Art of Spiking

by ⋅ 1 Comment

Saturday, Eric took all the boys for haircuts – SHORT haircuts.  J2 had his normal crewcut…J1 & J3 had their normal haircuts.  But the haircutter must have told them about gel.  Now, every morning I have to use hair glue (that is how it’s labeled! LOL) to spike J3’s hair – J1 takes care of his own.

Today I worked a bit harder on it.  I was pleased with the effect…not only a spike, but the hair sort of wooshed to the side.  Sadly, it was declared too “normal” and nothing but “messy spikes” were going to be good enough!

One of these mornings I’ll be awake enough to get a picture of suitable “messy spikes”!

Video Frustration

I don’t have alot of time to devote to this – but I really want an answer.  I took a video with my digital camera but didn’t realize I had turned my camera thus changing the orientation.  Now I can’t figure out how to turn it – with a digital photo I just turn it with Gimp or some other photo software.  But it can’t handle the avi format of the video – so that’s not an option.

Anyone have any idea??

Sorry I’m quiet

She’s adorable.  She’s happy.  She’s meeting all sorts of new friends and family and loving it all!   Her brothers are loving her.  She has a tooth (or two?) peeking out and yesterday she sat up (unsupported) for a few seconds a couple of times.

But.

I’m soooo busy with a deadline at work that I can’t post the pictures and videos I’ve been taking.  So please be sure to come back … I’ll post them as soon as I can!
