Snip, Snip, Snip

Well....a lot happened last weekend. I took some of my favorite customers to a Bears game in Chicago while the kids got to stay with their Grandma and Grandpa Roy in the morning and then with their Grandma and Grandpa Power in the afternoon.

The Bears game was a blast! Although, I drank a tad too much and didn't realize the Bears even won until I asked when we pulled back in to Gilman :) (and no- don't even think I drove home). The kids came back home around 8:00ish and unfortunately I was still a bit over-served at this point. I put the kids to bed and in the middle of the night, Noah threw up 3 freaking times. Not only did he throw up, he threw up all over himself, the sheets, and Cali. So, at midnight, I am getting Cali and Noah in the bath and trying to clean sheets. This, my friends, is why I "never drink" :)

THEN.......morning rolls around and I get Cali up for school. Get her teeth brushed, clothes on, and I start to do her hair. SUDDENLY, I noticed that a big freaking chunk of her hair was gone. I questioned her about it. The dialogue went as follows:

Me: "Cali. Did something happen to your hair"??
Cali: (a look of cluelessness) "No".
Me: "Did it break off? No, there is no way that that much is gone. Really, what happened?"
Cali: (a look of complete cluelessness). "What are you talking about? I really don't know."
Me: "Ok. It really isn't a big deal, but you will be in trouble if you don't tell me the truth"
Cali: (insert Cali's lie face here) "Ok. Justin Nimbler did it at Shanna's during crafts the other day"
Me: "Ok. NOW you are in trouble. We don't lie in this house"
Cali: "ok...ok...ok. Nanna ____ (I'll protect her identity on this one :) let me do it"
Me: "Grandma let you cut your hair"?!?!
Cali: "Yeah, we are twins. But she told me not to tell you"

Clearly this story seems completely made up. Well, I called Grandma ____ to question her about it and she denied it (at first) until I told her that Cali already told me. She started laughing and said that they are twins because they both have "QUARTER INCH BANGS". Cali asked to cut some of her bangs so that they could match the ones she just cut on Grandma. Agreeing, Cali cut her bangs and they hid the evidence. Needless to say, I hope Cali doesn't ask to snort blow at age 5, because we may be in trouble.

What can I say...two peas in a pod :)
