Johnny Jump Up

We tried the Johnny jump up with Stu while we were scrapbooking and he loved it and is VERY good at it!!

Worst hair cut EVER!!!

Let me just get on my haircutting soap-box for a minute... WHY CAN'T ANYONE BLEND HAIRCUTS!!!! I mean seriously we all went to beauty school! We all studied from the same book! Why does it seem like I was the only one listening on blending day! To have good blended layers you MUST point cut, you can have the straightest most perfect lines in your haircut and it will look horrible, as much as you straighten it it will never look good. The point isn't straight lines, only the few high-school girls looking for "choppy" layers want to be able to see each layer, other than them you blend away, I mean BLEND away!!
hhuuuuu.... Well as you may have guessed I got my hair cut, and to my discovery; unless I decide to be that super annoying girl that tells the stylist every cut and move to make I am going to have to come home and fix every hair cut for the rest of my life. I don't know I guess Im just picky and like to get what I want on my head and have it blended!! Aparrently that is too much to ask for!! I wish I had Elastigirl arms so I could cut my own hair. Lately I have been missing my long hair but thought I would get my hair trimmed one more time and have it cute short before I start to grow it out. Saturday I went to a girl that I worked with, who I referred all of my clients to, to get my hair trimmed. Well now that growing out process is going to take a lot longer. My hair was a long a-line and is now a very choppy, very short stacked a-line! I got home with my hair wet thinking, "I hope this is cute!" and dried it....it was horrible! Even Mike could tell, his words, "From the side there is a chunk and then a chunk and the back has a huge shelf"! Mike is even getting the words down!! Well I went back to have her blend it better and she tried. I ended up coming home and blending it myself, which was a good thing to discover that with three mirrors and a lot of time I can kind of do it myself. Now I have a lot less hair than I wish I had...Good thing it grows!

Amazing Internet!

The other day I wanted to make some Oatmeal cookies that sounded really yummy off of the food channel. Well off course I had all but ONE ingredient! It was buttermilk, I don't think I have ever purchased buttermilk. And, since I probably wouldn't have a use for it after these cookies I tried googleing Buttermilk substitutions. and, IT WORKED!! There is a buttermilk sub. and it really works! All you do is add a tablespoon of lemon juice or white vinegar to a cup of milk and let it stand for 5 to 10 minutes. It really turned thick like buttermilk, I felt like I had just successfully done a cool science experiment! How cool is the internet? We can ask all kinds of weird things and most of the time get an answer! So for all of you like me who don't have a use for buttermilk very often, try this! (It is also a lot healthier for you!)

Yummy cereal

Yesterday Stu turned 4 months old! I can't believe it! He is so much fun, time has gone by so fast already. Today he ate Big boy rice cereal for the first time! I think he liked it. He just hasn't figured out his tongue yet so it isn't as fast as he would like. We are having so much fun with our little guinea pig! Poor guy is getting all of our ideas good and bad! We Love you Stu!!
