I love your hair!

YAY for you! Congrats on the new job :)

Your hair looks great, sexy mama!

I am dying from Zoe's picture again. I can't help but go look at that hair! They look good, I won't call you, so don't worry about ignoring my call on caller ID. :)

2009-08-23T15:58:59.480-06:00

I love the hair! Short hair is a must for working mom... in my opinion! That is why I keep getting mine cut shorter and shorter.

I wanna teach! I think I'm going to try to take some online classes until we can afford for me to go to school. Your sixth graders are gonna love you! You have such good ideas, so I know you will bring all that out in your teaching!

Congrats on the new job that is awesome! I quit working in 2002 & I have found over the years that I got more done when I worked ~ Once I got a routine down.

On the hair, oh my. I wouldn't have the guts to do that to my girls. Glad they liked it though, I'd say you are both winners. They love there hair & you don't have to fight the hair :)

2009-08-22T13:38:15.619-06:00

I lurve what you did with your hair, helmet and all!!! We just might have to get you a bumpit so you can do it yourself!

But WTH were you thinking doing that to the girls???? OMG! I am so disturbed by this that I might just have to boycott your blog for um at least a few hours!

Turning my back on this new chaos...

Congratulations on the new job! Wasn't expecting that one when I popped over this evening to check out your blog. Hope you have fun with it. I know you will do just fine juggling it all. After all, you are super woman don't ya know. ;)

2009-08-21T15:36:31.263-06:00

Your hair looks awesome! And so do your girlies! Cute no matter how you cut their hairs.

I'm so excited for your job! You will be an amazing teacher (again!). And I say bring on the potty prancers. They are the big kids at the school, they need to be responsible to be good examples.

Love and hugs!

Good luck and congrats on the job!

2009-08-21T13:38:47.746-06:00

I am a short hair gal myself, I don't why people like to have long hair, it makes a huge mess, needs a lot of upkeep and it's always in the way. I really like your new cut, it's remarkably similar to mine, although I just got mine cut a little shorter. Good taste!
Oh, and the banner is AWESOME!

I like your hair and the girls look so cute. That was certainly the secret to getting them to smile in a picture!

2009-08-21T12:29:05.786-06:00

I tell you, I'm just finishing week two on this full time job gig, and it is TIRING!! I'm exhausted by 9:00 and I'm a night owl! Or should I say WAS a night owl. I have started walking in the mornings because I know I won't have the energy later, and since I'm not a morning person it actually helps wake me up.

Congrats on the new job, the new hair and the new, relaxed YOU! I'm sure you are going to come up with some "chore charts" and look forward to copying them in my amateurish way!

2009-08-21T11:36:15.439-06:00

yay for you!!! Going back to work is exciting. I also (sort of) work at a "school" (honestly, some of these so called 18 year old adults at my University, I'm not sure if their Mom's know they are coming here, they HAVE to only be 12!!!! and they're drinking COFFEE! I feel the need to call their parents! and they don't wear mitts... tragedy, I tell you!)

anyway, I hope you really enjoy it. And the girls look just fine. lollipops and all. (and I thank God daily for call display!)

Congrats on the new job! (I just took a full time...

2009-08-21T11:04:45.965-06:00

Congrats on the new job! (I just took a full time job as well, so my limited blog time will be diminishing even more, too.) Love your new look (and for the record, your head looks very normal sized) and the girls, too! That was quite a great strategy...who knew they'd love it?! = )

P.S. I don't think backcombing works for anything other than hair...sorry 'bout that! LOL

2009-08-21T09:15:03.274-06:00

Congrats on the new job! I love your welcome banner...I should make myself one, but probably won't because school starts for me on MONDAY!

Love your hair...totally understand the short haircuts on the girls. Our dd starts PK and I'm wondering how I'm going to get all 3 of us out the door together, looking put together. It is causing me some anxiety. Thank goodness ds is pretty good about getting it together in the morning.

As for the housekeeping, my house stays much cleaner and neater when school starts. We're home less, so there is less time to make a mess. I feel like I clean ALL summer long, so going to work is a break since things stay cleaner longer.

Take care and have a great school year!
Blessings,
Lisa

Congrats on the new job, Jill! And on all the new 'dos. I love the short hair on the girls and the highlights on your hair!

BTW, if you want tips on how to relax your housekeeping standards, feel free to ask. I'm a pro at relaxed homekeeping...

2009-08-21T07:46:26.509-06:00

Tell me, did you make that adorable Welcome sign in your picture? It looks seriously like your handiwork, all cute and all. If not, where did you get it? I start teaching again on Monday and need something adorable.

Last year and the year before I taught 4th, then 5th grade, following one group of kids. I was hoping to teach them 6th grade this year, but no...I only get them for one hour. I have to teach Literature to 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th graders. I get to stay in one room (Yay!) but will miss having MY OWN class to brainwash. :)

So anyway, I am totally pumped that you're back teaching school because that means you'll probably be coming up with some cool school organizational tips for me. Your cute ideas are way cuter than my cute ideas.

LOVE the Potty Prancers. I have long looked for a way to keep students from "having" to go to the bathroom 5 minutes after they just got back from a 45 minute lunch break. Seriously, why should they have to use THEIR OWN LUNCH TIME to relieve their bladders?

I snuck a peak at Zoe's "issue" picture. I hope it will comfort you to know that when I was a girl, I had a friend who "rocked."
She did it well into her teens.Hmm. Maybe that's not such a comfort. Anyway, she's not the only one.

And when you learn how to backcomb the sistahs, I'm all about it.

Cute haircuts all around ladies.

Good luck on going back to work. I know how hard it is so if you can only post once a day, we'll try to understand. :)

Congrats on the new job---that banner rocks by the way!!

I think it's a win-win on the haircuts, everybody is happy!! I love your new cut, I would love to try something like that but am too chicken

2009-08-21T07:39:09.886-06:00

I was wondering if you were going back to work this year or not. I'm so happy for you.

Also I LOVE the girls hair. My youngest daughter like's keeping her hair short but my oldest daughter refuses. As a result I spend a good chunk of every morning trying to fix it to her satisfaction LOL.
