Before and after

                                    Yep, we did it. Brixton had his first haircut. Honestly I didn't mind the long hair and I would have let him grow it out for as long as he wanted, but he kept chewing on it. It was gross and we'd talk about it and he would promise not to do it anymore and then I find him chewing it again. I don't think he even realized he was doing it half the time. So, we decided together it was time for a  big kid almost 5 haircut. He is happy with it and so am I, although it is a BIG change for sure.

He looks so old!

Before

 

One of the mixed blessings of living in a hundred year old (more or less) house is that something always needs attention. Right now it's our front porch stairs.

 

                                    Having carpenters at the house is the best entertainment.

                                               A tarp tent to keep out the rain.
                                                  

 

 

                                               Discoveries.....the people before us left their marks.

 

I like thinking of the other stories that have happened in this house, the other families who made it their home. I like knowing that this house has nourished and held other lives, and that we get to be a part of that too.
