haircuts

Kate and I got haircuts this weekend.
I let Kate choose the length; she went shorter than I expected.
We are both quite happy with our new styles.

Sad little Liz.  I'm still not sure how to tame her mane, though.  So no haircut for her.

self portrait

Kate took these self portraits all on her own.
After much frustration, she figured out that she could place the camera on the ottoman and she could just barely reach the shutter button.

I think she did a pretty good job!

my little collectors

On a night when Michael and the girls were out of the house, I took the opportunity to snoop in their rooms.  I specifically wanted to document what was happening on their night stands.
Kate's night stand has become almost like a museum collection.
She is very specific about the arrangement.
I have seen her fiddle with the placements.  Great thought, effort and energy goes into the display.
Every item was placed in a specific spot for a specific reason.


This is the drawer of the night stand.  Kate lined up the pencils all on her own.
Liz is not quite as organized and precise.  The items on her night stand are a bit more haphazard in their placements.
It looks as though items are tossed and wherever they land is fine.

I don't want to get too analytical, but I think the items on each girl's night stand and the placements say a lot about their personalities. I wonder what their rooms and night stands will look like in 15 years?
