A Flair For Hair!

Last November, Aunt Jamie, Uncle Chuck and Briana bought Rachel a little tote for her birthday. Inside of the tote were dozens and dozens of clips, clasps, bows and pony tail holders, a brush and a mirror. Rachel was thrilled. At the time, all I could see where 500 pieces that would end up all over the house and inside of my vacuum cleaner. That little tote has proved to be the most entertaining purchase in a long time. At first, Rachel spent all her time "doing" other people's hair. (Insert "ouch" here.)

However, since Sara has been home, and she sees Sara trying to "do" her own hair... she has decided that she is big enough to take on "fixing" her hair all on her own.

She goes into the bathroom, pulls out the little footstool, and spends hours quietly working to perfect her new hairdo.

At first... she would just help put the clips in to hold back her bangs that are still growing out. But then she decided to get a little adventurous.

Now I have always been of the mindset that less is more. Rachel has other ideas. Here she is posing with her MORE IS MORE hairdo... she likes to call it the ANGEL HEADBAND.

She does look a little angelic... don't you think??
