Elizabeth being baptizedEllie with her favorite kitty RooEllie Bear with RooThe boys’ hair was in desperate need of trimming. I tried to convince Lucas that this would be a nice hairstyle! He looks so cute! But, alas, he would have nothing of it. 😀 I do like the final haircut, although I should not have buzzed it so short (see final cut below)New haircut 😍Silly Dewdrop!
