Girly Hair

The other day, I stumbled upon this blog Piper's Hairdos and as a mom of two little girls, I was thrilled. Alivia has wild hair. (Shockingly, Amelia has very little hair right now. Both Andrew and Livie were born with mullets. Even still, if she's anything like her older brother and sister, when it grows in it will be thick, wild and crazy. That's just the kind of children Jason and I produce.) I'm completely out of ideas when it comes to doing Alivia's hair. My choices consist of a braid or ponytail. Or maybe, if I'm feeling super adventurous, two braids or two ponytails.

This website is so cool, it shows a bunch of tutorials for all these different hairstyles. AND - there are links to other similar blogs on her sidebar. Some are way too advanced for me, but some I was excited about trying. I tried "the braided flower" today and this is what I ended up with. I know it's not nearly as perfect as her's but it's not too shabby - for my first try!

This is one of the many reasons I love having little girls! Now, if I could just get Alivia to like Barbies.....or even Polly Pockets. Actually she likes Polly Pockets. She thinks all the parts and pieces are super chewy and tasty! Did I mention she's almost 3 1/2? And still likes to put things in her mouth? Super!
