New Hair-Dos!

Both of the girls got a new hair-do! For the first time ever, I attempted cornrow twists on the front half of Hope's hair. I got better as I went and it's all a little fuzzy, but practice makes perfect! One of the best parts is that Hope hardly cried while I did her hair! Usually she cries pretty much uncontrollably. This time it was better. I was going to do all little twists in the rest of her hair but I totally ran out of time. It's so hard to find time to get her hair done! It's impossible to do when Aliyah is awake. The easiest time to get it done is when Daryl is home but then we usually have so many other things that we are trying to get done (or we are just enjoying family time together!) that it's hard to set aside enough time for it. This time I did the first half while she was eating breakfast and lunch and then the second half after Aliyah went down for her nap and Samuel was just running around playing. Hope was tired and ready for a nap but I just put in a video and gave her her pacifier and she did well. After I was done she had to run and go look in the mirror. Beautiful girl!!



And Aliyah got her very first set of pigtails! I'm not biased or anything (ha ha!) but I think she looks absolutely adorable! And maybe a little bit too old . . . so hard to believe that my baby will be 1 in just a month!
