Hair Ball Anyone?

Well CRW found out the draw back of being surrounded by to many females with long, thick hair. He has announced the girls need a hair cut and it needs to be above the shoulders! LuLu looked at her Dad and said "Yea, Right " This weekend we were bathing the girls and the drain was running slow so I asked CRW if he could get the drain cleaned out for me. The above picture is what came out of the drain. The scary thing is, this is the girls bathroom that they share. This is just the two of them and all their glorious hair. Pei Wei and I are in another drain.

On Saturday I go to a lift class at 8:30 a.m. at the gym, when I got back the kids had cleaned the house, sorted the laundry, and put the first load in the washer. CRW had them vacuum the whole house, the girls were disgusted with the amount of hair they picked up with the vacuum. LuLu was extremely upset that the amount of hair and dust had plugged the vacuum and CRW had to take it apart and clean the filters. Maybe the girls and I have to much hair. We could use all that hair on the floor and transplant it to Pei Wei she is lacking in hair as she approaches her 2nd Birthday.

All in all it was a great weekend sunny, warm, blue skies, and we spent the weekend taking walks and at the park. Spring is here two weeks early everything is in bloom. That means I am breaking out the Claritin. LuLu is getting ready for her dance recital in June and Red will have a piano recital in June also.

I must need more sleep?

I think I have hit an all time low! When I was growing up I would say the wrong word in place of another word thinking I had used it correctly. For example instead of saying that guy has cool cuff links I would say handcuffs. Get the idea? Well my family and friends growing up always got a good laugh out of my slips. Often the words come out wrong but in my head they were right so I was not sure of what came out of my mouth. Well this happened the other night.

Red is practicing the piano and she is taking forever and not staying on task. In my frustration I blurt out " Could you just get pregnant!" My eight year old daughter looks up in horror at me and has the most confused look on her face. CRW yells "What did you just say?" must have been a rhetorical question because as soon as I answered: "Could you just practice" he says "NO you didn't". When I realize what I have said I start to back pedal, Fast. Let's just say it was a very embarrassing, awkward moment. I guess I will not get Mother of the year award.
