Long or Short

My hair is in between stages right now, and I need to make a decision. Should I grow it out long again or cut it short? Right now it hits my shoulder and flips no matter what I do.

I grew my hair out while Lisa was serving a mission in the Philippines. When she came home, she cut almost 13 inches off. It was a little too long. Lisa happens to be living very close to me at the moment. So I thought I would take advantage of the last few weeks she'll be here and do something with my locks.

Resemblance

People always ask if Leah looks more like her mom or her dad. Honestly, I think she's a good mix. Anyone know much about genetics?

Me - 3 months


David - 5 months


Leah - 2 months and a few days


I think she has David's eye shape, my eye color, David's ears, my hair (although David has plenty of hair too...see next post), my nose, and my mouth. Throw a little bit of aunts, uncles, and grandparents in there and voila...you get a beautiful baby who looks completely unique.

Hair

...and lots of it.

Auntie Em

We were so excited to have Emily visit. Leah loved being held pretty much all day long, and I enjoyed being able to get out of the house to do a little shopping and watching Ellen with Em.

Blessing

We blessed Leah on February 1st so my parents could attend. David gave her a beautiful blessing. Grandpa Stathis, Grandpa Carrier, and Uncle Mike were all able to participate. After sacrament meeting, we rushed my parents to the airport so they wouldn't miss their flight. It was a little too close for my Mom, but everyone was glad they were able to be there.

Leah in the same blessing dress I wore as a baby. We were worried the dress wouldn't fit since my arms were so skinny. It ended up working out perfectly.
