nap time

today, i made an attempt to take a lil nap with velz- knowing very well that it would not really happen. but it was funny trying. notice her fingers in my hair? have we ever discussed velzy's hair obsession??? let's!velzy is ob-sess-ed with hair. in fact, obsessed is an understatement. well, unless your hair looks like this: and then she is a little confused. (hope you don't mind a picture of your hair on here brynn, and if you do too bad, "cause i'm the boss of myself")

anyways, as i was saying, she is really into hair. it goes back to when she was just a little tyke and would play with my hair as i fed her, so i guess it's a soothing thing. there have been times while i have been driving and she has sat in her car seat with hands outstretched crying to play with my hair. there have been times when i have had to sit next to her in the car and let her play with my hair to fall asleep or just to get her to calm down. most of the time as soon as i pick her up one hand goes straight for my hair to stroke or twirl it. and it's not just my hair, she totally plays with luke's, and everyone else's for that matter. she has caught many a person off guard when they pick her up and she grabs some hair to play with.

at any given time if you catch her asleep chances are at least on hand, if not two, is in her hair. oh, and my favorite hair playing scenario is this: i am feeding ivy on the couch and velzy comes up and sits next to us then starts playing with her hair in one hand and with ivy's in another, it's actually really cute. if she is not a hair-stylist when she grows up i will be supprised.

ok- do you ever get to the end of what you want to say, or just get sick of typing and don't know how to end a post? i totally have that right now. i could go on and on about velzy's hair obsession, but tiredness just hit, it's late, and i want to stop typing but don't know how to tie this all up. guess i just gotta press the publish post button.

This means you can never cut your hair, Ash. Velzy would be devistated. I am just picturing her with one hand playing with her own hair, and the other with baby Ivy's. SOOO darling.

Or if you do cut your hair, you'll have to donate it V instead of donating it somewhere else.

That is so funny! You are funny, especially lately!

sadie is a hair twirler, but it sounds like velzy is way more hardcore. i don't let sadie twirl mine cause i hate the way it feels. you're a nice momma.

Ashley, I think this is adorable. How cute is it that she touches other people's hair? I hope she is a stylist when she gets older!
