Marching Right Along

 Kicking off the month of March, we'll start at Tate's pre-school:

Driller at work, part 1

Honing their skills, part 2

weekly helper with Shelley

The kids received some fun gifts from their grandparents:

We baked our tallest Dutch pancake to date:

See the steam rising out of it?

And experimented with both fun hair dos and expressive expressions:

Camp Mystic Lake: Crazy Hair Day

 This was a fun one.  Even MLM participated!

Where is Adam?  He decided that his hair wasn't feeling too crazy that morning.  He wore a baseball cap backwards.

Hairy Situation

One result of the pandemic? No haircuts for the kids (or me).  Adam's happy because he doesn't like them in general.  Tate is thrilled because he wants his hair to look either "like a colonist" or "like General George Washington's", depending on the day.

Here's an overview of the styles we've sported for the past few months:

During this particular haircut, Ashley and Tate served as the entertainment committee:

They distracted Adam enough for Daddy to complete his work successfully. Tate, however, didn't have a haircut for a few more weeks:

Stylish Gal

She's one stylish gal, willing to take chances with a new 'do.  In the first photo you can see just how much length she took off:

Chest Hair

This one is adorable.  Some kids want to grow up and be exactly like their parents.

Tate?  He wants Daddy's chest.  Chest hair.  Listen closely:

Van De Graaff Generator

Did you know that the Fisher Price bouncy house comes with a built-in Van De Graaff generator?  Check it out:

Haircut and Date

I promised Tate that if he got a haircut, he would get a lollipop and get to go on a date with Mommy.  He willingly obliged.  Here we are post-cut:

And here we are enjoying Chinese food for lunch.  The eggrolls were a hit!

Handsome Dudes

Here are two handsome dudes with fresh haircuts.  Mr T now knows that if he sits through a haircut, there might be a Dum Dum in it for him!

Thanks to Papa for introducing us to "his guys" in NY!  They did a wonderful job.

Mini Minnie

I call this photo Mini Minnie.

Wild Hair Guy

While we were playing around in the basement, I noticed just how wild Tate's hair is:

Garden Guy

When Tate saw me snipping the flowers, he wanted to hold one.  I showed his a fun, hands-free way to hold them:

Daddy the Barber

Daddy wears many hats around the house. Latest one?  Barber!

Family Haircut

What a site!  All three kids (and one Daddy) in the barber's seat at the same time:

I am beyond thrilled to report that only one child was crying, and that YouTube was not deployed during this visit.
