Major Milestones for This Month: TOOFS, a little bang trim, and lots of words (hot, hiney, Jane, more, moo, HI DAD, Mama)!!!!!!!
As you can see, any attempts that I make at putting their hair in pigtails usually goes awry. I'll just keep trying.

It's a little bit flimsy, but that's good because when the girls pull it down on themselves, it doesn't hurt, just scares the everlivingshit out of them (and me!). We'll get them a nice Pottery Barn Kids one when they get a little bit older, and hopefully less rambunctious!
This month has been full of new friends and experiences, play dates, and a multi-city tour of many, many playgrounds. These girls are busy with a capital B. My head is spinning just thinking about all that we've done. I can't believe that we are back to school one week from today.
A big special thanks to my hair stylist, Sara, for putting up with us at the Beauty Lounge in Westwood today. She is seriously the sweetest, most patient person EVER, and she gave my babies their very first hair trim. Emma was a little cranky from a lack of nap today, but Jane just marched around the salon, watching as Sara washed my hair and inspecting all of the shampoos, just like a little girly-girl. It was THE best.
The finished bang-trim product can be found on my Instagram page. Follow me to see the pics! Or you can like my Facebook page to see all of the pictures from my Instagram account, along with frequent updates and some great mommy discussions!
We're getting ready for some pretty big changes around here. I can't wait to share all that we've done with all of you! Thank you all for being so sweet and understanding, and for continuing to follow us on this crazy journey of ours. You're all AWESOME!
Lots of love for the rest of your week! xoxo
