Three Months Old and Goodbye Mullet

Mitchell is three months old today! Crazy how fast time goes by but I'll be honest...I'm so glad he's past the newborn stage. It was so much harder than I remember it being and not as much fun when you have other kids and you can't just sit and stare at them all day. I love this stage because he is smiling and starting to giggle. He loves watching his siblings play and is also getting on a better schedule...sleeping through the night! Yeah!
The hair..what to do with the hair?!?! It sticks straight up in the back...so awesome!
So...he's had a mullet from the day he was born. George, along with all the grandmas, persuaded me NOT to cut it. The mullet lasted about 12 weeks but I couldn't take it any longer. I pulled out the kids scissors and cut it (kids scissors aren't the best for cutting hair. Just FYI)...too short and not quite straight but sooooo much better :)
The damage.

The end result. Look at his chubby neck...something you couldn't see with the mullet. Why would we ever want to hide those rolls?

Cambrie's Halloween Party

Brie decided she wanted to have a Halloween party this year. We talked about it for weeks and I made sure she knew that SHE was in charge and needed to make all the plans. She wanted to hold it on Friday, the 30th and didn't decide to get the invites out until Thursday, the 29th. I really wanted to bag the whole thing but she was so excited...I didn't have the heart to tell her no. It's just a good thing 4th graders don't have any big plans because all three of them ended up coming and we had a great time.
Cambrie served dinner which consisted of "mummy dogs" and some vegetables...
Punch, and brownie coffins.
They played the classic doughnut game...why is this such a hit?
And they also had to find "eyeballs" in a huge bowl of spaghetti with bare feet. This ended up being a HUGE mess because you had to coat the spaghetti with oil so it wasn't sticky. My floor is STILL slippery...lesson learned! All in all it was a success and Cambrie was grinning ear to ear the whole time. She's a pro at throwing parties now :)
