Baby Girl Bed head - Installment 4

This new twist on a "side part" is what we woke up to on April 2nd. 


Check out that volume!

Baby Girl Hair Bow Holder

I've seen these around Pinterest for a while now, but never actually looked at a tutorial.

Instead, I just set about making one my own way.

I'm sure there are ways to make these a little more, um... resilient (?) but this will work for me.

I definitely encourage you to check out how others made theirs.

BUT, if quick and easy is the way you want to go, here's what I did:

Gathered some material, ribbon, and a spray painted embroidery ring.


Laid it out.

Tightened it up (and tightened the material and ribbon as I tightened the ring).

Trimmed it.

And, stuck on my bows!
(Shameless plug - I am OBSESSED with Ruby & Sue's bows for the little miss. I mean, do they come cuter than this?! Check her out!)

I just found two smaller rings in my closet that now I have to paint and do this to... I mean, I do have more bows after all...

Face Lift

Well, the bloggy blog got a facelift.

I hope to make it more fancy in the future, but for now a new name will have to do.

I'm learning about grace. Giving it and accepting it.

Lots of it.

Kids requires grace all day long. Because I have kids, I require grace all day long. Seeing it practically like this every single day reminds me how often God's grace comes in handy.

Oh, He's so good to us.

And, even as I try new things (which is a scary thing for me) I need to give myself grace when they don't turn out as I hoped. Craft fails, recipe fails, even laundry fails,... it happens. More than I care to admit. I need to show myself grace and try, try again.

So, this is our grace filled journey of imperfection.

Hope you like it.

Baby Girl Bed Head - Installment 2

This is actually a throwback to an Instagram post from Feb. 22 that I COMPLETELY forgot about.

Classic.


Thankfully, she lets me spray her down with detangled and she enjoys getting her hair brushed... for now!

We Have a Situation...

...aka Baby Girl Bed head

Oh my.

It's been out of control lately.

So, I'm going to be documenting the amazingness here on the blog.

(This project has been inspired by my sweet friend Kodi and her bed head adventures.)

So far, I have 4 days to share with you.

As long as I don't cut those curls, I'm sure there will be many more to follow!

Enjoy!

From March 4th:



It got even better on March 5th:


March 11:


And, from this morning:




I think March 5th is my favorite.
More to come!

Life at 9,300 feet...

It was sunny and warm yesterday.

We spent the better part of the day outside.

I even got a little sunburnt on my cheekbones.

Today, we woke up to snow.

Surprise, surprise.


Hope you're enjoying your Wednesday!
