A New Haircut, and Gardening Time!

 This morning I got my hair cut! :) I donated 8 inches to Beautiful Lengths, which is similar to Locks of Love...they make wigs for those in need. After the hair was cut off, it was like my head was FREE! :) The above picture was taken by Austin right after I walked in the door from getting my hair cut.
 This is the picture I took while Claire was napping this afternoon. I discovered short hair is so easy to wash! I think my one-month supply of hair product will now last me about 6 months instead. Great! :)
 This last week I also planted my garden, since it will hopefully be warm enough not to kill all my little seedlings. This is the first year I started "transplants" (the plants you see on the windowsill)...usually I just buy started plants for my tomato and pepper plants. This water bottle idea was something I saw on Pinterest, and since I'm all about doing things as inexpensively as possible--of course I had to try it! :) So far everything seems to be going well (the plants seem to be surviving and growing well, in other words). I will put these little transplants into the garden with the rest of the plants in another month or so, once it really is starting to warm up.
Happy Spring everyone! Even Baby Girl is feeling happy today...because she is now in the home stretch as I enter my last trimester today! :) I hope everyone else is having a wonderful weekend! :)

Oh! I LOVE your new haircut! So, so cute!!!! I wish I was there to see it in person. Your garden seedlings look great. It isn't garden planing time here for another 6 or 8 weeks still. (Cause, you know, we have MORE snow in the forecast again this week.) Enjoy all the nice weather for me. Mom brought some nice weather with her when she came and then took it back with her when she left. :P Love ya! I'm so excited about your haircut!
