economic cuts

Yes indeed, it has happened. Yesterday evening, after Charli's bath, I cut off a bunch of her hair, and now she no longer has the tentacles she has been sporting on the back of her head for the last few months. I did it myself, because who wants to pay someone to cut off that small an amount of hair? Haircuts are expensive! And time consuming!

In addition, we are officially off formula, so that's another expense GONE. Charli had her last bottle of formula/milk mix 2 nights ago, and now it's 100% milk from now on - lots cheaper than formula! I guess now we can get her some Christmas presents. She doesn't seem to have suffered any ill effects so far...

p.s. There are a bunch of new Charli pics up on the website, and I should be posting pics from our Thanksgiving trip soon.

we have been enjoying reliving your visit so much--it was so much fun. The only problem is how much we miss everyone when you are gone. But as always, thanks tons and tons for all the news and keeping us up to date. As for St Louis, we are just trying to get thing ready for the next holiday. We are trying very hard to keep it sane and enjoyable though-not get caught up in the craziness. I have started decorating the house , but I don't think everthing will be brought out this year. Having a short Advent really does make difference. It has been COLD here, so there have been some great fires in the fireplace. Bye for now. Hugs for all-Mambaw
