NIGHTMARE!!!!

So this morning I am on my computer in my loft which is just down the hall from the girls bedrooms. They asked if they could set up a "tea party" in the hallway so ofcourse I said yes. 20 minutes later and ALL the stuffed animals in the house, the party looked like it was ready to go. Then they asked if they could "dress up" for their party. Again I said yes. So 10 mintues later the heels and pricess gowns were put on and they were welcoming their guests. Then I dont hear anything. (For those of you that don't know my two girls that NEVER happens) They are usually arguing saying"my turn to talk".

So I give a shout and ask them what they are doing and Isabela says "just getting pretty in the bathroom". I dont hear the water running so I finish up on the computer. 2 mintues later I ask again what they are doing then Isabela replies the phrase I think I will have nightmares about for years to come.........

"I am just cutting my hair to look like YOU". I RAN (FYI 8months pregnant) into the bathroom and there she was with preschool scissors cutting off her beautiful blonde curly hair. I have to tell you I have NEVER been good at handling stressful situtaions thats why Johnny and I work well together. He doesnt freak out and it takes a lot for him to react to something. I immediately starting freaking out and losing my cool. I wasnt yelling at her but I couldnt grasp that this was actually happening.

As I could see a pile of her hair in the corner of my eyes I am asking her why she did that and she replied "I wanted to look like you and I wanted to cut my hair like YAYA cuts Daddys hair". (YAYA aka Pilar cuts Johnnys hair at our house) Dont they say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...Yeah it didn't feel like it.

Thankfully I got to her before it got too bad. Since they were kids scissors and not sharp she couldnt do too much damage. She basically cut herself some bangs about 1/4 inch from her head and a little on the sides. If she wears it down it is horrible but if its up or in picktails you would just think she has really jacked up bangs. She left a lot of it long and since she has really curly hair the short parts curl and wave into the longer parts but I tell you what I was very close to going into labor when I saw that pile of hair.

She is such a sweetheart too. Afterwards she said mommy I am still VERY pretty. I told her it didnt matter what she wore of if she even had any hair that she was one of the most beautiful girls in the world.

I know I will get comments on posting a picture but too bad you guys will get one as soon as I GET OVER IT!!!

Tagged!!!

Thanks to Tara here are 6 facts or habits about me.....

1) I am extremly messy, not DIRTY just messy. Car, house purse. You name it. I have gotten better since having kids but there is A LOT of room for improvement.

2) I can't stay mad. It's impossible. I have tried many times even said I am REALLY going to stay upset this time and sure enough 2 minutes later forgotten. I can't do it and believe me when I say I have tried and that it is a FLAW.

3) I hate the word controlling so I would prefer "scheduled" with my kids. I might be messy but I am VERY organized with time. Its all about the schedule. I will and have gone nuts if they get thrown off their schedule. I am working through my issues...At least I think so.

4) I love food. If I had to pick between a $200 meal at my favorite restaurant and a $200 gift card to my favorite store....Food wins. Everytime Hands down....

5) I dont like to be scared. Rollercoasters, haunted houses, movies etc. If it will even remotely be frightening..... I'm OUT!! I am a big baby.

6) I grew up in Canada until I was 13. Every once in a while the Canadian accent will slip through and unfortunately for me Johnny ALWAYS catches it.

I Tag Nicole, Amber, Megan and ANN.
