Yes, I did get Kalvis' hair cut. No. I don't like it. I cried real tears on the way home from the hairdresser (I know I'm a loser). I miss his big moppy black hair. Luckily it grows fast. It'll be back in no time. He looks way too grown up now. Miss my baby.

This beautiful location is nearby, and a great place for picnics, playing, riding bikes, pulling wagons, digging in sand and eventually splashing around in the water. Both Livija and Kalvis love it. The plan is to meet Papa on his way home from work once a week through the late Spring/Summer/early Fall for a good old fashioned family cookout. It's things like this that make me so excited for the warm weather. I love starting all these little family traditions.
