New do's...

I finally got the courage to chop my hair off! My hair was getting too long and heavy. I have really thick hair and when my hair is long it just wears me down. I love my new do, but I haven't really figured out how to style it like I like. When ever I get my hair cut the stylist styles it and I always love it. But when I try and recreate it it never turns out.

Speaking of hair do's...

What the heck am I supposed to do with this little girls mullet/rat tail?! I really want to cut it but I can't because it will be uneven when it finally grows out. Thank goodness for big bows and headbands (if she keeps them in). It distracts people from looking at her mullet! It helps that she is such a cutie too! HA! I know I'm partial!

1 year, 9 months and 11 days....

....that is how long my best friend has been gone...

It's been 1 year, 9months and 11 days and it is not getting easier. I long for her. I wish I could have one more phone call, one more hug, one more laugh. I have really been missing her lately. It is the most random times when I miss her the most. Driving home from work is the WORST. We used to talk everyday at 5 pm on our way home. I haven't let myself erase her number from my phone...maybe it's time. I get depressed every time I see her name in my addresses. I haven't got to the point where I think about her and smile because of the wonderful times we had...When I think of her I just get really sad because I don't have her anymore. I know this is selfish but I guess everyone grieves differently. I miss her so much. I have a picture of Nicole and I in our living room and Madison LOVES it...here are pics of her looking at it today...

I ask her "Where is Auntie Nicole?" and she points to her..

Then she kisses her...so sweet!

We had such a wonderful Christmas full of family and friends. We feel truely blessed! Madi got spoiled of course, but I set up the basement as a playroom so there is plenty of room for every thing. Even though she is too young for Santa, it was fun watching her rip open the presents.
