Hair 101

As you may already know, I have a crazy head of hair. I absolutely hate it when my Mommy combs it. It gets very tangled and there is a really rough patch in the back that matts all up as soon as i lie down. It has caused many tears for me and my Mommy. Well.... after many trail and errors we now have a pretty good system of combing it out:


First: My hair gets shampooed, then I get to use mommy's big girl curly hair conditioner, rinse, then I get conditioned again, before rinsing we comb it out with a really wide tooth comb while still covered in conditioner and very wet. Then we are all done. I get my hair patted dry after the tub and Voila!!

Big..... Crazy....

Tangle Free... Curly Hair (With much less tears!!)

Fun in the Shade

I have been a sick girl lately. I have a sinus infection and an inner ear infection. Mommy says I am one big runny nose. I had a pretty quiet weekend so Mommy decided that we would play outside on Monday. It was really nice out and she wanted to get some yard work done. Of course, I don't like the sun very much so we had some fun in the shade instead.

Now normally I do not like the outside very much, however, after a few moments of crying i really started to like it out here. Mommy could even hear me giggling to myself while she was working in the garden. (Although..... I refused to put my feet on the blanket the whole time?)

Mommy even gave me a little pedicure because I like the polish on her toes so much. I would look at her toes curiously...then look at mine.... then hers... then mine... yep they are the same colour. I had to make sure!!!

Baby Update: Well we are still taking it week by week. For all those who are unaware, we are having a baby boy who will be called Evan Henry. Mommy has very low fluid and is only 23 weeks today so she has been told he will probably be coming quite soon. We are hoping for at least 28 weeks. His heart is still not better from the Twin to Twin Transfusion..we were told that this would take time to get better. So hopefully he can stay put for a while!!! Good news is that his bladder is much better!!!

First Craft and New Pets

My First Fridge Art

Today I started a new preschool program called Stepping Stones. The goal of this program is for kids aged 18-36 months who for some reason or another need a transition to preschool. They get to meet new friends and interact with other children while the parents go to another room and have tea and coffee and talk or listen to guest speakers. My mommy was a little scared to leave me with preschool volunteers who have never met me and don't know my little "quirks" yet. The program is for only 2 hours but Mommy was still nervous. When she went to the parent room she then realized that all the parents were in the same boat, some were quite upset because its hard to walk away especially when your child is nervous as well. All the kids did great!!!! They have circle time, snack time (which I actually sat and watched the other kids eat...but hey...I actually sat there which is progress) and we got to do craft time. My mommy was so happy to get this lovely craft project from me today!!!!! Of course it is red..my favorite colour!!

Also here are my new pets that I got for Easter. Their names are Rufus and Magie. They live in my bedroom and I feed them every morning and night.

Bird Kingdom

On Thursday Mommy and I were bored so we took Grandma to Bird Kingdom. Mommy was excited for me to see tons of brightly coloured birds. Unfortunately it wasn't that great there. Although, there were these large pink birds I really liked:

These were the only birds I would pay any attention to. Grandma, however, really loves birds so she had a very good time taking over 100 pictures of them. I think she would like an aviary in her house.

An upside of the day was a last minute lunch at the Rainforest Cafe. I thought it was so cool there. (Mommy never goes because she thinks the food is blah!) I especially loved when the thunder storm came and there was tons of lightening. I wasn't even scared of the animals!!
