Haircuts and Today’s Update

// 6.18.09 // Filed under: My Daughter, Parenting, Thriving

Yesterday was haircut day. My daughter got her first major haircut. Doesn’t she look so grown up?

My son got a haircut, too. But he was all like, “I’m just too old for this blogging about my hair thing, so leave me out of the photos.”

Cassie and I played a new game yesterday called “Kung Fu Bubbles.” According to my daughter, this is a game where “two girls, who are twins, fight bubbles with their army powers!” We blew bubbles and tried to pop them with our Kung Fu, wonder-twin, matching haircut awesomeness.

Update on the Life/Blog Happiness Project, days two and three: I didn’t run or Shred yesterday because I cleaned a good portion of my house and my pool. I also pulled our garbage can up our long, steep driveway which is really very similar to doing two to three sets of leg extensions and hamstring curls. I smiled a lot and I only yelled once because I still have not mastered how to hold my temper with a snotty tween who insists on picking on his younger sister for no reason at all. I did Shred this morning, but it doesn’t look like I’ll be able to get a run in for a few days because of this incessant rain we’ve endured for, oh, I don’t know, a month?

As for the Build a Better Blog Challenge, my task was to write a list post. So go check out my post on Five Kindergarten Math Resources. Today’s task is to promote that post, so how about a Stumble or a Tweet after you read it?
