Maggie Moe?

I guess every mom does it at least once. Then they learn that some things are best left to the professionals. I'm talking about cutting hair. Which I did, on Mags, last weekend. Now usually I am not a cheap person. Just ask my husband. But for whatever reason I thought it best that I cut our MagB some bangs instead of shelling out $20 at the kid's cut place. Poor, poor dear. All day Sunday I was having to pull out the scissors to try to "undo" what I had done. In the end, it's not so bad - perhaps a little Moe-ish (think Three Stooges) - but not too bad.

Pre-bangs trim:



And After:



See. Not too bad. But next time we're paying for the salon cut.

I finally got some of the pics we had taken a few weeks ago to post. Here are just a few.







Hope you all have a great weekend!

Picture Perfect

It's around 12:30 p.m. on Sunday, Maggie is napping, and we have about an hour before we need to leave for church so I thought I would take this time to update the blog. First off, I have to admit that this will be the first Sunday in about a month that we have made it to church. I am not proud of that fact. You see, our church is remodeling the sanctuary (or auditorium as we COCers like to call it) and while the renovation is taking place we are meeting for worship at another nearby church and church does not start until 2:15 p.m. While you might think that this would make getting up and going to church easier -what with getting to sleep late and all - that has just not been the case for us. We have awakened every Sunday for the past month with great intentions of going. I mean, we need to be in church. Maggie needs to be in church. And I recently had a dream that I am pretty sure was God telling me just that. I just feel different when I have not been. I don't like it. So with all that being said, we are going this Sunday - and every other Sunday we're in town. Inconvenient time or not!

I really don't have much to update you on. We did get some family pictures and pictures of Mags taken last weekend. I don't have any yet to post, but you can take a look for yourselves (at your leisure!) by going to http://www.aravaggio.com/. Just click on the client link and enter the password "maggie". There are a lot to go through and she got some great shots of our MagB. We're still trying to decide which ones to order but will decide soon so I can post some here!

Anyhoo, off to finish getting ready for church. Love to all and have a great week!
