Got her hair did

This weekend Carlee got her first haircut. Her hair wasn't long by any means. I was actually dreading cutting it because it's taken so long to get to the length it was at. But Carlee would constantly brush her hair out of her face and rub her eyes from her hair being in them. So I guess it was time for a little trim.

We went to Cool Cuts 4 Kids. I could have trimmed her bangs myself, but I wanted her to have the whole first hair cut experience. (Ok, so maybe it was more for me.) I was really nervous because Carlee has been throwing tantrums when she doesn't want to do something. She also gets shy and clingy around new people. Here I am taking her to an unfamiliar place to have some stranger play with her hair. But with Elmo playing on the TV, a cool little car to sit in, and double fisted with lollipops, Carlee did very well.

Here is a before picture:During:

Hopefully now that we trimmed her hair, it will grow faster.

Training complete

My last post was about this diva in training that Carlee has become. I guess its also called the "terrible two's". Well, I think she has completed her training and is a diva with a capital D! She has graduated from yelling "NO!" and holding her hands up to prevent the paparazzi (aka mom) from getting a good shot to attacking the camera and cameraman!!

Notice the attitude change when she realizes I'm recording her. At this rate I'm never going to be able to document the cute things. I'll only have her alter ego that comes out when the camera's on! I hope this passes soon! All I wanted was to record her shaking her booty while listening to the Handy Manny song!

Diva in training

I have a diva on my hands. Carlee no longer likes her picture taken. Not that she liked it before, but she never minded. Now you'd swear I was paparazzi and she was an A-list star. She'll wear her sunglasses into stores, the bank, etc. She gets mad if I laugh at her. (She cracks me up, I can't help it!!)

Yesterday I tried taking pictures of her to use on her birthday invitation. I knew it was going to be difficult but I thought I'd have some kind of decent picture. Nope. Carlee wasn't having it!

Here are the pictures where she's yelling "No!" Good thing she's not an A-list celebrity otherwise she probably would have spit in my face or tried to break my camera.
