The haircut

Over the holidays when we were in California, Aunt Aimee cut bangs for my hair and Lisa was so funny--when she first saw me she said I looked weird. But then she started saying she wanted a haircut, so this week she finally got her wish. She kept emphasizing that she wanted it to her shoulders, but I really wanted to see it dramatically shorter ( I know I probably won't have any say whatsoever about her hair within the next few years so I better enjoy it now, right?) so I got Aimee to go just above the shoulders. I love it! Aimee cut it just so the back naturally flips under and has more body...so pretty. I have a lot of fun playing with Lisa's hair when she'll let me ( although just before this picture I burned her ear with the curling iron--ouch! I felt so bad, but she forgave me a lot faster than I expected)

Lisa also LOVES any kind of art project, so I am always trying to find fun things to make with her. Thank goodness for the internet and all the ideas I can find on there. The challenge at this point is finding projects where she can do most of the creating, instead of me just taking over and making it for her. But she really got into making there bracelets. Kinda makes me feel justified in keeping my stash of scrap-booking and sewing leftovers, too! :)
