Beauty school

Vickey took the kids to get their hair cut today. Dominic ended up with what’s called a faux-hawk (that’s a Mohawk that doesn’t go down the back of his head). Whatever!

But it is cute in a sort of baby boy look at me way.




And Eliana asked her mom to take her to get her ears pierced! We thought she was set on waiting till her sixth birthday, but oh no, she decided that today was the day. According to Vickey, once Ellie saw the pink and gold earrings, it was all over.

Here she is, five going on fifteen.


And after her dip in the Coglianese pool…


She insisted she wasn’t done swimming for the year so she and Olympia joined the Coglianese kids for a short swim late this afternoon.

Tonight she’s sleeping in a tent in Olympia’s back yard with Olympia’s mom and sister. What a life!
