My sister-in-law, Sarah, dyed my hair last week. I decided that I was sick of being a redhead and it was time for a change, so we went brown. I love it, although I think it still needs to grow on some people! Ryan actually liked it, too, which I was a little nervous about. The best part is that she dyed my eyebrows to match, and I feel like a totally different person with eyebrows. I've never been able to see them before. It's such a new experience!!
On the 29th, my sisters and I had a girl's night. We went to see Bride Wars, which I think is hilarious, by the way. That was my second time seeing it and I laughed even harder the second time. But I brought my camera so we could document the good times! I asked the guy at the candy counter at the theatre to take this. They were all embarrassed. I don't know why.
We also had Daphne, Sarah and Andy's daughter, at our house for 5 days. I was a little stressed about having her with all the homework I'm doing all the time, but it actually worked out really well. She entertained Bella while I sat at the computer and got all my stuff done. This is her dancing. She wants you to take pictures of her dancing, and most of them just come out blurry because she's moving so much. But we had a really fun time with her. Bella did pretty good with sharing her toys, but she wasn't happy about sharing her mommy! Every time I did anything with Daphne, she would come worm her way in. Oh well. One day she'll be forced to share, and life will never be the same again! But the experience taught me one thing. I am sending my children away when it's time to be potty trained, and they cannot come back until they are tall enough to get on and off the toilet in a non-disgusting manner and reach the sink to wash their hands!! I don't do well with potty training children. I think that in the next year or so I will be learning a lot of patience and have to put aside some of my cleanliness issues!!
Well, life is still busy. Ryan continues to plug away at school. He says this semester is going a little better than last, but he's still gone a lot. The only thing getting us through this is knowing that the end is so close, we can taste it!! We're thrilled that he's graduating into an economic recession with millions of layoffs and unemployment at new highs. Hopefully he'll be able to find something!! Life may not be changing as much as I thought it would be! But we're healthy and happy. Just have to throw in a picture of Bella because that's why I blog... to show off my adorable kid!! This is Bella's impression of The 'Hoff.
