The "Piggies" are here!

I guess I've actually been able to "squeeze" (no exaggeration!) Caysja's hair into pigtails for a few months now, but I decided I better take some pictures of it because it's so cute. She really hates having her hair done every day, but I've been waiting SOOO long for her to finally HAVE enough hair that I could do something with, that I really can't bring myself to cut it (though she probably needs it)! It's going to be a long time before we can do ponytails!


One of my latest hobbies is to make my own hair bows because it's a lot cheaper that way! (I made the pink flower barrettes pictured below.)

CUTE!! I LOVE the barettes! I've been pretty lucky--I think Sara's hair fit into pigtails when she was like 2 months old. MaryAnn was probably just a little older. Caysja looks adorable in them though!

She looks soooo cute! I love the pig tails; don't worry I used a gallon of hairspray to keep Kenedee's in! And her pink dress & flower barettes are the cutest!

She always looks so cute and totally put together. I love her piggies! Little girls and piggies are to die for. So impressed with the bow making. We need to get together one of these days and go bow crazy! Hope you guys are surviving finals week.

So cute! I can't wait until I can do Bella's hair. As for my page I got it from that link on your page, and then I created my title in Photoshop and just uploaded it. I'm learning about how to do digital scrapbooking and I took a tutorial at this website http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/university/tutorials/ps_basicpage.shtml
I downloaded all the materials at that website as well. It has a ton of free stuff and it's so fun. I've never liked the regular scrapbooking but this is cool and free, the best part right for us poor people ;) If you want Photoshop let me know, I have it.

Okay, if I am having a girl I might just have to bug you to make me some of those darling bows. Is there anything you can't do?? You are capturing such adorable parts of Caysja's life.

What a cutie!

Wow Criscell! I can't believe you made the barettes yourself. When I have a little girl I'm going to need that skill! They are cuter than ones you can buy in the store! Of course Caysja is the cutest model! : )

Hey! Thanks for all your comments on my blog, glad someone is reading :)
how do you make the barrets? Do you hot glue the flowers on poppy clips? Caysja is so cute just like her mommy! :)

WAY CUTE!!! I remember those days for sure! I've never cut Sammi's hair and eventually the sides grew out enough so it doesn't look like a mullet. We've never even cut bangs (I don't want to deal with them) but when we pull her hair back, it looks like she has them cuz it's just the shorter hair falling out of the rubber band.

I visit teach a friend of mine who is SO GOOD at making hair bows. Someday when I have time.....your bows remind me of hers.

She's soo adorable! Can you teach me how to make bows? I sort of tried once, but I've forgotten.
