Practice makes perfect- hopefully!

These are some of my first attempts at fixing Alli's hair. I realize I need a little practice (these are my most successful attempts so far), but it's very difficult to gather a small amount of baby fine hair into a ponytail holder when the head that it is on is constantly moving. And when I do succeed, it is usually pulled out moments later by someone's little hands, so it makes it hard to want to put forth the effort to get it done. I suppose I also need some better ponytail holders that aren't so easy to pull out and maybe that don't look like they belong in the 80's (these just happen to be what came in a little purse set that we got her).

I think she looks adorable anyway. I think the toothbrush is distracting her from pulling her hair down at the moment.

That is her beloved babydoll that she is clutching. He sleeps with her everynight, along with a few other babydolls and a giraffe too- oh yes, and sometimes the "Shout" Elmo when she makes a special request for him!
