Where's the hair?

Ballet is tough on the hair! Oh yes it is - Buns 3 to 5 times a week and for Peter Pan we were braiding, taking braids out, braiding, spraying, glittering, braiding ...

SO what did we do as soon as the show was over?

Cut it all off...

Except - Me, being the total space case I have been the last few weeks - MISSED THE FIRST APPOINTMENT...the one I had scheduled on purpose to immediately follow Peter Pan - Luckily our "Gal" had a cancellation and we only had to wait 2 days!

Calm down a little would ya?

So, when Hailey gets her haircut or visits a Dr. she is as cool as a cucumber. Quite the opposite of her big sister. I have decided that Hailey actually has the ability to completely shutdown and go into some creepy state of relaxation during these outings. Lauren on the other hand...it takes me and two nurses just to do the eye test at the Dr. Hailey, doesn't move or say a peep when being examined, lets them draw blood without flinching it is odd.

But the best is the hair salon. She loves it there. She goes into a trance like state while getting her hair washed and has since her first trip! Sits quiet and doesn't move for the whole hair cut and LOVES being under the dryer. This is double strange since Hailey is a VERY hyper little girl! Each time we go she gets her hair washed even if it is not time for a trim and all the other patrons stand around in awe watching the transformation.

It is kind of like going from this

To this

I only had my phone, and I, myself, was stuck under a dryer (covering my grays) so these pictures are rotten but enjoy anyway!

Another Friday

The girls are getting their hair cut this morning! Hailey is looking forward to it and has been asking to go all week! She loves getting her hair washed at the salon (not at home though!). Sparing you all the details as to why my hair is a creepy dark color right now...Hailey is going to be very disappointed because when she got up this morning she held out her hair and said "mom, look it" "I gotta get it black like yours". Well, we all know that ain't gonna happen. Why on earth would she even want That?

When I first went to get her from bed I gave her a kiss and Hailey said "Thank you Mom" and I said Thank you for what? to which she replied "Thank you for kissing me" how sweet is that?

Lauren went back to the other studio for Ballet last night and mom got disciplined. The rules say "The hair must be pulled away from the face and secured" so we pulled it up in a ponytail. Hmmph. Ms. Danielle promptly informed me that it has to be in a bun. Shame Shame mommy. But don't you think they could have said that?

Lauren and Hailey are going to see Horton Hears a Who with Grams and Gramps tomorrow. It should be fun, Hailey has been recounting her theater experience when they went to see the Chipmunk Movie back in December so I am pretty sure she is looking forward to this one!

I will be packing while they are gone and with any luck having a quick chat with the Easter Bunny to verify the plans and guarantee arrival of said baskets.
