So, I'm sitting here listening to Ana sob.

[conuly]

To hear her tell it, I'm just the meanest auntie around. First, I *brushed her hair*, and then I *brought he to the living room, which is full of her toys*.

If she doesn't shut up soon, I'm going to be forced to take drastic measures. For example, standing with her in front of the light switch.

On the subject of hair, I pulled it back in one ponytail, but now she's got wisps where her bangs would be if she had bangs. It looks a bit messy, but I have no idea how to fix it. Help?

Edit: She's napping. Again. Her sleep is messed up because she's sick, that's why she's so tired and miserable. Poor baby. *hugs*

I've learned pigtails always work good on babies. My niece had the smallest bit of hair, but whenever she saw her cousin's (who has a full head of hair)hair up, she would beg to have hers up. They made the tiniest little tufts of hair, but she was happy.

But we don't have enough matching ties to make pigtails, and she is fine with a ponytail. She's a toddler, and she's had a full head of hair since she was born.

If you have wisps, you need hairgel or mousse...and failing that, water does the job for a few hours.

[snale.livejournal.com]

Do you think she'd let you put some small barettes in to keep the wisps back?

[conuly]

Problem was solved when I realized Jenn didn't leave me the keys to leave the house.

[conuly]

Sorry for snapping. I was supposed to run by Jenn's new daycare, but she didn't leave me the keys, and I was a bit frantic.

[conuly]

If barrettes in this house were in matched pairs, she'd have pigtails.

[snale.livejournal.com]

Eh, matching is overrated anyway. :)

This girl is wearing a black onesie (tres chic), and a matching set of purple overalls and purple jacket. And black shoes. Dammit, her hair has to match! I can't put that much effort into her outfit and fail on her hair.

[eofs.livejournal.com]

That does sound rather adorable :0) Did you not have one black elastic and one purple elastic?

[snale.livejournal.com]

That girl is more co-ordinated than I currently am.

[conuly]

Various shades of purple, but that does not, mihi, count as matching.

And now she's got snot all over it anyway, so :P

[conuly]

Toddlers tend to be.

[eofs.livejournal.com]

I was figuring that if you can't do an exact match, go for a deliberate contrast.

Of course, I don't see what's wrong with wisps in the first place... ;0)

It's okay. I take no offense. I get panicky and snappy when I stress too.
