last week's hair cuts ...

these aren't necessarily the best pics, but they're the ones I took when we got home from getting haircuts last friday! Liam's is pretty weird, it's supposed to be a "california cut" ... but either his hair doesn't work for that, or she did it too short, or something? Jericho's is great, not too short (he told me all the way there that he didn't want it to be too short because then it looks "weirn"). Annicka's is super cute, if you ask me ... if you ask her, she'll say it looks stupid! She really prefers long hair, but she (still) doesn't like to take care of long hair! So, it was a forced hair cut for "learning purposes" due to the lack of taking care of her hair and especially for a visual/reminder to try harder in school! Parent/teacher conferences were last week ... I was pretty shocked when the teacher's first words were: "so, Annicka (sigh) ... well, I don't know if you know this - but your daughter does NOT follow directions"! I've never been told this by anyone in authority over Annicka, she always gets super remarks from others ... but it wasn't behavior the teacher was speaking of, it was school work ... so we're really having to buckle down on her! Jericho got a good report ... not a "perfect" student, but like the teacher said "who is ... and that's boring anyway"! He follows directions for the most part and his behavior is good and he's enthusiastic about his work, but especially about art! Good job kids ... now if mommy could get her act together we'll all be doing great!
