Third time's a charm...I think;)

Okay, I caved!

Ever since Karys' first hair-cut she has been asking for it to be "showter." I have been able to hold her off with a stream of examples as to why it would be best to keep it long. On Saturday my only example I could think of was that for ballet she wouldn't be able to wear it in a bun..."Well, we can wear a head-band Mummy!"

No dice! I could hold her off no longer! So, we got the final approval from Daddy and had to wait a few hours to make sure it was exactly what she wanted! She wouldn't stop asking "Can we cut it now??" *sigh*...okay, fine! You win...! And honestly, it's just hair and it will grow back, but the long locks are so "young" looking! A nice little hair-cut makes one look so much like a "little lady." I guess I am trying to hold onto the idea of her remaining "little." A fleeting hope, I suppose!

So...what do you think??

...eager anticipation...

...doesn't look like much, does it...


... TA-DA!!...

...my little lady...

And I figured, while I was at it, I may as well give Avery the necessary trim I had been avoiding! I may be one who resists change...if you haven't noticed:)

...all scruffy...

...getting it prepped...

...excited for the unknown! She had no idea what I was doing!...

...just a trim...

...done deal...

...a healthy trim...

...the end results...

...such a ham-bone...

...two trimmed up babes...

So, it's done! And Karys loves her new do! I mean she looooves it! And that's good right?? Avery has no idea that anything is different about her look, and that's good too! I guess I am just having a hard time letting go of my vision of my first baby with her beautiful, long locks. "Get over it!!"...right? I know...and I will! It's just taking me longer than anticipated!

Stay tuned for further posts about our Thanksgiving weekend...
