Laughs with Livvy




Livvy, who is turning out to be as feminine as Amelia, opened up a large, new, and expensive jar of aquaphor. She worked very hard to beautify every inch of her body. Most of it ended up in her hair. She came to show me, so proud of her accomplishment, saying "Mommy, see pretty." It was a mess to say the least, and yet another of those parenting moments when all you can do is choose whether to laugh or cry. With Livvy's proud grin and globs of goop dripping off her face it was easy to see the humor in the situation. After giving her a bath and scraping out as much of the aquaphor from her head as I could, she was still a mess. That is when I took these pictures. We had a lot of fun with her hair which took 2 days and several baths to get back to normal.

Livvy is a very busy little girl I remember that from last summer! I love the hair do and I love the proud look on her face. What a cutie.
