the many faces and hairstyles of Ruthie

[mamajoan]

I have been having a lot of fun with Ruthie's hair, which has gotten so long that it needs to be put up or else it gets all in her eyes. It's so funny how different her hair is from mine and Isaac's -- ours is thick and mostly straight, hers is fine and so curly! It gets so tangled too. I have been using a Johnson&Johnson detangler but I'm not

Your children are beautiful. Thanks for posting pic's - - it's fun to watch them grow and change.

Uh oh, I think you may have a beautiful teenage girl on your hands in the not too far off future! Yikes!
I love her hair, the curls are so pretty. You know, Caspian looks fantastic with a pony tail, but I feel too guilty doing it because he gets called a girl often enough as it is. I stick with barrettes.

yeah, I tried barrettes on Ruthie but as soon as they're on she goes "off! off!" and fusses until I take them off. Maybe I'll try them again in a while, after she gets used to the feeling of having her hair up.

Damn your kids are all kinds of cute!

BTW, for tangles and curly hair, try using a leave-in conditioner instead of a baby or kids detangler. I use Aussie brand and have used it on my friend's 6 year old daughter with similar hair to mine. Just tell Ruthie to shut her eyes while you are spraying it on.
