Daddy insisted that the hair covering her eyes wasn't working. While I agreed with him, I was reluctant to cut the hair since my preference would have been to let it grow out until it could be tucked behind the ears.
But I gave in the other day when I was watching her walk around the house barely able to see (that's an exaggeration). Poor thing. :(
(One of the benefits/drawbacks of being part of a family is that no one in the family ever really looks as you critically.)
I want to note that the PJs that Sadie has on, Novalee wore when she was three. Yep, it's true. It's kind of hard to believe. Sadie turns 18 months on the 9th of this month. 
But after looking at these pictures I realized her hair was really out of control.
Sadie was fine with me combing her hair down because she is used to me combing her hair and telling her what pretty hair she has. (I kind of think she is aware that Novalee has long, LONG pretty blonde hair and wants hers that way too.)
But she started to freak out and cry when I brought out the scissors which of course made trimming her bangs challenging.
I realize her bangs look choppy but they are actually pretty straight...according to me. :)
They aren't my favorite, but she does look more put together and I don't have to pull her hair back everyday.
We also think she looks a little more grown up. :)
Not to mention that she looks even more like my sister when she was a little girl. Someday one of my kids will look like me...I'm not giving up until one does!
Just kidding! :)
Despite Wes's facial expressions indicating otherwise, there are worse things in life than for her to look like me... *sniff* ...She is pretty cute... Given the circumstances, can I say that? :)
