Frugal Fun With Barber Tools

We had a great time on Sunday. I laughed until I cried.

My very wonderful husband decided it was time to rid himself of winter....

(Thank goodness!)


He grew a beard to help shield his face against the harsh winter wind when he runs 18-20 miles on Sundays.


(I really don't blame him, but I still wouldn't grow one...even if I could.)


So we decided to have some fun with the clippers.


I guess you could add it to the list of my many jobs as a mom and wife. I am a barbress.

(If that is a word. If not I am making it up and calling myself one)


I only do boys' hair.... If I did girls and boys I would be a stylist. I guess....


So check out the handy work, we came up with names for all the pictures... which one do you like best? What would you call it?
I like 20 best...

Carly at "Tunbatots" AKA Tumbletots

Carly's favorite day of the week is Wednesday.
She knows when it is, she wakes up and says
"I go kick. I go jump, jump. I go tunbatots."

Waiting in line to jump on the trampoline.
Hanging like a "montee" (monkey)


Ahh! So fun, the pit!

Could this smile seriously be any bigger?
I am going to be sad when it's no longer mommy and me classes. It is so fun to watch her grow!
I look at these pictures and can't believe that it's the same little baby who was born with Erb's Palsy. We were told she wouldn't have full use of her arms.... Way to prove them wrong Carly!
