The Scissors Won!

I guess I knew that it was only a matter of time before this happened, but I kept hoping that my daughter would never find the scissors and do the dreaded deed. I am sure you know what I am talking about, in fact I am sure that most of you have similar stories to share. But unfortunately my daughter did find the scissors and while she had a moment alone she decided to take advantage of it and give herself a haircut. She was so proud of herself when she came out of my room so how could I get very mad at her? She cut her gorgeous long hair above her eyebrows and about to her ears. Well, we went and saw Aunt Debbie for a little intervention. It is cute, but it will definitely take some getting used to. Gone are the easy days of pony tails and in are the days of having to blow dry her hair and figure out how to do it. It will grow back, it will grow back, it will grow back, I keep trying to convince myself that it IS ok. Here is a quick picture of the new do! I hope you like it and if you don't--well, please just lie to me and tell me that you do!!



If you have been to my house, you might notice that Brooklyn's room looks a little different. Yep, I have spent the past few days (with some help from some good friends) painting Brooklyn's room pink. She had Elmo before, but kept telling me she was too big for Elmo and wanted a pink room. Well, it definitely is pink. I will post more pictures when we get the furniture in and get it decorated. I am very excited to get it finished. Brooklyn LOVES her pink room even though it is empty. In fact, I think she likes it better that way. She decided she needed to dress in her princess dress to match her room and she wanted a personal photo shoot. How could I pass that up? Oh, now that the bed is out of the way of the window, the lighting is AMAZING!! We will be taking a lot of pictures in her new room.



You are beautiful, Brooklyn!
