our girl in pig tails

Kendall's hair is just growing & growing ... and I'm LOVIN' it, I cannot deny! Over the last several months we've gotten to the point that her hair is past the bangs-stage, covering her eyes, so it has to be pulled back or else it is in her face ...  I normally have it pulled up on top (what I like to call the "pebbles look" from old The Flintstones cartoon) ... but today we tried pig tails (or some people call them "dog ears") ... regardless of what you call it, we thought it was pretty cute, although I think it does make her look older! 

I never get tired of dressing this girl ... whether it's dressing her up, or dressing her in a casual outfit, I love it!  And she is becoming quite a girly-girl herself ... she just started saying the word "bow" ... and if she sees a bow lying out somewhere or at a store, she says bow & touches the top of her head to reach her bow ... or she'll try to put the bow on herself, or her baby doll and says "boooowwww" in her little southern accent!  There are times when she isn't wearing a bow (I know you may be shocked by that, but it is very true!) and if she's noticed it, she is a bit concerned about it, saying "bow? bow?" & patting the top of her head.  Even after I've reassured her that it's okay & tell her that we forgot it, or left it at home, or just aren't wearing one right now, she'll still bring it back up later ... like she has not forgotten.  She is hilarious ... busy, busy, busy ... & is growing into having quite a little personality!

Here's our 17 month old (14 months adjusted age) cutie-pie in our pre-school shirts today ... with pig tails ...



I double HEART this girl that God gave me!
