My first haircut
So you all know what great curly hair I have, and how long it's been getting. But it had been getting more and more out of control and hard to brush, and so Mami and Daddy decided that it was time for my first hair cut.
Here's a pre-picture.
I did NOT like getting it sprayed down.

But then I sat contentedly on Mami's lap while the nice man snipped and snipped.
We were a little worried that if we cut the curls off the end we'd lose them forever, but we just weren't sure what it would do when it was shorter. Here's a post picture:

Clearly we had nothing to worry about, those curls are there as strong as ever! Too bad it's not still 1980, when this look was really in. But it's much more manageable now, and we still think I look cute as a button!

Sweater weather
It has been very cold in Florida this last week, colder than I've ever known it. Luckily, Aunt Lizzie gave me and Resli these wonderful sweaters for Christmas, and we've been getting a lot of use out of them.

Don't we look cute?

Thanks, Liz!
