I’ve been very hesitant to cut Layla’s wild hair.
I think it was because I thought everyday I would do her hair in a cute style that she would proudly wear everyday.
I was seriously wrong. I would either forget to do her hair, she would cry when I put it up, or she would take it out right away.
So, I finally gave in and took the beast in to get chopped.
It was a spur of the moment decision.
And this is the first time I’ve shared pictures of the final cut.
I can’t believe what a big girl she is becoming (next week she will be 3!!!!!)
She is so my kid.
Mother’s Day is right around the corner, so we created a Berry Happy Cocktail over at One Martini. Be sure to check it out, it’s so very pretty (and delicious).

So adorable. I have had the hardest time cutting my youngest’s hair… all those blond curls. I’ve trimmed it and kept her bangs in shape. Tonight she wanted me to cut it into a bob… and then she chickened out. So another trim it was and a sigh of relief for mommy.

The baby curls are so cute, I’ll be sad when my youngest doesn’t have them anymore.

My grandmother owned a salon when I was her age. I couldn’t get enough.
She is adorable and it’s lovely that you waited to get it done until it could be a style and not just shorter blah.
She’s so pretty.

I bet it was fun to hang out at the salon when you were a kid.
What a sweet heart…and how did mama do through all of this? I was a wreck with my son’s

Now THERE is a girl who can properly rock some bangs. Adorables.
Kate recently posted..Now I’m wondering whether the blow-up doll can somehow recycle into a baby toy.
I’m not able to rock bangs but my kid seems to be doing pretty good with it so far.

She is such a doll! She does look so big – I can’t believe she’ll be 3 next week. Feels like it was just yesterday that she was turning 2. She is just the cutest little free spirit ever!
Elena recently posted..What Do You Speak For?
I can’t believe it either. My little baby is gone.
Loved her wild hair, but the cut looks great on her. Can’t believe how big she’s getting!

The cut was needed so she could see.
It looks really cute!

Thanks Nicole.
Oh my goodness!! She looks adorable! And yes, so grown-up. You did a great job taming “the beast”.

I’m just hoping the beast stays tamed for awhile now.
She’s so funny. Always into the makeup, always with the faces!

I never do anything with my daughter’s hair either– though this summer I vow to learn how to style it so cute so I can actually do it when she is in kindergarten.

I love doing little pigtails or the water fountain on the top of her head but it always seems I run out of time or forget in the mornings.
