first walking…NOW pigtails??!

February 19, 2010

So…today I had a little fun with Mia’s hair…she is almost 10 months old and already WALKING, yes that’s right….both my kids have been “early” walkers, I don’t know if that’s a good thing or not!  We used to joke that once Ben started walking at 10 months old, we never saw him again :) but alas we did, and we DO see him, just in faster paced intervals.  Somedays it feels like Mia’s “babyhood” is flying away so fast…and then other days I cuddle her in my lap watching her have her bottle and I know she’s still my little baby.

From the day she was born Mia had a full head of hair, then a lot of it got rubbed off from sleeping…and then it grew back and has kept on growing ever since.  I decided to try out some pigtails a few weeks ago, but it wasn’t quite long enough in the back and sufficed to say it wasn’t her best hair day.  So I tried again today, and you gotta understand that after having a boy first I have been literally WAITing to get my hands on a little girls hair!!  So I was quite pleased when I saw this….

Pigtails!!!  To me this is a monumental moment in a little girls life….FIRST pigtails!!   So yes I had to document it….Here she is (above) handing me back the brush, with a cheeky little expression to boot :)

DSC_1587Our little sweetie, we just love her so much…she has brought SO much joy into our lives….the first thing Ben asks for when he wakes up (other then wanting to watch Mickey Mouse clubhouse) is for his Mia!  He just can’t get enough of her either, and he is a VERY good big brother (rough at times, not really realized that Mia can’t wrestle yet, she can hold her own though!) But if anyone is getting too close to her that Ben doesn’t really know he’ll stand up and say “That’s my baby sister!” it’s like he is staking his claim on her.  Very sweet to see them together….here is one last photo of the two of them……
