would she have my hazel eyes or her daddy's blue? (daddy 1, mommy 0)
would she have mine or her daddy's nose? (daddy 2, mommy 0)
would she have mine or her daddy's smile? (you guessed it - daddy 3, mommy 0)
is anyone starting to see a trend develop? is it too much to ask that your child look alot like you? it is only fair that our next child look identical to me.
i digress.
based upon the few physical characteristics between ryan and i that are similar, i knew it was safe to predict that our little girl would (1) have a rather large head (yep, 90th percentile! better to hold all those beautiful brains!), and (2), that she would have a headful of thick hair. the only question would be whether it would grow out stick-straight like her dad's, or naturally wavy/curly like mine.
well, of all things, my little girl got my hair!! if you look at photographs of me at the same age, we have the identical hair shade. over the past couple of months, alexandra's hair has grown very quickly and it now curls out over her ears and all over the back. poor little girl will have to battle humidity like her mommy for the rest of her life - as the day goes on, alexandra's curls grow bigger and bigger.
my sweet girl's hair has a mind of its own, and is at its peak after she has been sleeping. today's post-nap hairstyle was the best yet. i couldn't help but laugh when i entered her room, and then i promptly grabbed my rebel and started shooting away.
don't you just love it!! don't worry, i quickly put down the camera and combed all of the unruly hair into place.
you think 15 months is too young to start wearing hair product??

I have thought the same thing with Emily's hair. Is 3 too early to use straighten gel just to tame the madeness? hmm... I think so. I just douse her in conditioner and hope for the best. :) love having little girls!
So precious! My Avery doesn't have a prayer for a curl {sigh}
She looks exactly like my little sister did when she was that age. I'm jealous of her natural curl!
I think she may be a bit young to pull out the flat iron! I can sympathize, I have wavy(frizzy) hair too and my hubby has thick beautiful straight hair. I only hope our little one gets her daddy's!
She is just too cute.
