Zaylee's Hair

Jeff gave Zaylee a nice long bath this evening, during which he scrubbed her hair out thoroughly, several times, with dish soap. After drying it off with the towel, we were all seriously amused at the results:

It should calm down when it's combed out. Isn't she cute?!?!

Hope Michelle's tips helped you!! Looks like the dishsoap worked!; April 30, 2008 at 5:38 AM
Sarah said...: Her hair turned out shorter than I thought, or maybe it is that it's just all wild in these pictures. I'm glad you can laugh at it. It is pretty funny.; April 30, 2008 at 9:30 AM
Michelle said...: Gotta love how curly hair always ends up shorter than you think it will when you cut it. I will try not to take too much more off on Saturday. Thanks for letting me yap your ear off last night, I have the most awesomestest sisters!; April 30, 2008 at 12:44 PM

Melinda said...: Having missed out on a couple days, this pic was a total surprise to me. But it's way cute. After reading the reason for it, so sorry you had to go through that...what a mess! It'll look way cute with a couple barrettes, though.; April 30, 2008 at 4:19 PM

Kiddie Quotes

This morning Zaylee came up to me carrying my purse and said, "Mommy, here's your person!"
I had just washed my hair and blown it dry. It was very, um, full of body. Zaylee looked at it and said smilingly, "You're a lion!"
We were headed to the car, and Zaylee was about to run out into the parking lot. I grabbed her dress to stop her. When I let go, she said indignantly, "Hey, what's the big idea?" I didn't even know she knew that phrase!
I was driving with Zaylee in the car yesterday and we were both being quiet. To make some conversation, I asked, "How you doin' Zaylee?" She sighed and said, "Yeah, she is so pretty." I have no idea who she was talking about.
I was putting on the movie Princess Diaries, and I told Zaylee, "This is a movie about a princess." She repeated, "This is a movie. I'm a princess."
I had the vacuum out this morning after using it last night. Zaylee found great entertainment in pulling on the hose and watching it snap back into place. As I unplugged it and started putting it away, she said such things as: "You wanna pull on macuum, Mommy?" "Bye bye, macuum, have a good nap!" and, as I was putting it away in its closet, "I love you, macuum!" while making a kissing noise. How funny!
Zaylee mimics just about everything we say, though often makes mistakes in pronunciation. Today I offered her a cracker, saying, "Here, have a soda cracker." She took it and said, "Yeah, a super cracker!"
Jeff and Zaylee were playing on the floor. Wanting him to get up, she said emphatically, "Daddy, stand BOP!"
This morning Zaylee came into the kitchen where I was making breakfast. She was blowing very energetically in and out through her nose. I asked what she was doing, to which she replied, "I'm glowing!"
