IT'S A GIRL!!!!

WHAT!!????!?!? You must be mistaken Doctor, we don't make girls. My family doesn't know how. My parents have 10 grandchildren and 9 of them are boys. We (Chris and I) apparently do know how to make a girl, and let me tell you, we broke the mold! I didn't know what it meant to be the mother of a daughter.
The DRAMA!!! The clothes :) The Princesses and just plain girlishness. I love aspects of the girlishness. Others not so much. I call her Drama Daughter because that is the best way to describe her. EVERYTHING is dramatic. EVERYTHING. She is happy, and sad, and excited and loving, and sweet and that was just in the last 5 minutes. The roller coaster is a lot to handle.
However, she is so sweet and caring and says the cutest little things that the boys would never say.
Drama is funny!!! She says totally hilarious things. This weekend she was all dressed up and ready to go to the parade in her cute 4Th of July dress when Courtney said to her "You look beautiful" to which she replied "No I look Gorgeous" SNAP!! She is like this ALL the time.
Drama is:
Loud
Sweet
Funny
Charming
Endearing
Emotional
Imaginative
Smart
Bratty
Cute
Everything a little girl should be and more. I love her! She loves her Daddy. She has him wrapped around her little finger as she should. She LOVES the boys Mac's age, she has most of them wrapped as well. It's ridiculous the attention she gets, and knows how to work it. She makes me laugh, cry, and want to pull my hair out everyday, and I wouldn't change a thing. We can all use a little Drama in our lives. I'm proud to be her Mommy and I'm so happy we made a girl.

Inspired by Hair

When I was preggers with Delaney and found out she was a girl, I had grand visions of long wavy hair to style perfectly and decorate with ribbons and bows and fancy dresses, and how much fun it was going to be to dress her up. Chris even reminded me once that she isn't a doll. But I think most mothers of baby girls can relate especially if you had boys first. Well instead of that grand vision, I had a beautiful little girl with stick straight fine hair who doesn't really like poofy dresses. Oh well, I at least got the ribbons and bows part down right?
So the other day I was reading some blogs and I love to go to my friends and families links that they have on their blogs and see new and interesting people. In doing this I found the wonderful world of hair blogs! Yes that is correct hair blogs. Blogs done by mothers and dedicated to doing their little girls hair. They show pictures and give step by step instructions and these fancy do's. So I have actually been "doing" Delaney's hair this week and these are some pics to show off her do after her bath last night. I realize it is not perfect but I'm trying and she hates it :) I have some links over in my website section if you want to check some of them out. It also gave me some good ideas for my own hair. I have also contacted a couple of them and they are going to host some giveaways for me to get some advertising. I will let you know when they happen if you would like to enter, or share with your friends.
