Locks of Love

It was past time for a haircut for my girls. Maranda was born with a head full of hair and it has always been long. People would stop us in stores and compliment her hair. While it was beautiful it was a chore. She is so tender headed and would cry when I would brush her hair. With summer coming she asked to get it cut off. It took me a lot of debating to agree but I finally did. This past Saturday I got it cut. Eleven inches gone with a few snips. I talked with her about Locks of Love and we have decided to donate her ponytail to them.

A moment of shock when I handed her the ponytail.


Before.


After.

She looks so grown up here. I am so proud of her for doing this for a little boy or girl to have a wig.

Caroline has baby fine hair that just always looks stringy and nappy so I decided to get hers chopped too. She was only able to have 8 inches cut not enough to donate.

Sassy and a little sweet.

It's a chilly rainy day here thankfully the weekend is coming and I am planning on breaking out the sewing machine and whipping up some summer dresses for the girl. Hope you are all having a great week and wonderful plans for the weekend.

TTYS!

Life

Hi Y'all! I am still around, just not as much in blog land lately, but hope to change that coming up soon. I had to get a new computer 'cause the other one just left me high and dry. Things have been slow on the crochet front lately, I have been sneaking around with the knitting needles a little here and there. Lets just say I won't have to buy dishcloths for a long while. The amigurumni bug has bit this week, I started a Weenie Dog pattern that is so cute. No pictures downloaded to the computer yet but will show you some as soon as I get them on here. I have some crappy cell phone pics on my Ravelry page of a couple of the dishcloths if you wanna take a peek. My user name is Marcarmom.

I have to run, my kids are jacked up tonight like they are on a sugar high, but will be catching up soon.

Happy Spring to all and TTYS!
