The Sequel

I'm so behind on blog posts, it's hard to know where to start to get caught up...

Here are some more photos of us and our extended family in London earlier in November (most of these were taken by Wes' brother and sister-in-law):

First Trim

I can't really call this Sophia's first haircut because so little hair fell to the floor that I couldn't even save a baby lock, as I'd been planning.  In fact, you couldn't see the little blond trimmings at all until they were all swept into the dustpan.  Still, Sophia's nearly 3.5, and I thought her ends might need a little attention.  A friend of a friend did the deed in our kitchen and said Sophia's hair is very healthy, so Daddy won't want any more trimming done any time soon!
AFTER: Grandma & Grandpa will be relieved that you can't tell much of a difference.  But there is a neater edge at the bottom, and we managed to preserve some of the baby curl at the ends, which are hard for me to let go!

Students

Here are photos of some of the students with whom we've recently had the privilege to spend time.
