and make up.
When I turned 15 I remember wanting to turn 18, and then 21.
I was terrified to turn 30...but survived!
Here I am at 32 and the years just keep coming by!!!


July 2nd
I am 32 years old.
I am 11,680 days old.
I am280,334 hours old.
I am 16,820,041 minutes old.
I am 1,009,202,494 seconds old.

Facts about my date of birth: 
There is 182 days until the end of the year.
I was born on a leap year.
The Ruby is the stone of the month

The water lily is the flower of the month


Population in 1980- 4,453,863,820
Population today- 6,991,800,919

They say you're only as old as you feel!
Overall, Turning 32 wasn't as bad as I expected, feels like 21.
Had an amazing day with the ones I love most!
Lunch, Dinner and a midnight Movie!

P.S. The Amazing SpiderMan was ahhhmaaazzzinnng! 

Definately a Must See!


Goodies from my HoneyBee
I think He Me! :)

It's A Boy!




Those who know me, know that I love babies. I have 4 little nieces, that I love more than my Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. (Bad comparison I know)


I was actually trying to keep tally -->  Baby Tally
  <-- on how many boys and girls my friends have had in the past months, but sort of lost track.

Anywho,  my bestfriend found out the sex of her baby, and she's having a BOY!
I'm sooo excited!
Finally some blues and greens in my life. :)

Babies, Babies, and MORE Babies...


Lately it seems as just about everyone I run into, or talk to either has just had a baby, about ready to pop, or just discovered they're pregnant! 

I don't have any babies of my own, but I do have 4 beautiful nieces!
Growing up I would always tell my siblings that when we married we should each have 4 children and on Friday's, I'd pick them all up to stay with me, and have all 12 babies wake my parents up on Sundays for Brunch. Unfortunately, things didn't turn out how I had planned, both my siblings stopped after baby number 2.
Let's see...7 of my friends just had babies... 5 healthy boys and 2 healthy girls...One of my cousin's is just about ready to POP! Another cousin is going to be a first time Daddy this year! And one of my bestfriends recently discovered she's pregnant!  How EXCITING!!!!


Seems like 2011 was the Baby-making year!
