Pigtails! Pigtails! Pigtails!

I’ve been waiting for this day since finding out that I would have a daughter.  This may be the greatest thing about having Ella so far!

Of course, Carson didn’t want to be left out of the fun.

    She’s so cute!

    After having 2 boys I can’t wait to pigtail my daughter’s hair. At the moment I struggle with just running a comb through it – it’s so curly. But one day pigtails will be mine, oh yes.

    As a mommy of 2 girls… I will admit that the pigtails are some of my most favorite things!!

    If you don’t already have the many blog sites of hair-do’s for little girls (I must look at them every week for new ideas), let me know!

    LOVE THE PIGTAILS! I just had that realization the other day! I bought little bows to stick in my Bean’s hair! She doesn’t have enough for the pigtails just yet…

    They both look adorable!

    But why does Carson remind me of that Jim Carrey character from “In Living Color – Vera DeMilo, Bodybuilder,”

    I don’t mean any disrespect, but those two tiny piggy tales just shot that image into my sleep deprived brain.

    Hooray for pigtails! And little girls. I had a daughter first, and I have to say that there are some definite perks to female offspring. Pigtails are one, the super-cute clothes are another. :)

    [...] don’t know what the big deal is about pigtails. Honestly, why would I, the mother of all boys, be even a tiny bit [...]
