Pippi Longstocking Meets Coolio

Mitchell never ceases to amaze me. Due to my weirdo work hours, it makes sense to shower and get ready at night. Nocturnal showers do not top my list of favorite things to do. I showered last night and was not feeling up to doing my hair. So, Mitchell being the sweet husband that he is, offered to do it for me. He convinced me that this would look amazing in the morning.

Which one of these is not like the other?
What is up with the random auburn?


Gangsta' Paradise anyone?
I felt like I could connect with Coolio on a whole new level

Unwrapping each braid was like unwrapping a present on Christmas morning. It just kept getting better and better ... not to mention bigger and bigger.

uh ... thanks Mitchell?

I shouldn't be surprised. But I am. That's some pretty impressive braiding. Hope you have a houseful of daughters so Mitchell can do their hair. So, did you wear your hair that way all day?

Oh man, I can't stop laughing. Good one, Mitchell. I just love the two of you!! I tried a similar trick on Friday with Elodie's hair, involving twisting rather than braiding, to try to get Elodie's hair to be curly for Morgan and Ashley's party. The results were somewhat similar. Tip: the polka-dot handband really helped. Mitchell--remember when you helped do my hair in rags in prep for my wedding? You should so try that on your highly cooperative wife. That could be amazing.

see, having five sisters really does come in handy... for a lot more than we realized!

Mitchell, stay in the kitchen and out of the beauty parlor. Nice try though!

Mitchell said...

I wish she would have worn it like that. It took 57 bobby pins to hold it all down in a pony tail.

Who wants to see a blog post of her doing my hair??? Maybe straighten it....

Mitchell with teased hair in a 50's bouffant. That's priceless.
