Lovely hair cuts and Purple fish

As you can see by the picture at her Girl Scout ceremony Tuesday night, Macy's hair is getting looonngg. I have been after her to cut it, but to no avail. So Tuesday night, her friend Jessica (who has much longer hair than Macy) says she's getting her hair cut. Suddenly, Macy decides she wants hers cut too. (Nothing like a little peer pressure...)

Rather than risk her changing her mind, I quickly made an appointment tonight with my hairdresser. We've been talking about giving her hair to a charity that makes wigs for children with cancer, so Macy was excited about contributing. Here is Macy's hair in the ponytail before Staci cut it.

And here's Staci with the first cut:


The end result: over 9 inches cut off! She suddenly looks MUCH older. I love it, and more importantly, she loves it.







The back had to be shorter due to the ponytail, so it is stacked, and WAY cute.

She will be stylin' big time for her last day as a first-grader!







And on another exciting note, Kaylin has a new fish to replace Nemo, the four-year-old Betta fish who died last night. This one is Purplelicious, and is--you guessed it--purple. I want to break into Fergalicious every time she says the name. Hopefully Purplelicious can stay in our family a long time too.
