The Red Couch Photo Revisited
The original red couch post to this blog was made on April 9,2008. It is amazing how our little ones have transformed into very active toddlers in such a short time.
Gung Hay Fat Choy.. Happy New Year

Hair Cuts For Chinese New Year
<
January 26,2009 is Chinese New Year. It is customary to buy new clothes for the children of the house and get their hair cut to start the year fresh and new.
I took Abbey and Cari for a much needed hair cut in honor of this tradition. They also got their nails done. Cari loved getting her nails painted while chewing on a princess phone making calls to Daddy. However, she would only let the the girl paint one hand. I thought it was pretty funny, but the girl painting nails didn't get it. Abbey got her hair put in an up-do with glittery spray. By the time we got to the car she was not liking her fancy hair. "MY HEAD HURTS!!!" were her exact words. Within 10 minutes of arriving home every last bobby pin was out. As for Cari, her "mom haircut" is becoming less noticable, but the back still has a ways to go. As for little Ellie goes, she still doesn't have enough hair to cut. Maybe next year.

Play Date
Abbey had a play day at her friend L's house today. They had Hanna Montana Mac and Cheese, and did all things girly. Dressing up in Princess costumes, playing with beads, and giving each other pedicures were just a few areas they covered in an hour and a half. Even Cari got in on some of the action.
