(James after the traumatizing at-home haircut)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The big story of this week for us was Daniel giving James a haircut. After watching a few youtube tutorials his barber confidence was soaring and he grabbed the clippers and scissors and decided to do it while James was still sitting in his high chair after lunch. James has had one haircut at Snip-its, a salon that specializes in young children. At Snip-its he sat quietly watching Baby Shark on an ipad while his stylist cut his hair. At Daniel\u2019s Barber Shoppe<\/em> on the other hand, he screamed and pleaded for it to stop from the first snip. It was pretty bad. James was crying and shouting, \u201cAll Done?!\u201d while Daniel tried to quickly finish. For the rest of the day Daniel followed him around with scissors and would snip one piece at a time to try to even it out. The end result was\u2026adequate (Daniel’s word for it :).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take a look at the expert work above his ear<\/em>. (Oh and PS: I went in to make sure he could breathe with Teddy Bear so close to his face)<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And now…a few things I’ve loved lately: <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Last week we watched a fantastic movie: Brittany Runs a Marathon<\/a><\/strong>. It\u2019s about an overweight woman in her late 20s trying to get her life together by training to run a marathon. It’s funny, relatable, and true\u2014AND it showcases a wonderful lead performance from Jillian Bell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daniel and I do an at-home date night two or three times a week and lately those dates have included some intense Mario Party<\/strong><\/a> playing on Nintendo Switch. It’s basically a board game combined with little mini video game contests. I haven\u2019t played video games in years but it hasn\u2019t been hard to pick up and we’re having so much fun with it (and doing a fair amount of competitive trash talking). So if you have a Switch and are looking for activities, I really recommend it. I\u2019m sure it would be great for older kids, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most experts are now recommending that people cover their faces when going out in public. Here is an article that shows you how to make a cloth mask out of some household items<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve been doing some baking with your extra time at home and find yourself running out of common ingredients, this is a guide that shows you what to substitute<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re looking for a good Instagram follow, @thedivadish<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>posts a ton of funny memes in her stories on Wednesdays which I have been loving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
