Bad bug

AJ, Tessa and I were helping a friend decorate for a wedding at the Cherokee Historical Society building ( in Canton). While we were decorating the porch we saw two very interesting caterpillars. Tessa accidentally bumped one and it HURT! I didn't realize how bad the caterpillar was until we got home and googled it. The furry caterpillar (a furry puss caterpillar aka the toxic toupee) has poisonous spikes ( it is the most venomous caterpillar in the U.S.) that can be extremely painful if touched.
Tessa had a miserable day until we really treated her wound. We had some sting wipes that were able to sooth it some and have her some ibuprofen and benadryl. She was able to sleep well and in the morning she felt fine. It has since scabbed up but seems to be healing fine other than that.

Haircuts...finally

The boys NEEDED haircuts. AJ let me cut his hair with no problems. Nathan wanted to keep his hair long but he needed his side burns and duck tail cut. We made a deal- I would take him for his first scissor cut. He told the barber what he wanted and she started cutting. It was great, i didn't have to deal with his crying. It was worth it.

Minecraft. And so it begins.

Nathan has been saving his money for quite a while now. He decided after watching his cousins play Minecraft and looking at lots of Minecraft building sets He decided He wanted to buy one. After a few months of saving he finally had enough to buy the Minecraft creator box. He was SO excited when it got here ( kind so was AJ)!

Take me out to the ball game

We went to the Braves game early so we could watch the alumni softball game before the game. It was VERY hot but a whole lot of fun!

Science is cool

We had to take something to David's work and daddy had a surprise for AJ and Tessa. He had some dry ice to show them. They thought it was pretty cool.
