Gum Chewing and Our Short-Haired Boys

Our boys are an ongoing source of fun, laughter and entertainment for us and we hope to always take time to enjoy some of the little moments of boyhood that they share with us.

Just the other day, we were all in the car and somehow the topic of bubble gum came up (neither Don or I are big gum chewers so the boys aren't really around gum much to even know what it is!) But apparently, the last time the teenage babysitter was over she was chewing blue bubble gum so Benjamin was telling us this and I told him that bubble gum was for older kids. And that maybe when he was 6 years old he could try it. Knowing that 8 is actually his favorite number, Don jumped in and added... "Or maybe when you're eight!" Benjamin's response, "I don't want to try it until I'm eighty-eight!" hmmm. Time will tell how that works out.

Anyway, it's been at least a couple of weeks now since we took the boys for haircuts and got Samuel's curls all cut off but I'm just finally getting around to posting a couple of pics showing off our, once again, short-haired boys. It's taken a little while for me to get used to Samuel's super short hair. He looks so grown up now!
