See? Not even a little brown and shriveled.
We fixed up a kid's bike with training wheels! I think Larkin would actually be fine without the training wheels at this point except that she can't quite reach the ground with her feet so she relies on them to keep her balance as she stops. Finn would be a little more secure if he had any inclination whatsoever to watch where he's going. They've had some tumbles, but so far the bike riding has been deemed totally worth the danger.
We have been repeatedly asking Finn if we could cut his hair because it looked so annoying (to us!) and he recently agreed to a summer shearing. I wish I had a before picture, but suffice it to say that the above photo is after about 6 inches of hair were clipped off. I have enjoyed seeing his eyes again, and he has enjoyed hearing everyone tell him how handsome he is with his new haircut.
In other hair news, Larkin's hair is almost down to her waist and she recently decided to grow out her bangs. They're almost long enough to tuck behind her ears, but she may tire of them before they get all the way there.
There are lots more pictures at the Picasaweb site... we'll probably be a little trigger-happy with the new camera for a little while.
You may also notice that we started a Food Album for Larkin. She has always been a cautious eater, and we've been feeling like it's easy to get stuck in ruts of what food we offer her. So we've been taking pictures of the foods she enjoys eating as we make them so she can browse through the album and choose what looks good. This album is only for foods that can be made using supplies we usually have in stock so gratification can be relatively instantaneous. The specialty trip-to-the-store-required items album can come later. It's amazingly difficult to make food look tasty in pictures.
Larkin has been sewing! I cut up some soft old clothes and she finished the edges so we have new nose wipers:
