Whale of a Tale

So Buster is our science boy and wants to know everything he can about his topic of interest to the point that it is all he thinks about. Lately Buster has been into Dinosaurs and Sperm Whales. The other night the kids were playing and in effort to make everyone happy they were playing a fairy game however the buster was the roach fairy (as in cockroaches)the roach fairy shoots cockroaches at bad guys. He quickly grew tired of the roach fairy and decided he was a Sperm Whale fairy, the only problem is that he loves nicknames and shortening names so he became the Sperm fairy. The sperm fairies defense was to shoot little sperm whales but when you shorten it, you just end up shooting sperm.


Fast forward to today, Swifty got home early so he took the boys and they walked to pick KB up from school, the whole time Buster is telling swifty (yelling it loudly so he is heard) about sperms and how a baby sperm is bigger than our van, and a grown-up sperm is as big as a school bus. Oh this boy is FUNNY!

Hair

March, yes it is now January well it was December when this all happened. Anyway, March was the last time I got my haircut! Needless to say my hair was long, unhealthy, and yucky. So one fun family filled Saturday I was trimming KB's hair and Swifty was buzzing the boys hair I got a wild hair to do the same. Because we have a newborn in the house I don't have time for the haircuts I can afford and I wont spend the money on the haircuts I have time for, so I did what any desperate lady would and remembered a friend telling me she put her hair in a ponytail and chopped, this girls hair was cute. So I put my hair in a ponytail and was shocked that it was more like sawing with scissors and realized I was not able to do this on my own so I enlisted HELP, my sweet husband had NO idea what he was getting into, or maybe he did either way he took over sawing and chopped many many many inches off my gross shag. We took the hair out of the ponytail and dun DA dah DA dun it was HORRIBLE!!!!!! I can not express how awful my hair looked, so Swifty plopped down on the bed with his phone and began to study how to cut hair on youtube. after watching a few videos (with me in the background saying can we fix it lets just start fixing this, no lets not cut anymore I will just wear a ponytail for a long time) he stood up grabbed the scissors and told me to hold still. After a long time of standing and a few finishing touches we came up with this. . . . . .

Three

Hieselt turned 3! Can you believe it, I can't why oh why do they grow soooooooooooo fast? Two days after Christmas Our sweet guy turned 3. We started the celebrations off with Zoolights, we have no pictures because I did not want to risk my camera getting rained on. Hiesie is at that age where you don't nap but if you get in the car after 4 p.m and it is dark you fall asleep, so he slept through the first bit of his festivities. The next morning we began his day with a little Dinosaur Train, opening of presents, once those two important acts occurred he could think about breakfast. Swifty had the day off so we played all day, had Chicken for dinner, a dinosaur cake with HUGE candles in them I could not find our birthday candles so we put 3 huge Candles in his cake.
