Hair


A friend introduced me to a really cool blog http://shedoeshair.blogspot.com/ (thanks JoLynn) with all kinds of hair ideas and directions on how to do them. We also had a haircutting and styling enrichment a few weeks ago. Since then I have been a lot more creative with Jessica's hair. At the enrichment I learned about these cool curlers. I had tried velcro rollers and she woke up without a single curl or roller in her hair. Then I tried a curling iron but was afraid of burning her. Then I finally invested in these (at Sally's). They are called "curlformers" and they curl either over night or these were in for 1 1/2 - 2 hours Sunday morning.
They stay in really well- She could even jump on the trampoline in them (and they would dry even faster)

Yea for Curls!!!


Everyday Girls

We have a playground right out our front door (literally). They really enjoy swinging together.
A girl in our ward is a yoga instructor and she has started teaching us Yoga on Mondays and Kickboxing on Wednesdays. It is really fun. We just go to the church gym and all the kids run around and play while we work out. Here Jessica is demonstrating yoga on our new mat.
Kelsi is now 11 mos old. I cam't believe she turns one at the end of this month. This year has flown by!
Jes is playing "horsie" on her bed. She really likes her bed. My parents made this bed for me when I was Jessica's age, then it was my sister Kelley's and now it is Jessica's. It is really nice because it has a lip on it so she doesn't fall out. When Kelsi gets bigger we are going to make a trundle bed out of a crib mattress on a board with wheels. We will have to make it strong, though, because knowing Jessica there will be jumping involved. For Christmas I made Jessica a Classic Whinnie the Pooh quilt to go with the peach bed.

Kangaroo zoo

We went with some friends to a place called Kangaroo Zoo. It is filled with bouncy toys. The girls loved it. I was surprised at how much Kelsi enjoyed it.

Kelsi is such a happy little girl.
