It started with Dropping Zoe off at a birthday party. Now I had been up all night because the baby was SCREAMING. So, that meant I had 2 hours to party with my 3 while Zoe partied with her bestie, Sierra.
First we went to the pet store. ok, does anyone really want to buy a Fancy pet rat? Is there really such a thing? We also saw kittens that all the girls picked out their fave and gave me grief why boots wasn't going to get a new friend. and then Ada named all the animals in the store, assuming that I would buy her one. My favorite line from the pet store: I see 2 hamsters. That one's name is chedderton ... and I shall name that one Jim.
next was wonderworks.... wow , that's a store not meant for the faint of heart. My fave there: instead of a boucy ball, they had a giant blow up dog that you sat on, holding his ears and bounce.
Finally time for lunch. McCalisters... mmmmm. I used my B1G1 coupon... and we ate "teddy bears in a pool" (teddy grahams in apple sauce).
Sound boring? Well, after we picked up Zoe, it was time to go to the cosmetology school to get the girls hair cut.
We met some friends and her 3 girls , kinda to buffer the amount of time it would take.
So, in like a half an hour, all 6 girls had gotten their hair cut and my friend was getting hers cut. She said, "go ahead and get your hair cut and I'll hold nyla if you need".
2 1/2 hours later.... my hair was done getting cut. I got the sweet girl who neglected to tell me she was DEATHLY afraid of cutting my hair. She WOULD NOT take a cut without her teacher there (who had other girls to round on, so you can tell how long it took).
She of course picked the cut she'd always wanted to try, but didn't even know how to do it.
Highlights (no pun intended): "Have you ever considered letting me color your hair" ... not today
(for the 10th time) :" I dont know what my guide is. I think Ill just cut here."
"Her hair is just so curly, I can't see anything. Should I just cut it off?"
"it's just so thick, can you do it"
Teacher: "the kids are getting restless. time to hurry up"
student: "stop putting pressure on me. I'm trying. Here you take the scissors. wait, they're stuck on my fingers"
After it was all over, nyla had fallen asleep under the cape, the girls are running like CRAZY people, and getting all their nails done, I am happy to say that my hair isnt all bad. and I dind't pay much"
And then just to ice the cake, Johnny decided to take the girls to chuck e. cheese and we hit the jackpot... twice.
And that's my typical day... picks to follow
