A New Do

Yesterday, we had our cousins over to play with us for the afternoon.

This meant, that the babies all needed to get dressed in something other than their pajamas so that they could go outside and play, too.

The boys each had on their matching t-shirts and shorts and were good to go.

Vivienne, however, was still in her footed pajama's and needed something a bit cooler to wear outside to play in!

She followed me into my bathroom where her clothes are stashed in my closet, waving her hands as she babbled in tripletese.

While I rummaged through her wardrobe to find her a cute outfit to wear, she carefully inspected the potty in the other corner.

Finally, she looked up at me, shook her head and shrugged as she screamed gleefully, "Pee!"

Then she ran into the hallway to wait for her outfit. She picked out a little white denim dress with bloomers and helped me get herself dressed.

Since I had her cornered, basically, I grabbed her brush and tried to take advantage and get those pesky knots out of the back of her hair.

To make up for all the pulling and torture, I grabbed a scrunchy out of my drawer and decided to see if Vivie had enough hair to put up.

I carefully brushed everything into a little tiny pony-tail, and wrapped the scrunchy around her very fine hair.

Somehow, I managed to get enough together and even to get a real pony-tail out of it for her!

She was so very proud of her new "Do" and hair ornament that she just HAD to go and show her cousins!

Unfortunatly, the scrunchy was too big to stay in for very long, but she practiced wearing her new do all day yesterday!

Today, I found some tiny baby-girl scrunchies with little curly ribbons on them at the grocery store.

Tomorrow, she is going to be so very excited when I fix her hair for her!
