Apparently, my husband's time did not start counting down until he got in country, so I lost three whole days off of my count. BOOO!!!
Today was pure awesomeness. My poor little mushroom-haired kiddo HAD to have a haircut and he was nooooooot happy about it. I bribed him with going to the park and I took a tiny unscheduled stop at the BX. When we pulled in the parking lot, he looked straight up into my eyes and said, "Ohhhhh no, you are not going to snap Jacky's hair!" LOL!! He is way too funny. He dragged butt the whole way into the Barber Shop and there were about 6 or 7 guys in there and they all just grinned as Jack tried to slink out of the shop again and again and kept telling me "I not gonna get a haircut, Mommy." Finally, it was our turn and I expected a massive tantrum. Instead, I got a grown-up little boy! He climbed into that chair and let her drape him (as long as he could see his shoes) and he sat there like a champ the whole time! I was SO proud of him!
After that, we went in the uniform supply store at the BX to look for a tiny ABU uniform for Jack. I was going to buy him the Buzz Lightyear costume from the Disney Store but 2 things stopped me:
1. It was like $90.00, including shipping. HELLO! Craziness!
2. Jack HATES costumes! He doesn't like hats, he doesn't like capes. I mean, look at my pictures. He doesn't even like wearing shirts and shorts!
So, we got in there and tried on the CUTEST little uniform ever! He loved looking "like Daddy" and he even wore the cap for a long time. And it was only $28.00. Woo!
We went to the promised park on base and played and threw rocks in the lake and just had a good time and then we got Jack some Popeyes "mashapotatoes with no graby" and came home. Apparently, he heard me telling Miss Junebug to shut up because he got mad at me for something and ran up behind me and yelled, "SHUT UP, MOMMY!" That didn't go over well, haha. He ended up going to bed at around 5:30pm and slept until 4:00am!
Oh! And a funny thing -- I have done photos for the lady who cut his hair! I didn't notice until she said something, lol
Absolutely LOVE the photos - I can't believe how fast he's growing up!!!
