and for a moment

i gasped. i was looking for a photo and came across this from our trip to australia in 2009. since then, she's decided to grow her hair out. everyone who knows her comments that it makes her look older. while i want to support her decision to grow it out, i loved her little bob hair cut and miss it lots! šŸ˜¦ 81540012

since these pics too, she's given up hair clips and jeans. she's also given up her sippy cups which means she won't drink plain milk anymore because 'it tastes funny' and only drinks chocolate milk. all 4 of my kids did that. now cam's the only one who drinks plain milk. she also gave up bananas. and something else i can't remember. little lola has definitely been an influence šŸ™‚

that's it. random post i wasn't planning on posting until i saw those pics and they took my breath away.

  1. she’s so cute! I want to see a recent picture with her hair grown so I can see if she looks older or younger! does she have bangs or no? bangs can make you look older too! I noticed that on some kids sometimes! one of my girls got her hair super short and she looks younger, but the other one got hers cut medium length and it made her look 2 years older UGH!!! at any rate, els is so cute any style! tara

  3. I’m still waiting for Keira to have MORE hair for me to comb and put clips in. And still waiting for her to drink milk out of a sippy. And I’m sure when that day comes, I will be wishing it didn’t. Why do they grow so fast?

  4. Oh, I remember her that little. My heart breaks when then grow, but also love how they change, have their own thoughts, ideas and independence. My kids milk tastes changed too, post sippy, isn’t that interesting. But I have 3/4 chocolate and 1/4 white. I don’t complain, at least they drink it šŸ™‚ Have a great day! And I do love, love, love seeing more posts by you.

  5. she is so adorable!! and they grow up so fast, don’t they? My kids don’t like plain milk either. Arden went from no pants to mostly pants/jeans. funny how they change their opinions!

  7. aw~. i miss that bob too! thankfully my son takes any milk. white. pink. chocolate. unfortunately, i’m still working on getting the baby girl to wean off me. she’ll take sips of white milk here and there but still prefers me.
    my son loves that episode … a few weeks ago he was exclaiming “i will never ever eat a tomato” at every meal. last night we just watched “may i have some of yours?” love that episode. and i love imagining that that’s how my little ones will be. charlie is SO patient!
