That girl. That third child of mine. It seems like most photos I take of her lately are of her getting into mischief. No, she's not a bad child by any means, just a very curious child. It's hard to be mad at her when she looks at you with those big brown eyes and says "sorry mommy". She has such a sweet temperament, really.
Lately she's been getting into lipstick and playing with fingernail polish. I've always said that the age of 3 is more challenging than 2. Where does that 'terrible two' saying come from anyway? Ava will be 3 in 2 months.
Sunday morning she decided to give herself hair cut. Not just a little snip. Yes, I was upset.
There wasn't much I could do with it, but I tried my best to even it out. Now my little one is sporting a pixie cut. I did make her a new flower barrette, which she loves, though there's hardly enough hair to clip it on. There will be more of those in the works, possibly a tutorial?
It's only hair. I'm sure we'll look back on this one day and laugh about it. Yesterday, not so much. On the bright side, she's quite proud of her new hair, though she was a bit confused when she looked in the mirror this morning. To quote her "Ava has baby hair, like daddy" (Matt has no hair). Hair or not, she's still my little cutie!
