Why did this happen now?

"Do I look hansom daddy?" Jack asked Quinn today.
"Yeah sure buddy," Quinn replied distractedly from the computer.

Then he really looked at Jack, saw the baled patches on his head and turned in time to see Chase still in the act. Scissors to the scalp, just chopping happily away.
This pic was taken immediately after I informed them that their punishment was banishment from the scissors until I see fit to let them cut again. He was feeling pretty sad about it.

If this would have happen at any other time in the past year and a half I would have just laughed and shaved their heads...I mean, they're boys! Who cares if they have hair? But, we have family pictures scheduled in 2 weeks. These pics have been dominating my thoughts. Our first family pics with Tessa in them.

Oh well, at least we will always remember this humorous little incident, it will be immortalized in our family pictures.

P.s. Here is some Christmas cheer, enjoy!
Is anything more magical than watching someone experience a lit Christmas tree for the first time?
She was genuinely thrilled to be so close that she could touch it.
Fuzzy jammies, check.
I love the reflection of the lights in her eyes.
These pics make me want to curl up under the tree with a warm blanket, hot chocolate and some Christmas music. Cheers!

December

Are these the kinds of pics you take in December?







It was such a lovely day, high sixties and sunny. I took Tessa out to wait for Jack to come home from Kindergarten.



And then he came home, yeah!

But he doesn't like is picture being taken...
Lots of running jumps at the leaves

He took a turn behind the camera, not bad.

Then Chase took the camera...he always makes me laugh.
What a comedian.

It's been kind of hard to get into the christmas spirit, wonder why?
