New Bling for Friday the 13th

Kinley has been asking to get her ears pierced for a hot minute now. I have been hesitant for several reasons, but mostly because I'm just not ready for all the big girl things! I have been trying to put it off for as long as I could, but she finally put her little foot down today and convinced me that she was ready. And I'm glad that we didn't rush it before. Since we did talk about it for so long, she knew exactly what to expect, was SO excited and was confident with her decision. I had done my research prior and knew that we wanted to go to a tattoo parlor with a Professional Body Piercer. We went to Platinum Ink in Austin and I was a little nervous about how she would react to being inside a legit tattoo parlor, but she was completely cool! Her Piercer was great and made her feel comfortable. She was so brave and you can see in the pictures and video just how proud she is! We love her new bling!

Brooklyn's First Haircut

My baby got her first haircut today from Belle Vita Salon. Just the tiniest trim because that's all that I can handle on her beautiful platinum blonde hair. And that tiny trim still makes her look older. :-/
















Not sure that I pull off my new color as well as B.

Happy Easter

We spent Easter weekend at Poppa and Peggy's house this year. They are putting in a pond at their farm and we got to go check it out after the recent rains. Pretty neat!! Travis even braved getting in to see how deep it was. :-/ We had some fun just hanging out there for a while... riding the Power Wheels and flying kites. The weather was beautiful! We spent the evening dyeing eggs and catching up until the early morning hour. This was the first time we've hunted for eggs at their house and the kids loved it! Their backyard is waaaaay better than ours! Ha! And between the Easter bunny and Poppa and Peggy, the kids loaded up on goodies!
