By now you know the challenges I face in dressing my daughters. Sydney prefers dresses with short sleeves, but sleeveless is best. Natalie refuses footie jammies and no chance of a hat of any kind.
And when it comes to doing their hair, forget about it. Well, poor Natalie is still sporting her mullet these days until her hair growing speed kicks in a notch. But Syd, I've been fighting to do pig-tails or put her hair in curlers for months and months.
No, for Syd there is one hair accessory and one hair accessory only - the pink bow. Maybe you've noticed by now, but pretty much every picture of her, she is sporting the pink bow. She wears it every day and even to bed at night. (I gave up the fight long ago.) Throughout the day, I get requests, "Mommy, can you please fix my bow." When I do it wrong, I'm instructed, "no, Mommy, I like high and on the side." I get little pleasures of putting it "low and in the middle" some days, just to mess with her. :)
When I say, "Syd, can we do a purple clippy today or maybe a headband,"...this is look I get. We've all got our own thing...I guess!
