The bribery after the haircut. Rita bought Nolan a chocolate milk from the in-house J.R. Java. 

OK, maybe that wasn't so bad, after all. 

All Done! He's so handsome! 

LET ME DOWN! 

He's really ready for the haircut to be over. (Rita was so patient with squirmy little Nolan) 

Haircut pics

Now he's SURE it's not a good idea. 

First Haircut

Nolan's not so sure that a haircut is a good idea.

Come one, come all

The above link is to my Twin Cousin's (I'm 15 minutes older, for real) blog. She's pregnant now! YAY!

Something's missing

Really. There are several posts that are not here anymore! Especially the link to my cousin's blog (Will put it back asap) and updates on Nolan.

He is now 17 months old, and he really doesn't say anything. Nope. No talking. He grunts a lot.

Around here, let's see...this past month, we've had the beheading in Boise (search for Alofa Time on www.ktvb.com to see THAT hair-raiser), a murder-suicide here in Wendell, several brush fires within a few miles of my home, and this last week, a 15-year-old drowned in the Snake River...they still haven't recovered her body because of the hydraulics of the river.

I've kayaked that section, and I don't have a CLUE why people insist on swimming in that river. You're floating along, and all of a sudden, SUCK, down one end of your boat goes. This is on FLAT water, in a *very* buoyant boat. How very sad. She jumped in to save her dog, and they both didn't surface.

OK, so I'm feeling a bit morbid today.
